    Women: know your limits!

    It looks like there's an organisation that's fed up with this female dominated society and they want men to be positions of power (like PM, chancellor of exchequer, chairman of the BBC, Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Chancellor etc), to start running businesses and get a fair crack of the whip...

    Pub in Lewes for Sunday lunch - recommendations?

    I'm looking for a pub in Lewes for Sunday lunch: there are four criteria to be met a) Decent beer (Harveys preferably) b) Kid-friendly food (ie chips rather than roast) c) Something for veggies d) Dog-friendly Rather than search through all the pubs, I know there are few Lewes experts here who...

    Bob Copper centenary ... with added Harveys

    Tomorrow sees the centenary of the birth of one of Sussex's finest: Bob Copper, folk singer, writer and archivist It's nice of Harveys to mark the occasion with some special ale but they really could have got the year of his death right - he died in 2004, not 1982. That's not even close...

    Why no fixture list on the club website?

    Why has the club taken the fixture list off the website? I was looking to fill in my new Albion calendar with the rest of the year's fixtures and I can't as the club has removed the fixture list (the fixture list link only leads to an up-to-date result list). It seems a strange thing to do as...

    [Cricket] Australia getting a pasting ... again

    After being well beaten in the first test, Pakistan are hitting Australia all over the park again . It's currently 280-2, with another ton for Younis. Pakistan aren't that great a team, so it's worrying we were beaten so easily by Australia last winter (even taking into account the lack of pace...

    PL looking abroad again

    Not seen a thread on this http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/oct/07/premier-league-38th-game-overseas-fixtures Looks a bonkers plan to me. Would tens of thousands people really go to watch Hull v Crystal Palace or Burnley v Stoke in China or Malaysia?

    Qatar set to lose World Cup?

    Haven't seen a thread about this yet but US sites are reporting that Qatar is about to be stripped of the WC. From what I can see, it's one board member shouting his mouth off, so it's not official but FIFA tends to keep these things quiet so you can bet that this has at least been discussed...

    The dogsitter we hired can't look after our dog this Friday (poor fella's had his son rushed to hospital in the night). Is anyone on NSC a sitter or know anyone who is? It's just for Friday

    Is the nation state dead?

    Interesting article in this week's New Scientist saying the nation state (which only came into being about 150 years ago) has outlived its usefulness. It's a timely debate as such much of the discussion on Scotland has focused on what rUK calls itself - the article questions whether we need...

    I received a bizarre letter today saying that there's a new process for electoral registration to be on the electoral roll for next year I have to provide a copy of my passport and four items with my address on it - only one of which can be a utility bill. Why and when did this process change...

    Ferry prices puzzle

    looking to book a ferry crossing this summer but found the cheapest price for foot passengers was £180 return for the four of us. I checked the same trip for a car plus four passengers and it was £90. It seems counter-intuitive to me. Foot passengers have the option of the Eurostar, surely it...

    [Cricket] Gary Gilmour dead

    Sad to see Aussie bowler Gary Gilmour has died at 62 - no age that. I remember him making England look like mugs in the first World Cup

    Players of the Season

    How many times has the player of the season not played for us again? I can think of at least three - Chapman, McShane and Upson. Was Zamora one as well? I think Whing did player after winning the award but not many times. Are there any more?
