Put another way ... over the last two years, I've got used to watching the Albion NOT being the proverbial "good day out, ruined by 90 mins of football" ;-)

Our luck (and, more importantly, performance) may well improve, yes. But entertaining yesterday??? Only in the way that error-strewn am dram would entertain after two years watching the RSC.

A lovely thread. Roy, I salute you. And NSC, you are at your best at moments like this.

Likewise, and have emailed. The autoresponse says they'll deal with it in 5 or 6 days. Ho hum.

In person? Are you sure?

Waste of time how? It must be nice where you are in the 1950s, but to some of us, it's more than a little odd that the biggest annual sporting event in the world only has women on the podium to look pretty.

Cheeky. But it's not gonna work :)

Nice trolling again, @Pork Pie. But we're not going to let you wind us all up this time, la, la, la.

I mean 0844

If anyone has an iPhone and a BT landline, there is a BT app (SmartTalk) which enables you to use your landline's call allowance while calling from ur mobile. Well worth doing, as 0870, 0845 & 0840 calls are dearer on mobile contracts.

This is EXACTLY what's going on here.

Obviously, once you become poor, you should flog your flatscreen telly down the pub, and then spend weeks scouring flytipping sites for a small-screened, bulky black & white old school telly - or face the wrath of Lenny and his ilk.

Did she say, "Questions, I need answers"?

I think Stat Bro is on to something with Mr Costa. Remember that opening scene when a butterfly came back to life. At first, I thought it was a figurative bit of the opening titles. But no, the butterfly did come back to life - and strong enough to break through the glass. However, Costa tried...

Ian, you seem to be turning into right-wing rent-a-myth. To cover the possibility that you really mean the stuff you post and are at risk of jumping ship to the USA to join the Tea Party wing of the Republican Party, let me share something...

Beyond all the 'do we need oil?' discussion, the killer fact is that, based on mainstream science, we (humans) can only afford to burn less than a quarter of the oil, coal and gas reserves we've already identified - or we head into 'dangerous climate change' territory. So the idea of exploring...

Wow. A six page NSC thread about something some (heroic) women are doing. And not one poster has commented on their looks. I might just cry with joy.

It is odd, though. Even during the amazingly successful naughties, when we relied on teamwork and the sum was very much greater than the parts, you looked at the team and saw outstanding performers. Now, I look at Sussex's Championship team and see solid journeymen. I'm delighted we're top of...
