state funded schools in birmingham calling children to islamic prayer over the playground speakers, eschewing music lessons music, segregation... and the bbc doing a 'what are british values 'phone in this morning. cunnys.
evening standard , who seem to be phasing out their female genital mutilation wall to wall coverage , for a 'say no to rape in war' campaign. to be published in depth every night,, along with pictures of skinny london supermodels falling out of night clubson cocaine and articles on womens shoes and hanbags which cost £15,000 each.
and articles on 'suuuper property dahrling' that cost £25 million for a studio flat in barnes .tedious double page spreads on walthamstow village , sandwiches that are made by freegans for £50...and avante garde homosexual dance troops from slovienia .this paper says nothing at all to the average londoner.
musicals , and the cast's of musicals, especially amateur ones in church halls,romford, last saturday night.

Posted this before and it's kind of 2000 - 2010 material but people (usually girls/women) who say 'like' every other sentence.
Actually I don't have so much of a problem with girls saying it because it's part of the bonding exercise but mid-20/30 year olds saying it every 5 seconds. Come on !!! You're English, use the language properly and try to get to the end of a sentence without sounding like a teenager.
Still it's one of the best things about travelling - when you get on the plane and you know that you won't be hearing 'I was like ....' for 2 weeks |  | | |

Kippers packaged in the hardest plastic known to mankind, If I want kippers for me tea on a Friday I have to start opening the packet on a Wednesday evening.
''Spreads Straight from the fridge'' there Isn't a butter in the World that ''Spreads Straight from the fridge''.
''Resealable'' peanut bags, they're not bloody ''resealable'' I re-sealed my large bag of peanuts last week and when I picked the bag up the bloody bag burst open and peanuts went everywhere. |
Any item where the packaging requires a newly sharpened Stanley knife to make the slightest impression in the thing that you are going to throw away.
Twitter or X is a toxic hell hole. No wonder everybody decent is migrating to Bluesky. Including LoftforWords and QPR. |  |

Just making sure I'm up to date with recent posts: I have not moved to Bluesky, so obviously I am not decent. Nor have I ever been to a gym, or Chester. However (switching threads), I do like black pudding.
And if I haven't said it in this thread already: people who cycle on the pavement: utter, utter cants. |  |

Had a work event at a very posh hotel the other day. Had to do a few emails so ordered a coffee at the bar. £7 for a double espresso plus 15% service. Shocking obviously and it wasn’t even that good but they had the gall to add an ‘optional’ £1 for charity. So you’re charging me (or my work expenses thankfully in this case) £9.05 for black coffee. You pay the quid to charity out of the £7 you’re charging. |
Wow! Terrible, just terrible.
How on earth can they justify a "service charge" for a coffee?  |  |

If it wasn't a 'like' every five seconds it was an 'um' at the slightest hint of a pause. Todays annoyance is "I'm not gonna lie". Well that's awfully decent of you chap but you could have just chosen to tell me the truth without the unnecessary preamble. Which, unfortunately, now makes me believe that you may indeed be about to lie.
Edit. Ah crap, that was meant to be a reply to Logman. [Post edited 4 Dec 18:39]
