Riddle & Finns (the one on the beach), BN1 “Welcome to the best restaurant in town”, said our waiter, Louis (pronounced Louie) as he presented the menu to us. “Yes, we’re looking forward to it. We’re having a fishy weekend; we’re off to Little Fish Market tomorrow night too”. His face fell...

Just saying.

Keep looking. There’s a very good chance that the club will release small blocks of tix as the game approaches. In any event, it’s a racing certainty that they’ll open up the ticket exchange and people who have ST and can’t go will list their tix. If you check once a day, You’re bound to pick...

At home, yes. At the football, it’s beer. Or whisky when I’ve drunk 3 pints. Chateauneuf du Pape can be a lovely drop, depending on grower & vintage; I’ll come up with a short list of suggestions - £250/bottle ok as a budget? :smile:

Sure. Oh, wait, I wasn’t offered one :flounce:

One of the handful of wines that can lay claim to being the greatest wine of the 20th Century.

I do understand, and largely agree with, your point. I do wonder if it’s not somehow a little reckless to try to play expansive football away against the big 6 though. I think it would be more pragmatic and likely lead to a better end position (even if only on GD) if we were a bit more defensive...

No, but the difference in those two scorelines in 2015/16 would have meant we’d have been promoted a year earlier than we were, instead of Boro.

Did you get BG’s permission before posting a portrait of him on NSC? Nice photo.

At least four. So far. A friend told me that anyway.

Just. But don’t do any OS updates if you don’t want to install malware provided by Apple that will destroy your battery life and render the device almost completely inoperable through slowness. The fact that they did this in order to generate higher demand for upgrades to a later model iPhone...

Were you googling “Kim Kardashian booty” to get that website up?

While they may not claim it will solve the queues, they’re definitely leading with that as an objective. Literally the first words of the press release are “Fans can expect to see speedier service at the Amex in future...”. Later, they say “The new model which relies on the speedy contactless...
