Help please. Any recommendations (ideally based on personal experience) to get the keypad unlocked on an old Nokia, preferably in or near Brighton? Note that this is not to unlock the phone from a previous network provider - it is simply to get past the keyboard lock. The background is that my...

Appealing to the hive mind that is NSC, again.... I have just put in replacement decking - softwood tannelised timber - and now want to apply an end grain sealer / protection for the many cut ends that surround the fish pond, as well as elsewhere. My problem is finding a suitable product that...

For those who won't normally look at the nasty ultra left-wing rag (The Guardian) https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/oct/21/how-hope-powell-became-a-football-legend-im-not-afraid-of-anybody Decent background article on Hope Powell (Apologies if this has already been posted - couldn't...

Okay, so only a few games in - but interesting views on our start, and the Newcastle fan's view on their season seems to be desperately trying to avoid the elephant that is their new owner - and a few other comments from fans of other teams that will no doubt have a few spluttering into their...

Apologies if this is not the 3rd attempt to get VAR right - it could be the 4th or 5th, I've lost count... Anyway, more changes to VAR coming up in a week or two - see https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58064333

Apologies, I'm sure this must have been asked before but, but trying to open a thread or refreshing the NSC page repeatedly sends me to a "Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit." page. Is this purely a...

Up, apparently - see https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-strategy-to-regenerate-high-streets Just over £19m to improve Newhaven - any ideas on how it will be / should be spent? (I can't see any further details on the Gov website.)

Apologies if fixtures - I hadn't spotted this anywhere else - What (to me) is a very interesting article on the huge effort and science that goes into making football pitches (and other grass-based sports) such a vast improvement over the pitches that I used to watch football being played on...

An article in the Grauniad today - has anyone been to all of these? Any opinions on the ones on this list? Any views on which places should have been on the list, but aren't? (I know, this is a bit like that 'old postcards of sussex' thread - "do you remember the good old days, when we used...

Hi all wise sages of plumbing - advice / assistance needed, please. We have a walk-in shower fitted with a waste pump. This is an AKW Digipump 4, which does not appear on the AKW website (and I presume is now obsolete / has been replaced with a newer model). This morning it just stopped...

Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere - I haven't spotted it - https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2021/mar/11/brighton-to-get-new-outdoor-swimming-pool-kemptown-seafront-regeneration All we need now is a monorail to go with it...

Interesting to see that the xG (and other stats) are being used as weapons against the gambling cheats ??? Not sure how I feel about this - would the number of chances we create vs the number of goals we score cause us to be investigated? Hopefully before this becomes an established system in...

We are all aware that we are in very strange times. Some are working even harder than usual keeping essential services going. Some are WFH. Some are self-isolating / shielding. Some are laid off due to their employers closing, and so on. The point is, that for pretty much all of us, our...

The recent comments by Trump about 'I want you all to wear facemasks, but I won't wear one myself' (yes I know that is not exactly what he said) is, to me, an astonishing failure of leadership, and a classic example of do as I say, not as I do. However, he is by no means the only one to fail in...

Here's a novel experience for me - I plan to hang around at the Amex after the game tomorrow for a bit of food and drink. I've not done that before (yes I know, bad fan - but equally I have not left before the final whistle either!). So, the question is, is there food as well as booze available...

I am not sure that my friend's boiler will make it through another winter. Any recommendations for a plumber / heating engineer who can do a top-notch job (but not at top-notch prices) in Newhaven? Combi-boiler replacement required, informal advice from last British Gas guy who came to repair...

Apologies if already posted... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39998863

(Nope, nothing to do with golf :) ) My lad, in his early 20s, has finally decided to learn to drive. He is thinking about doing one of those intensive courses where you drive for a week or two and take the test at the end of that, rather than the option of one lesson a week for many weeks...

Apologies - as a long-term lurker (but only recently decided to 'dive into the pool' and post a comment or two), I feel I ought to have seen a thread on this before. But I can't find one, so.... Who is it that makes the comments on a thread? By that, I mean the comment that pops up if you...

Hopefully this won't be an issue for us - after all, it is (apparently) not applicable to Premier League teams - but I am not sure I really understand the 'new rule' for the number of homegrown players, as explained here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39517843 One in the matchday squad...
