    Trabocco Pesce Palombo - Fossacesia, Abruzzo A couple of weekends ago, the GLDHI and I went back to Abruzzo, this time ostensibly for a "wine tour" on the Sunday, which I'm probably going to write about at length, so hilarious was it. It probably won't appear on NSC though as there's no...

    [Food] Waitrose trials packaging free food..

    Surely they don't have much free food to package though? They'll go bust very quickly if they carry that malarkey on very long.

    [Food] What have you got on your sandwiches today?

    I’ll have to try that - I can see that might be tasty.

    [Food] What have you got on your sandwiches today?

    Is this “egg mayo AND salad cream” or “it’s either mayo OR salad cream, I dunno which”?

    Does anyone know if El Presidente is ill? I was expecting a contribution from him by now. I do hope he’s ok.

    [Technology] Electrosensitivity - Real or Not?

    In the UK, the vast majority of 5G will be running at between 3.4 and 3.6GHz. This is a very long way from the frequencies used in microwave ovens, which is what they refer back to. Again, it’s the power they should be focusing on, not the frequency itself. Put enough power behind any frequency...

    [Technology] Electrosensitivity - Real or Not?

    Some 4G networks in the UK operate at 2.6GHz (some of Vodafone for example). Microwave ovens typically operate at 2.45GHz, right in the middle of the unregulated ISM band of 2.4-2.5GHz, as does 802.11ab wi-fi. This nearness in frequency is what has lead to the concern about electrosensitivity...

    Yes, some of the stories - genuine reality TV this, they cover entire lives - are heartbreaking. Others are uplifting. Many are average. Just like real life. Utterly compelling.

    For reasons that aren’t entirely clear to me, I’ve always wanted to go to Morecambe. Also, Whitby. However, I’ve never managed it (unlike Whitby). You’ve just given me an incentive to rectify this glaring omission in my life. Ta!

    [Football] Supporting the wrong team.

    Their ski-jumping team are the oxymoronic Flying Kiwis. The West Indian swimming team are the Wet WIpes. Whereas the Queensland snooker team are known as the Cueing Q’s. Apparently, Putin promoted calling the national female beach volleyball team the Russian Dolls.

    Harumi-san said it was my 7th visit - and first alone. I got some special treatment, some dishes I’d never had before, and two that Toru-san got in specially for me, most noticeably “mollusc” which he only served to me. It was abalone - though he never confirmed it. He did however say it was...

    [News] Latest US mass shooting.....

    There’s a refreshing/desperately sad* lack of posts from NSC’s anti-Muslim brigade on this thread. It’s almost as though they don’t care about a dozen people being killed by a moron. Unless that moron happens to be off-white, wear a beard and follow a particular religion. But that can’t be...

    [Albion] 3 x 1901 seats for sale

    Not true - at least for WSM. Dead centre = Platinum + Edge of centre circle to half way to edge of box = Platinum Half way to edge of box to corners = Gold Very different pricing between the three.

    [Albion] 3 x 1901 seats for sale

    As well as the (relatively few?) 1901ers who park there, the club sponsors (eg AMEX) have spaces there, as well as the box holders (dunno how many spaces/box). Perhaps match sponsors also get some spaces. Player’s friends also park there (although they might be in the single section closest to...
