    [Help] Car tyre pressure advice sought

    Your 12v portable inflator, your forecourt air machine, and your TPMS are far from being precision instruments, so unless it's way out why bother.

    [Film] Wicked

    I very much enjoyed Book of Mormon. Added entertainment that a good tranche of patrons were there via an offer in The Telegraph! So a good number of salmon trousered gents and their tight buttoned wives leaving in disgust.

    [Football] Are Man U really in danger of getting relegated?

    Not going to happen. Though they may well give it a good go. They already seemed to have a toxic and fractured first team, and Offshore Jim has done a splendid job demotivating all the backroom staff at the club.

    [Albion] Club selling your seat, is this right?

    Think the club is being rather generous with the terms and conditions. 25% is very low use of a season ticket. I'd fully support the club being quite arsey to anyone not managing over 50% and some electronic tutting to anyone under 75%.

    [Albion] Fikayo Tomori

    Me too. Though I managed to stay out drinking in Lincoln until 2am to dull the pain. As I remarked at the time the poor lamb hadn't really got any game time until then and his first experience outside of the cosseted world of academy football was facing a malevolent wardrobe.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Brentford *** Official Match Thread ***

    My first game this season that I've been able to get out the house early enough for some pre match drinking. Should we win I will need support in convincing the missus that she has to let me out several hours early for the next game.

    Crocodile Dundee - Channel 4 - 20:00 - Best Film Ever?

    My dad took me to see it at the cinema. Think I was 12 tops and it was an 18. Never got round to asking what tale he spun to the attendant who was initially and correctly very opposed to letting me in. It's alright.

    [Misc] Fitting uPVC door, but is there a lintel?

    The old brickies were known to cut off the end of an old table knife to square it up and put a bend in it too make a tool to help with weather struck pointing. This took was known as a Frenchman. I'm guessing because it had had it's head cut off. And was bent.

    [Misc] Fitting uPVC door, but is there a lintel?

    Yes it seems to be something surveyors and solicitors have learnt recently and you get asked for fensa certification. Happened to a friend recently though he just responded that the window was very well fitted and clearly had no problems. Full disclosure I fitted that window. Apologies to any...

    [Brighton] i360 filing for administration

    Maybe 9 staff and 100 people on the books on zero hours contracts who mainly did zero hours.

    [Misc] Can anyone recommend a locksmith ?

    Buy a new handle. It's only two screws to change it, though if you're in Brighton I can charge you to do it

    [Help] What do you buy your middle aged mates for their birthday

    Nerf gun. And get yourself one too. As a bonus you'll have lots more time to play after your respective wives leave.

    [News] We want our Marbles back, we want our Marbles back...

    I agree Britain should not be paying reparations, though we could perhaps take part of the vast reparations that were still being paid to the estates of British slavers until relatively recently and send that.

    [Misc] What's your greatest personal sporting achievement or memory as a participant?

    Bowling a wicket maiden in my first over, that is not just my first over of the match but my first over in the best part of 20 years, having generally failed to pitch it onto the wicket in the much earlier attempts.

    [Albion] If Dunk is fit, would you start him?

    I remember Alan Shearer commenting "who knew he had that in his locker?" about a long dunk through ball early in Gpott. "Everyone who's actually f***ing watched him" I shouted at the telly.

    [Film] Wicked

    I do rather like a musical and would happily have been to many more, except that in a classic role reversal I'm a cis het male and it's my missus who'll have no truck with musicals.

    [Albion] Things You Never Knew About the Gaffer

    I care. He's younger, better looking, healthier, more successful. Got me beat by a mile by any metric. The least he could do is let me console myself that I'll never be a slaphead like him.

    [Brighton] i360 filing for administration

    It was always just the most egregious example in the series of landgrabs of public space for private profit. Yes the attraction doesn't make profit but repayments are only due from the activities of the i360. Profit from the buildings underneath are exempt from contributing to the debt. And I'm...

    [Albion] "If Newcastle beat West Ham, they'll be one point behind Arsenal and Chelsea, and two points behind Manchester City"

    I gave the pod a go for a while and rapidly grew bored by the lack of insight. Binned it completely when they reviewed a match and one of them hadn't even watched the match yet. Though I admire the arrogance to think you still have something to offer from watching 3 minutes of highlights.
