They have a trappistry? I thought that was a place where Belgian monks brewed beer. At least it will make a trip to Bordeaux worthwhile, now that you know that they have some sort of local drink to look out for.

shirely? shirley not.

On Radio Four - coming up soon. It's about the training offered to young players about avoiding sexual improprieties.

If you're going to be late, use Mithras House on Lewes Road.

Why would we want it? The point of independence, shirley, is that it rids us of any obligations to be neighbourly.

Blimey! It turns out that I knew Ed Miliband's ex=girlfriend's mother, Claudia Flanders. Why wasn't I told earlier?

No doubt. But it's a great way to ensure that the State gets to subsidise businesses who like to keep their contribution to wage costs as low as possible.

At least when we loosed at the Goldstone, the opposition were sometimes capable of knocking eight goals past us. Much more entertaining.

"Open play" only happened when Poyet was manager. These days we have "This guy doesn't have a clue".

There is something gloriously fascinating about watching the efforts of C-list politicians to engage each other in conversation at 4am. They've all been up for 22 hours and have suddenly realised that there is no point in continuing the whiney squabbling that has preoccupied them for the...

We had a nest of woats or steasels in a woodpile in our garden last year. Delightful creatures.

I rarely see any point in handing out an infraction for an inappropriate post. It doesn't seem to improve behaviour. A binfest, on the other hand, is a good mechanism for ensuring that the offensive idiots who clutter up this board have every opportunity to reveal their personality defects...

Roz and I were once on a crowded Coastway West train and who should show up to sit opposite us, but ... David Bellotti. Trains can be dangerous places.

Maybe it's not a lot different from home fans mixing with away fans?

They were Bob Marley fans. Is this love? I reckon it is.

Has anyone noticed the Tory plot to talk up Nicola Sturgeon in order to minimise the number of seats that Labour win in Scotland? And they have the NERVE to criticise Labour for being prepared to cozy up to the SNP!

The big question is whether English voters who were impressed with Nicola Sturgeon thought that that Miliband performed better than Cameron - because that won't be reflected in the YouGov poll.

No. It would be the railway line between Tunbridge Wells and London. It's quicker to travel from Brighton to London than from Tunbridge Wells to London. Adding in the journey time between Brighton and Tunbridge Wells would make the overall journey really unattractive.
