    [Albion] Reading Away

    Rang ticket office today. Sods law for me. Apparently posted on 11th but never arrived. Now got to go to the Reading ticket office on Saturday to pick up replacements. B******s.

    Still waiting for my tickets. Will visit Amex on Thursday if they have not arrived by then.

    The United States of America

    Exactly this. Have been there 9 times, all over the country, and loved it. However, have reservations about gun culture, police shooting black men to name a couple.

    Avios Points

    Having used most of mine just got 22000 left. That won't get me far.

    Canada

    Only spent a day and half there after travelling up from Seattle. Really liked it. We did just the usual touristy things like a trolley tour, Stanley park. Gas Street, in the short time. Thought it was a really nice city.

    [Albion] Great game today

    Must say I agree with BG about the extra time but hey ho. As everyone has basically said we missed Stephens and Kayal desperately to day, but in my opinion we also need a more consistent striker. Never even thought Baldock or Hemed would score today.

    Final round on Pointless.

    Ah but what Peter Taylor were they talking about. What if you said Peter Taylor but not the Clough mate. The other one. How did they differentiate? Would he have been pointless?

    Beggars : do you give money to them ?

    I was entering Tesco in Palmeira Square and a rough tramp guy walked in before me. There was a bouncer type on the door and he followed the tramp all around and was really trying to get him to leave the shop. He was looking at the cheapest packets of biscuits. He really looked as though he...

    Sky Sports News advice please.

    Looks a good set up. I really like the fast VM broadband so want to keep, but it is the TV price that bugs me. Mix and match like that could be the answer.

    Boarding Passes & Duty Free - I thought we didn't need to show them?

    But are they cheaper than the High Street. Many a time my wife has informed the perfume stalls that the prices are cheaper in Debenhams/Boots etc. They just shrug their shoulders and look for the next fool. I personally never buy in duty free, they rely on you being in a good mood because you...

    Sky Sports News advice please.

    Ah, that was the stream I saw and wondered about. Time I spoke to VM for a better deal or ditch.

    EU and Turkey

    Like the humour. Yes, it would be an absolute disaster for Europe. My thinking is to head for the exit with each day that passes.

    Sky Sports News advice please.

    I'm with Virgin Media, does that apply?

    Sky Sports News advice please.

    Am really fed up with the cost of my TV package and thinking of cancelling the contract. Reviewing all the channels they offer I realise that the overall majority I never watch and have no interest in. However, I would miss Sky Sports News. I notice that there are some streaming sites on the net...

    emmigrating? What were your experiences? specifically New Zealand

    Friends of ours emigrated to NZ about 10 years ago. They got jobs ok and were living near Wellington close to their daughter and family. However, although very sociable, they struggled to form decent friendships as at their age all the locals were well established. So they felt a little...

    When you next drive along A27 by pass to Amex......

    Amazed my original thread has been resurrected. Sadly, I don't think things are a lot better. Yes, the A27 to Amex did show some improvement but still see the same problem on lots of roads.

    Bob Seger and Hollywood nights.

    Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band are one of my great favourites. "We've Got Tonight" and "More than a Number" are superb also.

    Brighton i360 construction update.

    Have to say my view on the whole project is swinging to your point of view. I really wanted to like it but now think the siting is wrong and not now impressed with the design. The original computer produced vision was of a much more slender pole and much more elegant. I know it is not finished...

    That's Entertainment!

    Exactly this.
