    [Albion] Prof Douglas Chamberlain

    I remember the Heartguard training very well - it made a huge difference to us as responders, gave us a lot of confidence, and we used the system many times. He was very well respected by the emergency workers in Brighton / Sussex. A good life, in my opinion.

    [Food] Dubai Chocolate

    Agreed - I have made this, it is pretty tasty, easy to make, and costs pennies in comparison to stupid prices some want to charge (I also used Shredded Wheat :D ).

    [Finance] Buildings and contents insurance

    That is possibly going to link your property with the word 'flood' - I was thinking more of external flood risk (from sea / river / heavy rainfall), which is why I was thinking of trying a different company that takes a different view on the risk of your property being flooded. I will repeat, I...

    [Finance] Buildings and contents insurance

    Flood risk? It would appear that many insurance companies have amended / changed their flood risk modelling, and have seriously increased their costs as a result. See https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/apr/23/my-renewal-quote-co-op-home-insurance-has-almost-tripled-to-1353 as just one...

    [Help] Technical mobile phone question

    To an extent, it depends on which phone and network you are using - see https://www.o2.co.uk/help/network-coverage-and-international/5g-setup scroll towards the bottom of the page and expand the answer to 'can I use 5G data while on a call' It may be that if you state your network and phone...

    [Food] Restaurant 2025

    From Jay's comment at the bottom of the article - "Today's column is outside the paywall, so you'll need to be a subscriber to carry on reading me from next week". It's a shame that he is now (soon to be) behind a paywall - I always enjoyed reading his reviews, whether I agreed with them or not...

    [TV] Adolescence - Netflix 4 part drama written by and starring Stephen Graham

    I agree with the comments above - just superb TV. As to how they did it - here are a few insights - https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2025/mar/21/adolescence-netflix-seven-things-you-didnt-know

    What type of vacuum are you after? Bagged / bagless / upright / cylinder / mains / battery? Price?

    [Food] Wednesday Dinner in Brighton

    Another vote for Semola. Was there last night (having not been there for 2-3 years). Menu has changed quite a bit, prices have gone up (as they have everywhere) but we all had superb food in a nice setting with good helpful and attentive staff.

    [Politics] Preston Circus Fire Station.

    So what did you think of the alterations to the site when you visited? I'm sure that you took advantage of the offer to undertake a guided tour, when the explanations regarding what chages they made, and why, were available recently. It's not like anyone on NSC would just read a headline and...

    [Albion] New fan zone - "The Terrace" [Opening 29/03/25 currently]

    Yesterday I queued for the Race Hill P&R bus after the game, as I regularly do. Having stayed to the final whistle, I was not at the front of the queue. There were still 5 or 6 buses waiting to be loaded as I queued. They loaded two buses at a time, as they usually do. Those 5 or 6 buses then...

    [Help] NTFS to FAT32 & playing through a TV.

    If the problem is now that the file that you have all spent so much time and love in creating needs to be transferred to your son's laptop, then consider using one of the many free file transfer services. Basically you upload the file from wherever it now sits (whichever PC it is on), then...

    [Football] Football Governance Bill / Independent Football Regulator

    I am no expert on football governance nor on Parliamentary procedure, but I found this article interesting - who exactly is behind these clearly engineered attempts to kill / massively weaken the proposed plans? Why is the Premier League sending out instructions to clubs to engage with the media...

    [Help] Identifying old badges/antiques etc.

    I think that that is part of a fire service rank marking (the 'pips' worn on the shoulders for more senior ranks, part of the more formal uniform that used to be worn before the modern uniform became more 'relaxed''). The arms radiating out from the centre are intended to represent an impeller /...

    [Albion] Away fans to be moved at the Amex from 2027/28 (was 2025/26)

    I'm firmly against this... 1. We already have (at least) 2 groups of singers in the NS, singing different songs at the same time. Possibly 3, once the new shelf gets built there. 2. If we have home supporters in the SS, we will probably have 4 different songs at the same time. 3. If half the...
