useless Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 (edited) One of the bookshops was voted best Independent bookshop in the UK a few years ago, and it's not even the best bookshop in Wenlock high street. Also the queues at the butchers gets ridiculously long especially at Christmas. Another weird thing about Wenlock, is that vicar goes around with no shoes and socks on, even in the winter when there's snow/ice on the ground.

I call bullshit. You'd expect an average annual mortality rate of nearly 10x that figure in that sample size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard a similar stat about Man Utd a few years ago, Apparently they reckon 1 in 10 historical season ticket holders are brown bread. Just passed on to other family members to run with and avoid the waiting lists. Edited June 23, 2016 by Kingman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to their supporters, I'd say the dead ones are still turning up in big numbers. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted June 26, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 26, 2016 Blimey. Watching New Order at Glastonbury on the Beeb, they sparked up Love Will Tear Us Apart... all i can think is Hook might have been right to bugger off. Morris is the only one who still looks upto to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morris is the only one who still looks upto to it. I watched a few minutes of their set, thought dear oh dear and went off and did something else. I wouldn't have been happy with that quality from a tribute band. I'd certainly expect after 30 or 40 years that Sumner would understand how to breath whilst singing, regardless of the quality of the singing voice.

It has a reasonable beer festival and a shopping centre "Freeport" which sells cheap goods. The cricket club is decent, on and they've got a football team that's one of these non-league clubs pumped up with cash that's now in the football league. But, no, not really worth a look.

tonyh29 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Old man just drove into Mrs H's car as she was talking to him I could hear him saying there's nothing wrong with it and then got in the car and drove off Luckily she had taken my advice and taken photo's of his car and a witness nearby just also offered to help her But what's the betting the old bill wont even give a monkeys even though technically he's just left the scene of an accident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you got his registration number, and he's just driven off without swapping detail, they'll 100% do something about it. I bet he probably voted out too, the old word removed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breathing our oxygen with limited years left, voting out and destroying opportunities for other generations. I suspect he was on the wrong side during the war too.
