    [Finance] Leasing a Tesla

    1st generation Roadster was tesla first car! They were 2 seaters based on the old Lotus Elise platform so it wouldnt be one of them. It may have been a model S and maybe even the plaid version which does 0-60 in 2 seconds!

    [Misc] Private health insurance - recommendations?

    I used Benenden a few years ago for a hernia, I seem to remember that there us no guarantee that they would be able to help and that I had to answer questions on how the hernia was affecting me on a day to day basis to assess the level of my need before they decided if they were able to see me...

    [Help] His Majesty King Charles

    None of these types of figures take in to account what earnings would be from royal assets without the monarchy in place. The crown estate and the duchies belong to the nation, not the royals, as do the palaces castles and crown jewels. We could sell and/ or continue to generate revenue from any...

    [Help] His Majesty King Charles

    I think the point that its not the current monarchy that attracts tourists to the UK is a valid one, the palace of Versailles is one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world, something like 15 million visitors a year, and they got rid of their Monarchy in 1848! Do you think that...

    Yes I used them to recover from an operation on my elbow, I think they are the company the montefiore use for post op rehabilitation. They seemed very good.

    [Help] His Majesty King Charles

    You have reviewed all other options for head of state? What’s wrong with the Irish or the German heads of state for example? There are a ton of different systems we could replicate from around the world, or we could come up with our own, you don’t have to have the US presidential system where so...

    [Misc] Electric Cars

    Excellent selective reporting, the original report from fox Chicago relates specifically to one charging station but there's this throw away comment 'that this situation has been mirrored all over chicago', they also fail to say what's caused it apart from a quote from a 'local chicago vehicle'...

    [Misc] Electric Cars

    I have owned only electric cars since 2015 and it funny because I used to be really aware of these types of things, in the case of my first electric car which was a Nissan leaf with 100 miles range it was perhaps for good reason! However I can honestly say now that the range of my car never even...

    [Food] Restaurant 2024 thread

    I have had a takeaway in the past from Fanoos and there is another similar restaurant up the road Mediterra Kitchen which is good as well and reasonable. Like you I cant afford to eat at the top end anymore and particularly if we, or the people we are with, don't pay attention to what they are...

    [Food] Restaurant 2024 thread

    Unless you have a shed load off disposable income I would imagine dinning out has become prohibitively expensive for most people with the prices that restaurants are charging. We went to Cin Cin in Hove before xmas and a meal for 4 came to £385! A couple of weeks ago a trip to the bottom floor...

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    Lewis Dunk is a club legend but if you are judging players based on the pinnacle of their careers, he's not even the best defender to have played for us. You would have to say that (based on his overall career) Wayne bridge was a better player, he won the premier league, FA cup and league cup...

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    He wasn't overlooked, he played every game in the 2004 euros. Injury problems kept him from being selected for subsequent tournaments at a time when Spain where the best team in the world. He played for us at the end of his career when he could hardly play due to injury, but If you take a...

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    Early days for him at Liverpool and still only 25! Could end up adding a premiership title to his world cup winners medal come the end of the season. He grabbed that lucky break at the world cup with both hands and put in consistent (and some man of the match performances) all the way to the final.

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    I will throw another name in to the mix...Alexis Mac Allister, our first ever world cup winner and one of the players of the tournament.

    [Albion] Sorry Lawro your time is up…..

    Vicente was nominated for the 2004 Ballon d'or and around that time recognised as one of the top players in the world, he has to be the greatest player to have pulled on an Albion shirt.

    [Albion] What’s the worst away day in the 92?

    I remember Rotherham being pretty grim, stadium was next to a scrap yard (which I believe was owned by the owner of the club). Seem to remember the options of where to go before the game were very limited and ended up in a working mens club which was a proper dive. It was quite funny as the...

    [Music] Iconic band locations

    I used to work at St Pancras Hospital and there was an old medieval church and churchyard next door which was a small but fascinating place, rich in history and very quiet/ rarely visited: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Pancras_Old_Church#cite_note-47 Anyway this was a location the Beatles...

    [Other Sport] Boxing Extravaganza Ce Soir

    For me last night bought some things in to perspective: Wilder is a shit boxer with one very potent weapon and not much else. Never beaten a top class heavyweight and must have been the most protected boxer of all time. This puts Fury's win over him in to perspective, we all fell for the...
