StefanAVFC Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I'm annoyed at myself. Went out last night in Krakow, met a bunch of lads from Barnsley. Planned to go out with them again tonight, lost their details. Only got one of their first names and where they're from. Can't find em. Will have to get a new group tonight!

snowychap Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Have people suddenly lost the ability to park a **** car without leaving a gap of nearly a third of a car's length between their car and the next vehicle? Everyone on the road I live seems to be doing it now. No wonder there aren't enough spaces to park everyone's cars if they're all abandoning them like that. Nob ends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brits would say "DAY-ta" - and I once worked with an older guy, who always pronounced it "DAH-ta". The 'estuary' version would be glottal stopped - "DAY'a".
