    O/T Baby Monitors

    My brother and his wife had this problem when their daughter was a baby, they live in a fairly small village and at least one other family had the same monitor as they did...at times you could hear the so called phantom baby, which was quite odd when theirs was in the same room as you were...

    O/T Baby Monitors

    Blimey, with Albion fans being this prolific in the reproduction department we will need more than just the second tier and corners filling in! Great tip about the alzheimers too...all the very best to those about to render sleep a thing of the past!

    BT- Ultimatum

    Unsurprisingly nothing was heard from BT by 1600...looks like Virgin have just gained a customer without even trying, mainly because their service doesn't go anywhere near BT infrastructure, or so I am led to believe.

    BT- Ultimatum

    A couple of weeks ago someone digging a hole on the outskirts of the city cut through a BT cable with a mole, this resulted in most of the BT customers losing their phone lines and broadband for about ten days. Somewhat surprisingly, considering my neighbours had been cut off, my phone remained...

    BT- Ultimatum

    That sounds harsh but relatively fair, if I make an appointment for a certain time then I will turn up for it, alternatively if someone is coming to see me then I will be waiting for them at the appointed hour. I am thinking of combining phone and broadband and moving to Virgin. They have...

    BT- Ultimatum

    Last week my home phone line developed a serious crackle on the line, so bad that you couldn't hear a caller clearly and at times my broadband crashed every minute or so. On Thursday evening I phoned BT and reached their call-centre, probably located in India judging by the accent of the...

    Post counts: Yay or nay?

    Sadly I have to agree with this too, we have recently seen a spate of trolls posting rubbish about players joining, etc, as their first or second post...if you haven't been on NSC for a while, which can happen, then there are few other ways of sorting the rubbish from the...well, less rubbish!

    What is the worst child name you have heard of?

    I bet her family were pleased when she turned down the offer of marriage from Dave Lingus!

    The German Grand Prix

    This is my hope too, a wet race could play right into his hands.

    Who is here on a Sunday AVOIDING chores?

    Pretty much just that, but a little bit more. Last year I raked out a load of moss and re-seeded those bits, this time it is to put some grass on a patch that was previously under a now removed tree. On the packet it says to mix the seed in with some soil but also to prepare the ground by...

    Non footballing supposed celebrities who might rock up to The Amex on Saturday...

    Anne Nightingale, the DJ, who declared unrequited love to the Albion when the club was in the first division...but seems to have gone pretty quiet on the subject in the intervening couple of decades!

    Who is here on a Sunday AVOIDING chores?

    Nope, been for my Sunday morning swim, came home and tackled a pile of ironing. Just going to chill for a bit with TMS, have lunch, watch the Grand Prix then head out to do some gardening...the grass won't cut itself, plus there is a patch that needs re-seeding.

    The hacking plot thickens...

    I would agree with this, but when self-regulation has so clearly failed then some form of censure is inevitable. I find it hard to believe that at no stage anyone asked whether what they were doing was wrong. Freedom of the press is a vital part of any developed society, but at the same time...

    The hacking plot thickens...

    Wasn't someone fired from the Sun for a similar offence?

    Is this the worst summer EVER?

    Not the worst, yet, that honour is reserved for 2007 when it tipped down with rain so hard that our city flooded and we were left without fresh running water for about ten days.

    Estate Agents

    My only gripe with estate agents was during the purchase of my first house. I had a price agreed and accepted, with a deposit paid to them. Imagine my surprise when I walked past it a few days later to see an auctioneers board had replaced the sold sign. I viewed this as a cunning attempt to...

    What players do you wish you'd seen play LIVE.

    For me it would have to have been Johann Cruyff, who finished his career before I started watching football, what he could do with the ball was quite magical...though the whole Dutch team were pretty good back then.

    The Sun hacked by 4chan

    Are they planning on extinguishing the Sun?

    Albion prospects for this season being discussed on Five Live tonight!

    They are talking about Patrick Viera at the moment...not a sniff of anything even vaguely Albion related.

    News of the World Whistleblower found dead.

    Remember the prediction from Rebekah Brooks about the severity of what has happened, that we would need to look back in a year from now, I have a dreadful feeling that the mud-slinging and scandal haven't even started yet!
