    "The Peak"

    A question for those who kno more about epidemiology than I... Ignoring the concept of herd immunity, am I wrong in thinking that bringing down the average number of transmissions to less than 1 would, over time, see the virus naturally die out? With this in mind, could we not think of ways to...

    [Brighton] Mcs & O's That Have Played For Brighton

    Shane McFaul. Played about 2 minutes in total for us at Withdean if I remember correctly?

    [Other Sport] Isner v Anderson

    Can’t understand all the fuss about how tennis now needs to change and limit the final set. Might not be amazing for the audience, but surely it is incumbent on the player to be able to break their opponent? It’s pretty farcical that two fairly average players who are well into their 30s are in...

    [Music] What do you consider to be the greatest 'difficult' third album of all time ?

    Born to Run Was not expecting to be the first to suggest that!

    [Albion] Security cameras

    Saw someone's bobble hat being patted down as part of entry search in WSL - that steward obviously wasn't briefed that it was for facial recognition rather than to stop people smuggling in things under hats?

    [Albion] Club statement on the transfer window bingo card

    Can we have something like 'what a lot of fans don't understand is...' or 'fans probably don't realise the complexity of transfer deals' on there or does it have to be specific words/phrases?!

    [Other Sport] Bernard Tomic - "Going home to count my millions"

    I think it's a fairly strange attitude considering he could probably earn double, triple or more times what he has earnt if he worked hard for just 5 years more. He'd still have the rest of his life to live at 30 but would be even more comfortable. I do wonder what most would do if you were...

    New Dr Who

    The Christmas special was written by Moffat, the outgoing head writer though... Also Capaldi did three series!

    [Football] Snow v Schools.

    Inset days are for staff training and professional development. A snow day doesn't count as either of those so can't really be called an Inset day. Irrelevant as students get 190 days at school per year and inset are counted separately. I suppose you could make up the days in holidays but I...

    [Music] Albums of the year 2017

    A quick thought about this for me has arrived upon these as some of my favourites - Aldous Harding - Party Ryan Adams - Prisoner Richard Dawson - Peasant Cloud Nothings - Life Without Sound (didn't realise this was 2017!) The National - Sleep Well Beast Jens Lekman - Life Will See You Now And...

    [Brighton] Being called ' Mate'. When is it ok?

    What about being called 'boss'?

    [TV] The Apprentice 2017/18 official thread

    A nice idea but seemingly the main attraction of the show for most people is the satisfaction in watching people who think they're better than average folk, or society tells us are better than average folk, made to look silly. Actually I think the show needs a massive shake up because the more...

    Restaurant 2017

    This actually looks really good this year. Last year it seemed to be mostly restaurants offering set menus at times when they would usually be offering the same thing at the same price (e.g. Midweek lunch) but there's a lot on there that includes booze and anytime dining. Will have to try and...

    Inappropriate use of the word 'that'.

    In your 'Messi hit that ball so skilfully' example the word 'ball' refers, I believe, to a pass - i.e. A ball to his teammate - not to the actual ball itself. Therefore, in this case, 'that' is perfectly acceptable as there will be many 'balls' played over the match. Whether you agree with using...

    Andy Murray withdraws from The US Open.

    A shame he didn't withdraw a day earlier to avoid mucking up the draw. Good chance for someone other than the big 4/5 to win now though.

    What can't you get on with that everyone else can?

    I think it was probably implied - unless he's talking about his own tattoos?

    What can't you get on with that everyone else can?

    So you think he can't get o with tattoos through having had many (presumably now removed) himself?

    [Albion] Things which are not currently criminal offences but which absolutely should be

    Queue behaviour in general needs stricter jurisdiction. Almost the opposite of yours, I'm afraid, but people who think a queue should length is determined by the distance between them and the end, rather than the amount of people, and therefore decide to spend the entire time rubbing up...
