    A quiz on clubs nicknames

    This for me. Like plenty of others, I got the Hearts question wrong.

    You good Brighton people...

    The experience of the Valley Party was an inspiration to the Seagulls Party. That's just one of the reasons I've signed. Another is the fact that my grandad was a Charlton supporter, despite the fact that he lived within walking distance of The Den. Or maybe it was BECAUSE he lived within...

    Supermarket 'Use by' dates

    When I worked in a pharmacy (decades ago!), we used to stock diabetic chocolate Easter eggs. We sold a few but, when Easter came round, the unsold ones were taken off the shelves and put into a storage cupboard for next year. I guess some of the unsold eggs must have been 'put away for next...

    [Drinking] Why is Harveys so inconsistent??

    The whole point of real ale is the challenge to achieve quality and consistency. So much depends on how it is kept in the pub. Are the pipes clean and well rinsed? Was it served from the cellar anyway? Or was the barrel stored on a shelf behind the bar? How old was the barrel? And which...

    I am watching an episode of Meldrew on Gold - he is reading a paper that has the backpage

    http://www.attilathestockbroker.com/footpoem.php Tuesday September 8th 1989 began like any other day in the footballing calendar, with newly-discovered Team of the 80s, Crystal Palace, travelling to Anfield to test their Colditz-like defensive qualities and mesmerising attacking skills against...

    GOSBTS, I know I'm going to be flamed/ banned or worse but here goes...

    What's all this nonsense about it being a WW1 song? It was written in 1907 to celebrate the wedding of the composer's sister-in-law to a Captain in the Royal Sussex Regiment.

    Can you actually read words on a screen?

    "Going up" means travelling on the train in the general direction of Wembley Stadium, does it not? The idea that we'll get promotion AND win the cup is simply preposterous.

    [Food] Huddersfield guest pie: Chicken Jalfrezi

    I certainly wouldn't touch a fish finger sandwich myself but, from time to time, I have to adopt certain 'lifestyle choices' in order to keep Lady B happy. Tea is another commodity I find myself paying for, even though I never drink the stuff.

    [Food] Huddersfield guest pie: Chicken Jalfrezi

    Although, if you want a pie AND a fish finger sandwich, you often have to queue up at two separate kiosks.

    [Misc] NSC login issue

    This reminds me of Tory MP, Julian Critchley, who was asked "If Margaret Thatcher was run over by a bus, who would you want to become prime minister?" His answer? "The bus driver".

    Charlie Oatway

    My interactions with Charlie Oatway tell me that he's a decent bloke. Ian Hart once lined me up to take part in his phone-in programme and I accepted the invitation. As soon as I sat down next to Harty, Charlie turned up and I discovered that Harty wanted a head to head debate about the rights...
