I think that is linked to a 'write to your MP' angle

Yes I agree, but having been slowly convinced after the fact on the effectiveness of a few things that have had simplistic messaging, it seems that could be the answer. The post US election post mortem by the dems is gradually realising that the simpler rep campaign around cost of living being...

'No shit Sherlock' you might say to the above statement as shown on https://crimespotlight.uk/ but where do we go next so that reporting a crime turns into real action that reduces re-occurence? Nearly everyone knows someone affected by crime that has led to inaction / no resolution. I'm sure...

Samson's surname also represents the limited Choice for viewing SorF (this one for NSC cryptic crossword puzzlers)

Put it on the trophy shelf alongside your Fab prediction

@Zeberdi got his way!

Northern away (but not the hand-severers) 1st choice Accrington Stanley (has to be one of football's greatest names) 2nd choice Wigan (Get on Lisa Nandy's radar) 3rd Morecambe 4th Sunderland Shame Carlisle are out as that would have been a beut.

Alphabetical order is such a wonderful thing

I thought the atmosphere on Fri was ok from my WSL, near to NS perspective and there was a decent amount of getting behind the team as it got tighter in the second half. I don't think there was quite so much of extra rousing once the subs happened partly as everyone was a bit tense and could see...

Is today’s word product placement?

Can't wait for this one. Was down in Brighton two days early just to make sure. Big night ahead and ready for 2nd place celebrations.

I am coming down from Scotland for it, despite tv coverage telling me not to, so I apologise in advance for any lurgi that puts on it. But being an optimist I am already envisioning seeing the Albion goals from my seat and the 2nd place celebrations at the end. Plus I'm staying in Brighton so...

I'll go for an optimistic 15 (though agree that it will all still be a fluke for the media) - but a points predictor thread for those games would be interesting...

It sounds like NSC should lead a bid for some levelling up funding to build affordable homes (and a couple of ploughmans-par-excellence pubs) for Albion supporters within the Amex hinterland.

I would think very hard before any move to Scotland. Property isn't cheap in the (nice bits of the) cities. There's a continual scarcity of decent stuff - that's why there are so few 'Location Location' episodes in Scotland. One of the main reasons is that there is far less turnover of property...

What a way to get a 90th minute equaliser too.

Have just gone back to same numbers every week after ten years or so of lucky dips. Have won £5000 once plus a myriad of tiny wins once since lottery started but spent way, way more. I've never begrudged the cost though and just see it as a dreamer's fee, notwithstanding the very, very long odds.

I thought it was a bit Chile today. Now I know why.

Winds from the West by Alistair McCall Smith - seems like a bit of a campus / Stoner type novel at first and turns into a simple-ish relationships / human story - but very easy, short read. Probably not for thriller addicts unless you want a break.
