    [Help] Jury Service.

    I’ve been called up twice, 2 weeks each, and during that time sat on 3 cases. In fact, to be strictly accurate it was 4 cases, but on one of them the Jury was chosen and sworn in, the very first ‘action’ was the defence calling for a legal point of order, so we all filed out of the courtroom...

    [Albion] We're moving!

    Welcome. Another W3D here. Decent atmosphere most of the time. Great view, but no avoiding those killer steps I’m afraid! 😥 Don’t let the old boy from near the back who constantly moans get to you. FORWARDS! FORWARDS! The very first pass that goes sideways or backwards you’ll hear him. It...

    [Help] Can anyone recommend a good hoover?

    I’d certainly recommend a Shark. Best Vacuum we’ve ever had by a mile. Had several Dysons previously and Shark showed me what an idiot I’d been to believe the hype.

    [Albion] Man of the Match (Man City A)

    Agreed about Hinsh. I’m a huge fan of the boy, but yesterday was not one of his best days. This is the problem with MOM threads. Too many people vote on the basis of their favourites or prior prejudices. It’s supposed to be an opinion on solely the 90+ minutes you’ve just witnessed. So on that...

    [Albion] Positives tonight v Chelsea part deux.

    The P&R queue was quicker than I can remember for a long time. That can't be a co-incidence can it?

    [Albion] £30m offer for Levi Colwill rejected

    I wish we'd spent the £30m. He didn't have a particularly good game tonight, but even if it was only a 4/10 he was still one of their better performers. But ignoring tonight, ... time waits for no man. We all know that Dunky is in the twilight zone and we need to find a replacement to step in...

    [Albion] So many great moments in tonight’s game… what was your personal highlight?…

    Had Talksport on for the 1st hour or so of my drive home. You wouldn't have known who Chelski had played if you had just switched on. Not one mention of BHA, just endless drivel about Chelski's form. :sleep: My biggest smile of the night was the "What a waste of money" chant as Moises was...

    [Albion] Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I must have been distracted for a few seconds. Please tell me what I missed? My impression, and I admit i could be wrong, was that he didn't actually touch the ball at all? Not once. What happened that suggested he has boat loads of potential? (I fervently hope he has by the way, but I clearly...

    [Albion] Your football ancestry

    I'll whisper it quietly, but I was born in the front bedroom of a council house in ... Croydon. Fortunately my father had the good sense to get himself a job at a factory in Shoreham and we moved to Brighton when I was only 3 years old, so therefore before any lasting damage was done, and I...

    [Drinking] Lunchtime Drinking (70s80s)

    I’ve enjoyed reading this thread. The younger element on the board are probably thinking it’s full of bullshit and exaggeration, but as someone who is now retired but worked through the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s I can tell you I believe every single word of every single post because it really really...

    [Albion] U21s v Forest U21s Away tonight 7pm

    6 yellow cards by the 50th minute! 4 for Forest and 2 for the good guys. 😳

    [Albion] New Amex entrance numbering

    Worry not. My season ticket says entrance West 1. I just walked in entrance West 7 with no issues whatsoever.

    [Albion] Han Solo/Swansman You Tube Channel

    Bravo! :clap2: I’m not sure if the joke translates in Sweden, but it made me titter out loud anyway. :lolol:

    [NSC] NSC - what it has become, and how can it be made better

    I've actually taken the time to read every post on this thread and good luck to Bozza in extracting any useful ideas/changes that will suit everybody! My advice Bozza, for what it's worth, is to echo the thoughts of many on here and suggest you adopt the old adage of 'if it ain't broke ...

    [Finance] Car Ins - windscreen replacement & NCB

    Your man was absolutely right. Unless it’s a vintage, nobody driving a car should worry about their windscreen shattering anymore. It can’t happen, unless someone decides to drop a brick or similar from a bridge as you pass under! The advent of laminated windscreens put a stop to shattering. You...
