    [Food] Banoffee Pie...

    "Often"? At the risk of starting another debate it's not a pie if it hasn't got a top. Should be called Banoffi Tart.

    [Palace] #cpfc

    Exactly. Of the 5 numbers I've checked so far all 5 were wrong. I'm stopping there.

    [Technology] If you could afford it would your next car be an EV?

    Most days I don't drive at all and many of them no more than 10 miles. We have four cars between the two of us and three of them are V8 guzzlers that we love driving and listening to. The total cost of purchases was just over £10k. It's going to take some persuading to invest in an EV. Yes of...

    [Music] Great “worst” albums

    Mine too. The Wall, which is a great album, is my least favourite of theirs

    [Politics] Tory voters- where do you go from here?

    It's not the voting system that is feeding us with governments we don't like. It's the party system that supplies us with a conveyor belt of like-minded career politicians.

    [Misc] Music for your wake …

    Although I have my funeral sorted I haven't done a playlist for the wake. About 5 years ago for my mum's funeral (she was being buried so no need for a curtain tune) after her death my sister and I compiled a playlist for the wake. The songs were taken from her collection so they were songs that...

    [News] Huw Edwards

    Having read the sentencing report it does feel like he was treated leniently within the guidelines. His depression and alcohol consumption was considered mitigation as a mental disorder, he was not treated as having purchased the material because the payment was determined after the transaction...

    [Misc] Moon Landing, are YOU are conspiracy theorist?

    They were brilliant. Sorry, just checked, you can of course still but them.

    [Albion] Have we, at some point in our seasons in the EFL/EPL, occupied every position between 1-92?

    According to Tim Carder and Roger Harris's book (and confirmed by 11v11) we were briefly 5th on 22 September 1981 after beating Wolves.

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    The last position is not unimaginable. The athlete could apply for therapeutic use exemption as with other drugs (think Chris Froome). While it might not apply under current rules (I don't know) who is to say it won't be allowed?

    My point was that some athletes are willing to take testosterone. With the move to easier transition, such as in Australia, it's not much of a step. And just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean you should not take steps to stop it happening.

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    Doping in athletics - there are plenty of examples of athletes on this list who were willing to take testosterone.

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    That surely depends on the process. Australia has recently amended legislation so that sex markers on birth certificates and passports can be changed based on a letter from a friend: no medical report, no surgery. I think Spain has something similar. This change will become more widespread with...

    Cis is not a neutral word. Using it to qualify man or woman necessarily implies that trans women are women, which is not accepted by everyone.

    [Football] Sutton United Ladies put their head above the parapet

    Strangely the main story here has been overlooked. Namely that, if the reported story is correct, some female members of the team said "no". And weren't afraid of the consequences.
