    F1: - Alonso Free to Go

    Ron Dennis has publically stated he has an exit strategy that began with the sale of 49% of the company to Mercedes, then him and the Owner of Tag Heur selling half of their remaining share to a Bahrain investment group last year. He is grooming Martin Whitmarsh to take over in a couple of...

    F1: - Alonso Free to Go

    I would be very surprised if Alonso left. There really is nowhere for him to go that will provide him with a championship winning car. The only viable team would be renault, but they are struggling with a poor car this year, that I doubt even Alonso could win in, and good cars usually take a...

    of the cities in the poll it has to be Manchester, spent some of the best years of my life there as a post-grad student. never lived in Brighton, so can't reallycompare. Would vote for Bath if it were in there, but then again too many of the residents think its a bloody musuem that should be...

    Who on here saw the Albion play at the Goldstone?

    On and off in late 70's, regularly in early 80's, culminating in season ticket for couple of years. Then moved away from Sussex (uni etc) and then very sporadically.

    Rio de Janeiro

    Been to Rio 3 times (once for 3 months work), but much prefer B.A. Earlier posts about what to do in Rio is spot on, just don't have anything of value on show, and be careful at night. We always stayed in Ipanema rather than Copa, which is a bit more upmarket and a little safer. Often if you get...

    Good things in your location

    Small Village in Gloucs. Countryside .. 5 mins walk with the dogs and I'm up on the hills overlooking the Severn Valley in one direction and the southern end of the cotswolds in the other. Only 40 mins drive from the Hallowed Turf of the Recreation Ground in Bath (and close to some minor rugby...

    the different view directions were taken at quite different times, as on the E-W view there are two cars parked outside of my parents house, but they ain't there on the E-W view

    Its a Mad world

    Obviously holiday home purchasers pricing locals out of the housing market is a big problem, but the attitude of these "Nationalists" is somewhat laughable. Trying to reduce or rid the place of tourists is kinda biting hand that feeds, bearing in mind there is now little if any local industry.

    Looking Very Thundery over Seaford Way

    Seriously thundery looking in Gloucestershire, but nothing happening yet. Loudest noise I heard tonight, was out walking the dogs on the hills and the Red Arrows went past ... nearly s**t myself, thankfully the dogs were on the leads, or they'd have been off!!

    When pets die

    Really sorry to hear of your loss TB. I have massive respect for anyone who adopts greyhounds. My missus would love to adopt one, but we no longer have the room with our expanding pack of GSP's. At some point in the future I'm sure you'll give another one a happy home to see out its latter...
