    How to fill the Amex

    There's only 19 home games in the Premier League. If you do get promoted then, even if the club freezes the price of season tickets, the cost per match has actually gone up significantly.

    Thats pretty impressive considering the Merchants copy of a credit or debit card transaction only show the last four digits of a customers card number....

    Sussex Country Pubs

    I'm back up in Sussex this weekend and the schedule is as follows. Tonight starting in the New Inn followed by the Griffin, tomorrow the Ram for breakfast, and the Blackboys for the evening. Sunday lunchtime will be the Half Way House before setting off back to Dorset. Bit concerned about the...

    I'm making bacon. Anyone else make their own food or drink stuff?

    Tried my own venison biltong this year with mixed results tbh. From an Ashdown Forest stag that I was asked to sort out as it was causing problems to local residents, most of the meat was fine, albeit a tad strong for some. Decided to try making biltong and the first batch was superb, strong...

    I'm making bacon. Anyone else make their own food or drink stuff?

    Are you smoking it hot or cold? I'm genuinely interested as I'm also a fan of home smoking and have never tried smoking pike due to their lack of natural oils. At a guess I'd assume cold smoked as surely hot smoked would dry it to the consistency of ropey old cotton wool? Or do you add...

    Pike aren't an oily fish, they're classed as whitefish. When cooking pike you need to pile on the butter else it's too dry, I'm amazed you enjoy hot smoked pike!

    Worst England players

    It's weird, my recollection was that it almost hit the corner flag. It did neither and in the Premier League we see misses like that every week these days yet they are forgotten by the end of Match of the Day. Odd how everyone's recollection of the event is far worse than it actually was. I'ts...

    Football Nicknames that piss me off!

    I've only ever heard the term "Mansex Stadium"* used when I've been at " Smellhurst Park"* * as bad as Citeh/Citeigh IMHO; just to keep the thread on track.

    The Amex Today

    To be fair, over the years Selhurst Park has hosted international football matches, Olympic matches, boxing and crap music concerts. Along with a number of relegation battles, admittedly.

    Could tonight be lowest league home attendance since Amex properly completed?

    I am let to believe that Brightons lowest league attendance as announced was 18,412 on 20 March 2012 where those attending enjoyed a 2 nil victory over Derby County. Going through checking the years, your attendances since moving to Falmer are pretty impressive.

    Constipated CHICKENS

    Chickens generally need 14 hours of daylight to keep laying. Your chickens ceasing to lay coincides pretty much with when the daylight hours dropped below that minimum. If you want them to continue laying, install a light on a timer.

    How could sea salt be certified organic? It's a mineral not an agricultural product. :D

    [Food] Reduced Fresh Mussels from Supermarket : Advice Needed

    But it is entirely true, you can suffer all the symptoms I described. The fact that the likelihood is small, as most mussels are grown in a clean environment, doesn't actually change anything. My point was that a 24 hour dose of the shits is certainly not the worst possible outcome from eating...

    [Food] Reduced Fresh Mussels from Supermarket : Advice Needed

    I make you very wrong on that. "Eating dead mussels can cause health problems like headache, vomiting, confusion, diarrhea, loss of memory, disorientation, choking feeling, trouble breathing, slurred speech, burning of mouth, face, arms, legs and neck. In severe cases of eating dead mussels...

    [Food] Reduced Fresh Mussels from Supermarket : Advice Needed

    Take them back, just because they were reduced in price they are still required to be "fit for purpose" which if dead they clearly aren't.

    [Food] Reduced Fresh Mussels from Supermarket : Advice Needed

    If they don't close when tapped then they are dead and really shouldn't be eaten.

    At what stage is it acceptable to get excited?

    Your first sentence isn't exactly backed up by what follows which suggests that five of the last six teams to be promoted were in fact in the top three at the end of September. On that basis.... :)
