Yes, the dreaded month is back, rivalled only by dry January. Mind you, I only drink twice a week these days - Monday to Thursday and Friday to Sunday. |

Goodbye: Yellow Brick Road, Norma Jean, Cruel World, 12.30 Kick offs. Hello: Dolly, Old Man Winter, Winter Ales and 3pm Kick offs. God Is In His Heaven. |
| Forum Thread | Kick off times at 22:58 19 Sep 2024
As we approach another cock's-crow kick off time, as I mulled over my ale, it occured to me that if all this is a “success”, ie increased subs and ad revenue for Sky, we could be looking back at this season as the good old days when we still had some Sat 3pm kick offs. It surely behoves all those with Sky subs to cancel. |

Gary Lineker introducing Last Night At The Proms….it was only a spoof but it worried a few of us….then the opening with symphonic arrangements of sporting theme music, Match of the Day etc. |

Soton have signed Cornet on loan from West Ham - that'll be a long wafer him to travel. |
| Forum Thread | Smoking outside pubs at 21:56 29 Aug 2024
I'm an ex pipe and cigar smoker but jacked it in when Tony Blair banned smoking in pubs. Now talk of banning it in pub gardens. I know it's a health risk but so are many things. Smoking outside won't have a deleterious effect on other peoples' health and the pub trade has problems aplenty - any thoughts ? |

| Forum Thread | Card season ticket at 21:17 2 Aug 2024
A week to go and no sign of the season ticket cards through the post. Why do they leave it so late given the creaky postal system. I think last year mine arrived with just 2 days to go. |
| Forum Thread | Orange wine at 20:55 30 Jul 2024
There's been lots of talk on social media (Yeah, I know), about orange wine. I saw a bottle in Waitrose, special intro price so I bought it. I'm on beer tonight so will sample it tomorrow night. Anyone tried it ? Will I be stricken or be puking ? |

I know it's tough for people going on holiday and business, but for those of us living under the Biggin Hill flightpath it's been so peaceful the last few days. Last peaceful time was of course during Covid. |

I know there are a few of us on here. I've just received an email from Linn informing me of the latest version of the LP12 turntable that I've had for over 25 years…..a snip at £25,000 ! Blimey O'Reilly ! |
