    Traffic wardens' strike could mean free parking this weekend

    I hope the Seafront Business Association and others who have decided to make a big publicity push about this "possible" strike, to encourage more people to come to Brighton on the off-chance that there will be a parking free-for all, have weighed up the risks that might arise if (as often...

    Birmingham away kit: class, crap or meh?

    Birmingham City have to do no more than get a kit that is better than the one the Villa wear. #notdifficult.

    How long do the P&R buses run for after the game?

    And you'll hear an announcement to the effect that "the last park and ride buses will be leaving in X minutes".

    Cyclist Vs Taxi

    From all the on-street parking that is going on, it seems to be a part-time bus lane (or, to be more precise, NOT a bus lane at all at the time of the incident). And, if it's not a bus lane, then it's incredibly unhelpful to suggest to cyclists and other road users that it is a cycle lane. At...

    A thread full of Albion players who's careers peaked while in our stripes.

    Can we add a third category? Players who went on to better things, without playing for the Albion. Lionel Messi, for one.

    Cyclist Vs Taxi

    The road design doesn't help. A shared taxi/bus/cycle lane will always present problems and incidents like this will happen. Proper segregation of cyclists from taxis and buses (as, for example, in much of Lewes Road, Brighton) gives opportunities to both cyclists and motorists to drive more...

    Autumn statement today ...... hero’s or villains?

    Credit should be given to those thousands of Labour Party supporters who voted for Corbyn and his anti-austerity ticket. This demonstrated to Osborne and Cameron just how unacceptable the planned austerity package would be. So they backed down. Go Jezza!

    Autumn statement today ...... hero’s or villains?

    Does his U-Turn involve abandoning the new National "Living Wage" that was due to be introduced in April 2016?

    Sausages - what's your favourite flavour and types?

    Home made salami, as created by my landlord in Italy, who started with a dead pig on the kitchen table.

    Smart TV advice

    My telly is currently showing Crystal Palace playing what looks like a team of ten goalkeepers. Is there anything I can do to cure this? BensGrandad?

    What is the Referee's official line for pulling and pushing at corners.

    Nah. Do exactly the opposite. Apply the laws of kickboxing to all interactions inside the penalty area. If it's "great fun" you are after, that will improve the game no end.

    If March, Hemed, and JFC is the answer...

    Nah. Why not just come out and say it? Bloom - needs replacing. He obviously hasn't got a clue how to run a football club that will keep you happy.

    Brighton and Hove Albion Monopoly

    I like the idea of the bloke with the whistle wearing a peaked cap. Is this a new rule that the FA are planning to introduce?

    What does a Swegway do??

    The use of Mobility Scooters on pavements and footways (and roads) is governed by a whole set of regulations that are controlled by the DVLA.

    What does a Swegway do??

    You're right to say that it is not up to the Police to decide what is legal. You're equally right to say that it is up to the Courts. Or, for that matter, Parliament.

    What does a Swegway do??

    Mobility Scooters that are capable of travelling between 4 and 8 mph have to be registered with the DVLA, before they can be used on the roads. If the maximum speed is 4 mph or less, or they travel at 4 mph or less, they can't be used on the road. Electric bikes (or tandems or trikes) have to...

    Any messages for Scott McGleish today?

    The traditional message only really works if it is chanted by thousands of Albion fans. If you are on your own, you might try telling him that it was Carl Griffiths wot dun it.

    Is your tree up yet??

    Trees go up on Christmas Eve, after dark, and come down on Twelfth Night. To do otherwise is WRONG, and as bad as thinking that the first window of an advent calendar should be opened on 1 December.
