From the Daily Mail; For centuries, the great British loo has been a matter of envy to the rest of the world. Thanks to the efforts of pioneers like the legendary Thomas Crapper, we have long since led the world in comfort and hygiene. Now, however, that could be about to change. For most of...

After coming across an unboxed Mega Drive 2 with controller and leads for £2 at a carboot sale, and latterly watching the entire Angry Video Game Nerd library, I've developed an interest in retro games systems. In fact, in the past fortnight from carboot sales and ebay I've got absolutely loads...

You decide :thumbsup: Our Mill; Butch George;

Need some afternoon reading. Having devoured the classic http://www.northstandchat.com/showthread.php?t=173384 I'm not sure where to go from here. Tips very much appreciated. :clap:

Hi guys, was doing some yearly maintenance to my beloved 2008 gaming laptop (Gateway P-6860fx) which currently is stock spec; Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor T5550, 2 MB L2 Cache | 1.83 GHz | 667 MHz FSB 4096 MB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (2 × 2048) NVIDIA® GeForce® 8800M GTS (+ 512mb ddr3) 320 GB 5400...

Have just "discovered" these while checking out the "Spykee" webcam robot. The reviews are absolutely immense, 5 stars on pretty much every site (Amazon, Google shopping - there's even fan sites).. and weirdly it doesn't feel like the typical viral marketing "BUY THIS IT'S GREAT" nonsense from...

Who is the fittest HUNK to have EVER graced the TIGHT-FITTING undervest of the Albion?

I was yesterday involved in a road traffic accident as the front passenger. My girlfriend was driving, we were going a steady 25mph in torrential rain up a hill on the way for a sunday lunch. A cyclist pulled out from between two parked cars and started cycling up the hill almost parallel to the...

Which have you seen live on stage? :safeway

Hi folks, should be a one or two post thread - so apologies for this. While we're on the boxing theme, I have memories of a world title bout, and one of the fighters freaking out before/during the fight, and then blaming this on being "dazzled by his opponents trunks"... However, after...

Hi guys, just playing the demo for the first time this morning - what are your first impressions? So far, pretty impressed! Dickinson hat-trick in first friendly against Wrexham, playing as a target man.. Lots of nice little touches, but not a big difference to 2009 - definitely a glorified...

For those who were there; IMHO: Kuipers - 7 (Kicking solid, two good saves at 2-0 in the last ten minutes which avoided a worrying last few minutes) Virgo RB - 6 (Never a full back, and seems quite slow on his feet. But never beaten in the air, and positionally while better than previous...

Hi guys, in a sudden u-turn from my previous posts, I wondered if anybody else was making their journey to Carlisle into a weekend break? Considering convincing the missus to drive up (from our base Leeds) to the lake district for a weekend break at a B&B... and then taking in the Albion game...

Hi guys, Have a ridiculously full five night itinery in NYC coming up, and wanted anybody's feedback on the following places! - Birdland - jazz bar - Sardi's - overpriced rubbish or NYC institution?

Saw this film last night. Frank Langella must win the Oscar.. :bowdown: A masterpiece in the truest sense of the word.

Sure this has come up before, so apologies. Received a Penalty Charge Notice this morning which I consider extremely harsh, and is the first I've had. It includes four little screencaps of the incident and says "The Council believes that a Penalty Charge is payable with respect to the vehicke...

Anyone been? Is it expensive, etc?

Anyone fancy a quick race?!

I wonder what Micky, Dick and the gang are up to. Instead of being on the telephone to every other chairman in the football league, trying to sign or loan some half-decent players, I have the feeling they are perhaps enjoying a nice beverage? Maybe spending some quality time with their...
