    [Albion] Seagull Travel

    I might be wrong but wasn't the argument put that the club do subsidise those traveling by coach by providing free parking close to the stadium.

    As I posted earlier, it is simply survival instinct. As a prey animal you stay with the herd in times of danger. Continuing to run is a sign of stress not enjoyment.

    [Other Sport] The Grand National 2024

    The same could be said about many cruel " sports" - fox hunting, bear baiting, hare coursing etc . Thankfully the civilised majority has recognised the immorality in these activities and taken action to try and end them. If it weren't for the money involved then undoubtedly the same could be...

    Horses are a prey animal - when the herd runs safety lies with keeping up.

    The simple fact that, as you say, the design of the whip has changed and and the use of these has been legislated on only goes to acknowledge that their use is cruel. On the face of it flat racing should be much safer for the horse than races over obstacles. Take a look however at the link I...

    If there were co-drivers "encouraging" the driver to go faster by hitting them with a whip then I'm sure there would be vociferous calls for motor racing to be banned.

    No - I mean almost always.

    Not only that they are often injured whilst being hit with a whip. How anyone can support racing, (the only place you can see an animal being repeatedly hit with impunity).and still have a clear conscience is beyond me. https://www.horsedeathwatch.com/index.php

    [Albion] Would you take Eddie?

    And if the person they chose was Eddie Howe then of course I would support that appointment.

    [Misc] What happened in the 90’s ?

    For me the latter part of the 90s was taken up by companies paranoid about the Y2K bug - tiring, boring but highly profitable

    Are Russians who protest against the attack on Ukraine cowards? I call them heroes.

    This is where cheques are useful. Make the payment to the customer by cheque and mark the back with "in full and final settlement regarding all and any claims connected to the installation of . . . . on . . . ". You can then get the cashed cheque returned to you by your bank. Responsibility...

    [Misc] Varifocal glasses

    Had varifocals for years until I had three vertebrae in my neck fused following a break. I lost a lot of flexibility in my neck and found it either impossible or painful to move my head in order to focus sometimes. Changed to bifocals and all is well. Not the same range of focal distances...

    Snidey ??? I hardly think that highlighting the combination of Ferrari, (and some of their strategy decisions), with LH, (and some of his comments re strategy), will be fun can be considered snidey. Not sure I'd go so far as being my hero but of all the current drivers my support is for Lando.

    Are you sure, really really sure, that he's been right more often than wrong? And no, I don't have a pet hate for LH any more than for any other driver in F1. After all he's proved his ability time and time again. Driver spur of the moment radio conversations are one of the things that add...

    Any move to Ferrari by Hamilton bodes well for some classic tantrums over strategy 🤣
