I've decided I'm going to try and learn the guitar. Knowing what I'm like it's possible I will lose interest after a couple of months so I don't want to spend a fortune. If I stick at it I will upgrade. Any advice on what to buy for around £30-50 ?

I've got a holiday booked in March and I'm having trouble renewing my travel insurance; Because I'm currently under investigation for a medical issue with my guts which has shown up a bit of an issue but not life affecting and I'm currently waiting for a consultant appointment, they won't quote...

I'm looking in to a few things for a friend who is going travelling but wants to be able to watch Albion games. Can I ask those of you who live outside the UK what legal* service you subscribe to, how much it costs and if you get all games ? *has to be a legitimate service, not a hooky IPTV setup.

After several years I have bought a new pair of speakers and set up my old CD/Amp. My goodness, what a difference. Music actually sounds like music again. I still have a decent Bose speaker that can do all the internetty stuff but I might get rid and buy a streamer separate. Having sold all my...

I've had a domain registered with 123-reg for many years but they've gone a bit "money-grabbing" (started charging for things that used to be included) and I'm looking to move to somewhere cheaper. I need: Email address forwarding for about 10 email accounts so I can forward xxx@mydomain.co.uk...

As documented elsewhere, I'm at a wedding Saturday and there's unlikely to be a telly set up so I'm going to be watching it on my phone. Questions to the wise: Hotel Wifi or 4g ? If 4g, how much data will a 90 min match use ?

The best time for the FA/PL to act and punish Man City for their (alleged) transgressions is now, before the season has started (so obviously they will wait until Christmas). Supposing the PL decided that expulsion from the league was warranted, who would take their place ? Would it be the...

‘Er indoors wants a new laptop to replace her chromebook. Reasons being she wants : 1. manage her music on it using iTunes (she uses an ipod mostly but iPhone sometimes) 2. manage/edit her photos (nothing as complex as photoshop, just trimming/resizing etc) 3. better display I’ve not used...

Might be booking to see a band at the ropetackle and not sure whether to get the train or drive. What time do gigs usually finish ?

Had an eye test today and the opthalm..optol..octoph.. eye lady suggested that as I have to swap glasses to use the laptop or phone I should give varifocals a try. What do others think of them ?

Someone (most people probably) will know more than me.... Mrs H is a few months short of a full state pension on her NI record and she has been offered a part-time job which she hopes will fill the gap. I've looked online and I have found that she needs to earn over £123 per week to get a...

Will Dunky be in it ? Not should he, will he ?

For the last few days/weeks, I have to click the back button twice to go back on NSC. All other sites (pornhub, xhamster etc) are fine. Using Chrome on a Macbook @Bozza

from https://planetradio.co.uk/planet-rock/news/rock-news/rock-fan-guinness-world-record/ 86 gigs in a year doesn't seem that many to me; in my gig-going (and hearing destroying) years of 1980-1987ish, I went to dozens of gigs a year in Brighton and London.

We eschewed the train, opting instead for a Seagull Travel coach from Eastbourne. Got there about 3 hours early. Coming back, the coach left at 20:00ish. Took us over an hour to get the five-odd miles to the M4. Then the coach broke down at the Newmarket but, fortunately, the company is based...

Wife and I are planning to trip to NW Italy, flying in and out of Genoa and were thinking of spending a couple of days in the city. Anyone been ? Dos and don't ?

My son is working in a Hove nursing home and came across this in the lift motor room. Anyone on here care to admit to putting it there ?

Our penultimate game is against Southampton and, given their current position they might need a result to have a chance of staying up. This led to wondering have we ever beaten (or drawn with) someone and thus ensured their relegation ?
