    [Football] Wrexham

    I've got a soft spot for them. Many moons ago went there to see The Albion. We got there a bit late to find a pub so straight there. Walking past their social club I asked if there was any chance of a pint. The chap on the door shouted over to the bar who duly delivered 3 pints of Wrexham...

    [Music] Roger Daltrey at The Dome

    I saw The Who ( well, Daltrey & Townshend) recently at the Albert Hall. Have to say that Roger's voice was outstanding for a bloke of 81, and Pete can certainly still play the guitar! I was utterly in awe of the the drummer, who was probably the best I've ever seen. Turns out he was Zac Starkey...

    [Misc] Prostate Cancer

    So, two years ago my PSA was 17. I had the operation but the psa was low but still going up each month. Before Xmas I had 20 x bouts of salvage radiotherapy also...and thankfully my last two months results are PSA undetectable. If you're going through this, keep going and stay strong, because...

    [Albion] A Brighton / Hamburg connection - USC Paloma

    I put some around a few years ago. I met a guy called Jens outside the Queens heads having a beer, about 10 years ago, turned out he was an HSV sth. We got on so well, met after for more beer, he loved Brighton so much that he came over the following year and has done ever since, often bringing...

    [Albion] Potter- what’s he up to? (Managing West Ham from 9 Jan)

    I wish he would make his mind up. I've still got £12 @ 2/1 for him to be next permanent manager of England.

    [Help] Calling RAC without using an app.

    I'm also RAC. I tried to use them once and apparently it can be done online, without the app? I checked today and online still works, or am I behind the times here?

    [News] Never mind a nation of shopkeepers.........

    Back in the eighties, after pubs shut and gone around someone's house, we'd ring up the local taxi firm and ask them to go a late night petrol station and deliver us a packet of fags, which they did for the cost of the fags plus the cab fare of said packet....

    [Misc] Prostate Cancer

    Had the op last year, after 3 months of anti hormone stuff. Recovered pretty well, with the usual side issues, but now some is still there and psa shooting back up, so back to anti hormone again and then the bouts of radiation. The ups and downs of this are so like watching The Albion at times...
