A question for the car insurance experts please... (I know there are a few on here) I have a crack spreading down my windscreen (right into driver's eye-line) after a lorry threw up a stone the other day. I have a £95 excess for a replacement windscreen on my policy (with Flow which has just...

OBVIOUSLY, the soppy-hearted NSC regulars all got their thoughtful Valentine's gestures sorted WEEKS ago. For those who didn't, this is a reminder to get your skates on if you want to avoid the doghouse. This is also an opportunity for curmudgeons to vent their dislike of St Valentine's day...

We’re looking to book our first holiday since 2018 (pre kids!) so our requirements are a little different now with a 1yr old and a 3yr old. To make it more complicated, we’re joining forces with my sister-in-law and her 2 teenage kids... It’s a tricky task to find someone suitable for...

As it's a slow Monday and Christmas is coming, soooooo... What's your go-to joke that would put the average Christmas cracker to shame (yes, it's a low bar). I'll start: What do you call a snowman with a six-pack? An abdominal snowman. HONK! Do your best / worst!

Well, who is it / are they? :) It seems an odd reason for a pub to block the site on their WiFi, but there you go.

In a change to normal route in, I have the opportunity for a lift that could drop me on the 29 bus route, anywhere on the A26 between The Cock Inn and Uckfield. Further south is better for the lift giver, so can anyone who usually gets the 29 tell me if the service is ever full north of Lewes...

I had forgotten this was on, so now have TMS on while I 'work'. I would LOVE to be sat in the stands at Sophia Gardens with a nice cold beer right now. Currently 49/0 from 9 overs (Malan 34 off 33, Brook a rather pedestrian 14 off 21). Should be a cracker, this. Are any of NSC's cricket...

Nah, me either. Personalised number plates are IMO utter w@nk anyway, but they should at least work on some way or another. This shower is in the car park of Uckfield hospital - presumably the owner is here getting their taste deficiency checked out. Seems terminal to this untrained eye.

13/1 available (Betfair) on Enciso having 2+ shots on target in the first half... Assuming he starts, I'd say 13/1 is decent for 2 on target in the first half - as we've seen already, he does like a pop at goal (21/10 for just 1 shot on target in the first half). The bet will be refunded if he...

"What were you thinking?" I hear you say... Well, it took us a little while the first time round, so we thought we'd get back on the horse at the earliest time we'd like to conceive... OBVIOUSLY it happened first time. :lol: I now have 7 and a bit months to get set for Babygeddon II (this time...

I've always considered myself good at recognising/remembering faces*, so read this article about a super-recogniser with interest https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jan/16/id-keep-it-on-the-down-low-the-secret-life-of-a-super-recogniser There's a link on the article to this test to see...

Might be quiet thanks to Dry January (hats off if you’re doing it - I’ll be doing Feb as it’s shorter :p) Nothing says Friday (in winter) quite like a chocolate orange imperial stout. Cheers all - have a good weekend!

Are there any archaeology buffs on NSC who can recommend a good book on Lewes (& surrounding areas) archaeology? It's for a birthday present (for an adult) and an internet search has come up pretty blank thus far. I might have to resort to buying her membership of the Sussex Archaeology Society...

With England's match against Croatia rapidly approaching, which 10 lesser mortals would you pick to accompany our Ben on Sunday? I'm enjoying the fact that Sky haven't yet found the time to ask the work experience kid in the graphics to give Ben a 3 Lions badge :) Not much in it for either...

For no other reason than the joy of football on a grey Easter Monday. For me, this bad boy has it all - a spectacular goal, an injury time equaliser, scored by a goalkeeper no less AND a great celebration. Over to you!

90 today. NINETY. Jeeez... If someone had asked me how old I reckon he is before I saw that, I'd have said late 70s. It's hardly the most interesting bit of news you'll see today, but it surprised the hell out of me. While on the subject, this used to make me laugh A LOT when I was a...

Apologies if I’ve overlooked it... Happy Fridat! :drink: :cheers:

I do like to spot a bit of nominative determinism at work and spotted this in the press today: “Andy Drinkwater - lead engineer at the Water Research Centre” :) Do your best NSC - including reverse nominative determinism too :thumbsup:

Spotted in London yesterday, flying the flag for GOSBTS... Now that's a premium job for a roofing company! :clap2:

I'm mulling over the possibility of joining the virgin health & racquets club... One benefit that might swing it for me would be parking there occasionally on match days. Can anyone shed light on what it's like there on match days? There are only about 200 spaces, so I'm guessing it gets...
