    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Stoke City *** Official Match Thread ***

    I cant believe these pundits commentators - they seem to have a collective blindness. Murray falls on the ball with his hands after the penalty shout and it never crosses the goal line. They are all looking at it and saying its either a corner or a goal kick. It never crossed the line! Its...

    [Technology] I'm thinking of buying a Camera Drone - advice needed

    I find this "if it lands in my garden I'm going to smash it to smithereens" mentality rather odd. Do you do the same if a kid kicks a football into your garden, i.e. run out with the kitchen knife, stab it, jump up and down on it etc?

    A Question about Seagulls TV (Player)

    Would that be the 'Ask the club' sub-forum that hasn't been around since dinosaurs roamed the earth and Bruno was a promising under-21?

    Detectorists BBC4 Thursday at 10pm

    Love the Detectorists - absolutely favourite thing on telly from last couple of years. Such laid back and subtle comedy. Only discovered there was a new series when I noticed my box had helpfully recorded it withuot me knowing. What a beautiful and unusual ending to the first episode.

    [Drinking] Fasten Sealtbelts sign on on a plane - and you really REALLY have to go...

    I thought that as long as they have made a reasonable (verbal) effort to keep you in your seat with your belt fastened, they have satisfied their liability requirements. If you then get injured whilst defying the instructions, they are not legally responsible. I think that's all they really...

    [TV] Audi TV Advert

    The clowns Audi advert which is all over the telly at the moment, bothers me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSUF7-xQHrA The theme is that the road is full of clowns and that Audi's are supposed to be clown-proof. In the ad we see an Audi driver reversing out of a garage onto a main road...

    [Misc] Minor annoyances

    They weren't banned at all, they were just deemed too complicated for idiot joe public to operate. When the tanks full, the supply cuts out in just the same way as it does if youre standing there holding it. The advantage is precisely that you can walk away, check your oil, wash your...

    [Travel] Car Advise

    Check the clutch for slipping on a test drive. When stationary, put it in 4th gear, foot on brake, give it some revs (with outside of your brake foot) and engage the clutch as if you were pulling away. It will stall the engine if clutch is ok. If you get you foot all the way off with engine...

    [Misc] Minor annoyances

    Well I want pumps like they have in America and we used to have here when it was attendant service - where you just latch the squeezy bit on the lever, allowing it to fill until it cuts out when full. Seems we are regarded as too stupid to understand these.in this country.

    [Football] Fixed odds betting machines.

    Your point is well made, but its still not acceptable to prey on the weak as a way to make a living. They are doing more than providing a service here. These machines are not for the average person to enjoy as a leisure activity - they have designed them specifically to extract money from...

    [Football] Fixed odds betting machines.

    There's no need to do that. The laws of probability do it all for you - in just the same way that the existence of the green zero on the roulette table achieves a profit for the house.

    Well it may do if you get mugged by an addict who needs more funds to feed his habit.

    [Football] Fixed odds betting machines.

    I can see no rational justification for allowing these things to exist at all in a civilised society. They exist for the sole purpose of extracting money from people who are vulnerable or who have an uncontrollable addiction. The gambling companies make vast amounts of money out of their...

    [Misc] Graffiti on roadsigns

    I don't think the OP is talking about tagging which is mindless on all levels. Changing a sign to a humorous alternative though is valid comedy in my book (but only if its funny). Some house names are begging for it.
