I don't think I would have, I think I've tried not to mention work too much on soshie sites. You never know who's looking in. But I'm currently working on a truly significant shed, no expense spared. Seriously, we're talking about weeks of research in to types and shades of timber veneer alone. Tell us about your shed project in the cheer-me-up thread,then, but living in a Tory constituency should you not call it a yurt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remember them going on for this **** long, either. 4 and a half hours and counting. I have nothing against a decent community event in a park with fireworks, food and what have you. Being subjected to every clearing in the woods in their garden trying to blow the moon out of the sky is starting to wear down my patience.

sidcow Posted November 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted November 5, 2016 Something which is really beginning to bug me and I am noticing more and more is this. I work in town and many of the pavements are busy and narrow, this does happen everywhere but I have it happening very regularly outside my office where the pavement has been diverted onto a narrow segregated part of the road because of building work. People walking in the opposite direction in a group will walk several abreast and not drop back to make space until you literally have to bring yourself to a total stop and only now that you are an unmoving obstacle in their path do they move over. It's so incredibly rude and arrogant. If I am I a similar group and see someone coming the other way I will always drop back behind my group to allow people space to walk past. I mean what is going through these peoples heads? Assuming they are not actually proposing that we literally collide head on they will have to move anyway so why wait till I am stationary right in front of them? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pre-book a return for about £15; even if you get it on the day it's usually less than £50. was from Cardiff tbf On the way back so far just an old lady having multiple phone conversations telling everyone she's going to be home tonight. Which is nice. However Villa won today and I managed to have a pub burger and 2 pints in London for a tenner which I had heard was impossible so it's all good.

Popular Post Phumfeinz Posted November 5, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) I had to get a National Express coach from an airport once. During the journey the driver had to slam on the brakes, and some poor sap who was in the little bathroom at the back of the bus came flying through the door and wound up on the floor halfway down the aisle with his trousers around his ankles. The look of pure anguish on his face... It was and will always be the funniest **** thing I've ever seen. Just recalling it now has me in fits of giggles.

Popular Post Ingram85 Posted November 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2016 When people refer to Brexit as "the will of the British people". No. No it isn't. It's the will of a tiny bit more than 50% of the British people who actually voted. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrating the burning of Catholics 400 years after the event, in an age where toleration has been added to the Decalogue, seems strange, but keeping pets seems odd to those who can't imagine having any themselves.

mjmooney Posted November 6, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted November 6, 2016 So, a planned terrorist outrage is thwarted by the ever-vigilant security forces. The perpetrators mostly get away, but a couple of stooges are fingered and dealt with. Then all their co-religionists are suspected of being an enemy within, and potential terrorists, and are mercilessly hounded by vigilantes. Sound familiar? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Trump saying he survived an assassination attempt. The 'attempt' was a GOP supporter with a 'Republicans against Trump sign', who then got strangled and attacked. Him and his fans are monsters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I was over the Island yesterday evening for the free Round Table funded fireworks display. Admittedly I wasn't sensitive and looking for it, but I didn't pick up any anti catholic vibe from the crowd. all calm again this morning (neither of these are my photos, just robbed off twatter) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Davkaus Posted November 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2016 It was one of the best assassination attempts. One of the very best, top two at least. Just the other day. People tell me, they say Donald, that assassination attempt was tremendous, just tremendous. It takes a real American to survive that. Hilary, let me tell you folks, Hilary, she is not fit to face this. If I put a gun to her head, she'd be gone. She'd, you know, it's for the best too, let me tell you. Bill is raping absolutely everyone. Just the other day. People are walking down the street, and bill Clinton is raping them. It's not just me saying this Hilary said it. Sean Hannity heard it, you just ask him. The things Hilary says about me... It was her in the crowd too, you know it. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the main presenter but his/her sidekick lackies who, for no good reason, make themselves out to be whacky/zany, making unfunny add ons to the main presenter's jokes after laughing sycophantically. They see themselves as part of a madcap breakfast possé or crew when in reality they're probably as interesting as an empty shoe box. Frank Skinner's Saturday show has them (absolute radio) as does the same station's weekday show with Christian O'Connell. You're not famous; you're not funny. Shut up with your inane drivel and play some decent music and DON'T talk over the track at the end !!! The guy on Chris Moyles' show back in the day was the worst. 'Comedy Dave' - absolute unfunny, suck up, sychophantic word removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
