I like listening to interesting and thought provoking things; science, art, politics (left, right or centre), history, and anything else you might find interesting. So I thought I'd start a thread to collate what has interested you recently.
No need to comment on anything, it is absolutely...
And in what seems like a blink of an eye it is twenty years since a bunch of misguided zealots decided to end the lives of nearly three thousand people, including Robert Eaton, one of our own.
Don't forget to be nice to one another, and don't ever forget that just because you believe in...
I just want to pick the NSC hive brain.
The main double-glazing pane (inner) in my son's room cracked the other day, so I need to replace the unit.
I'm arranging for a couple of local firms (I live in Surrey) to come round and price up the replacement, but what sort of cost should I be looking...
I occasionally pop into PASOTI to find out what is going on with their administration.
As per usual it is absolutely nothing, the staff haven't had a full pay packet in eight months now. I can't believe how incompetent their Administrator seems to be.
The natives also don't seem to think that...
Hello Insider,
I *think* I ordered my ticket for the Sunderland match online on Sunday night, though the website returned a blank screen after I submitted my credit card details.
I've checked my Purchase History on the online ticketing site a couple of times today, and sure enough it shows the...
Good morning sage parent-folk of North Stand Chat.
I am very shortly to become a Dad for the first time, and have been given the job by the lovely Mrs Orange of selecting a Baby Monitor.
Now the research that I have done tells me that there are a lot of these on the market, and many have some...
Advice please, I'm off on my holidays to Sri Lanka and the Maldives shortly, and have found that you don't seem to be able to buy cash for either destination before you go. So what have those of you folk who have been there before do cash wise, how much do you get?
Cheers.
Dear Project Team,
My curiosity has been sparked by a comment in the Sheffield Wednesday planning recommendations that the proposed new roof truss for their Kop end was "likely to be the longest single span truss girder in the country".
So the question is I guess, what type of trusses are...
From the BBC:
Swiss seals Southampton takeover
Swiss Markus Liebherr has completed his takeover of League One Southampton.
The Saints' future had been uncertain following the collapse of the proposed takeover by Matt Le Tissier's Pinnacle group on 30 June.
Liebherr is expected to have...
As Malcolm is retiring after the match on Saturday, I thought I'd like to wish him all the best for the future.
He has been at the club as long as I can remember, and I can remember when he was thin! It'll seem strange him not being on the bench, but hopefully we'll see him in the stands at...
Hi,
Quick question about the East Stand. The revised design is clearly two tier, though with the upper tier not being put in yet, so is the upper tier capacity additional to the overall permitted capacity or within it? I seem to recall hearing somewhere that it wasn't being put in initially...
