Hi all, Recently upgraded to full fibre from Community Fibre and binning off the awful BT Infinity we had. It's super duper fast which is great. (Getting consistent over 700mps over WiFi) But it's struggling to reach our youngest daughters bedroom at the other end of the flat. Her room is...

Hi all I've really hurt my calf. Has anyone done this before? I mean badly? I was at work today and hurt myself lifting something at a funny angle and was using my leg as leverage and it literally went "pop". My colleague who was about 3m away heard it and turned around to see me grimacing...

Hi all I bought one yesterday, (well, for the kids as Mrs Spongy believes). A Metaquest 2...... Never been on any kind of VR before and must say I really enjoyed it but I think it gave me motion sickness as I felt weird when I took it off, either the headset or the several ciders I'd drank...

How are we getting home? It's just dawned on me.... KO 8pm, normal finish about 9.55pm. Extra time until 22.30..... Penalties finish 22.50pm. I'm taking my 9 year old daughter who has school tomorrow and I have a 5am alarm set for 6am start at work...... Personally I'm just hoping for a...

Evening all. My daughter is of the age where she is getting into group chats and online gaming. Specifically Roblox and Fortnite. But I'm having trouble getting her headset/microphone to work and I think I might be a luddite when it comes to this stuff. I bought her a PS4 compatible headset...

Hi all I'm proper buzzing right now. My daughter has always bugged me to go to the games with me for a couple of years but I felt she was too young. Last season at Christmas I took the plunge and bought her a half season ticket for the second half of last season She's now a proper bonafide...

Good morning all. I've woken up full of beans and sprightly this morning despite only a few hours sleep. Due to my good mood I've decided to finally get the TV up on the wall. When we had our rewire done I had the vision to get some high level power sockets and conduit installed in the walls...

Hi all, Does anyone on here have a .DXF file of the current Albion badge. If you do could you PM me please? Short and sweet thread. Many thanks Spongy

I've been getting annoyed in my current job and decided to start looking for a new job. I'm currently a CNC operator but the programmer before me is crap and always causing me issues. I've been telling them for the 20 months that I've been here what they're doing is wrong and nobody was...

My 8 year old daughter has been training with a local newly set up girls football team. It was her birthday a couple of days ago and she's decided to spend some of her money on some boots and shinpads. What kind of boots does she need? Am I looking at moulded studs for young kids? the...

At the game yesterday there was no Strongbow on offer in Dicks, just some horrid sweet cider called Inches. I thought it might have just been left over stock from the WC games. But alas the ghastly stuff was for sale on the concourses too. I had 3 pints of the stuff in total, after the last...

How do you upload photos onto here from a phone???? It's driving me mental:censored: I've been pressing the little picture above the text box, choosing my photo and clicking on "upload" but I just keep getting an "upload of file failed" error message. I'm trying to post on the gardener's...

Evening all, I'm in dire need of some help please.... Myself and Mrs Spongy and due to complete on our first mortgage on friday. Its where we want to live and have been desperate to move back there. Its a 3 bed flat that is under the leaseholder Clarion. We got it cheap but it needed a...

Still here and alive. Love it.

Is there proper outside catering at The Amex this season with outside toilets too? I thought I saw a post on it a while ago but have no idea which thread I saw it on! Just trying to figure out our transport and pre match drinking options for today. If there's outside toilets that would be...

Morning all. I'm in the process of buying my first property. Yay! A 3 bed first floor flat. And it's cheap. Yay! But needs a re wire.... Boo! Which we will be done before we move in and begin decorating. I've had several quotes and everyone so far has said for us to drop the ceilings to...

Does anyone on here suffer with them? I cant really say I ever have done before. And when I did have one in my younger years I used to just wake up, think WTF, and go back to sleep. But on Monday I had one. And I'm still thinking about it. It felt so real that I literally woke up screaming and...

Mrs Spongy and myself went to look at a property yesterday and we both like it but it needs a bit of work. In this case the previous owners have removed the bath and replaced it with a shower. We've got 2 young kids so need to put a bath back in. To my untrained eye it would seem a...

Would you? I'm not just talking about being on your own in an isolated part where there are colleagues still on site. ... I'm talking about literally on your own. Everyone else has gone home, everything bar one door is locked up so I can get out and lock up. There no procedures in place other...

After my cluster**** of employment for the 12 weeks I have been approached by an agency about another job. I havent been actively looking as I'm just still glad I've got a job right now but I left my profile on CVLibrary open. This role sounds right up my street and is effectively what I was...
