Anyone know this school ? What's it like ?

Any financial experts on here ? I've got a reasonable sized pension pot, and I'm now old enough to take out the 25% bit tax free. Is it best to do that now, or wait as long as possible, so the pot can continue to grow for a few more years ?

Interesting article in The Spectator about how the civil liberties of football fans are routinely denied. Thoughts ? http://www.spectator.co.uk/features/9292132/the-biggest-civil-liberties-outrage-youve-never-heard-of/

Anyone else see it last night on BBC4 ? I know a lot of people don't like DB, but I've always found him to be a very amusing bloke. Original and quirky, and his genuine understanding of what it means to be a fan shines through all the time.

If you want to stay young and beautiful, excellent advice right here ! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2584176/Youthful-grandmother-67-claims-sperm-facials-anti-ageing-secret-shes-video-tutorial.html Think I'll only charge my gf £10 a go. Bargain, really ! :lol::lol::lol:

Lots and lots of empty seats. Oh my, how the bubble has burst....

Anyone else going ? First saw Steve back in mid-70's when he was a very big star, but he disappeared quickly....then caught up with him in the last 80's/early 90's and saw some great shows. He'd certainly mellowed a bit after 10+ years in obscurity. Always felt that he's been a bit...

Very interesting piece in today's Telegraph, about how up to 1000 English fans travel over to Dortmund games. Amazing - I wonder what would happen if a major club here recreated the Dortmund model ...

Pompey workers sacrificed for votes to keep Scotland in the Union ? What do NSCers think about this ?

Within the context of The Beatles, who do you think was the greater talent, Lennon or McCartney ? Who do you think was more influential ? Whose work has endured better ?

Interesting pre-Xmas promotion at Brentford for their game vs Stevenage on 22 Dec - you can pay what you like to get in, minimum £1, and if you decide to pay more than a fiver, then 50% goes to Sport Relief. STEVENAGE TICKET PROMOTION What an excellent idea....mind you, surprised that Palace...

I found this amusing ! Germany, Austria and Italy are standing together in the middle of a pub when Serbia bumps into Austria and spills Austria's pint. Austria demands Serbia buy it a complete new suit because there are splashes on its trouser leg. Germany expresses its support for...

I remember just a few weeks after Hillsborough, Liverpool lost to Arsenal in that epic title-decider game, and it seems to me that they've never been quite the same power since. Will they ever get back to their former greatness, I wonder ? Or is the weight of the Hillsborough tragedy going to...

Really loved it, thought it fitted in perfectly. Amazed i hadn't heard it before. http://youtu.be/Sprh6n48aTg

I had no idea that the population of Uruguay is only 3.3 million, yet just look at how many top quality players they have produced. Amazingly, they've won the Copa America more often than any other country. How do they do it ?

Every time I hear the latest twist in the never-ending financial crisis, I think of this little overlooked gem from The Divine Comedy. Interesting artist, Neil Hannon....he often reminds me of Scott Walker, but here he sounds like a modern-day version of Flanders And Swann. Enjoy ...

Anybody read it yet ? Anybody know anyone who has ? Seems everyone is talking about it at the moment.

One of the things I really like about NSC is the way that people discuss all sorts of non-football matters in a really supportive way, so I'm wondering who out there can give me a bit of advice. Briefly, my story : was married for over 20 years, until I discovered that my wife had been...

Well played Brighton - brilliant result !! Can we have Cook back now please ?:clap2::clap2:

Then cheer yourself up - watch this clip, one of the funniest, most uplifting things I've seen in ages ! It's a flash mob event in a shopping mall, when they all break out into the Hallelujah Chorus - brilliant !! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXh7JR9oKVE Happy Christmas Everybody !
