Paddywhack Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Whenever I wash my hands after toileting at work, out of habit I chuck a load of cold water in my face to wake up and freshen up a bit. Then I remember that they removed all paper towels a few months back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon out of those three that Marbella must be the worst! It’d be full of Representatives for Wellingborough from Essex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah mate, you don’t want culture. You wanna go somewhere like Ocean Club where all the blokes will dress the same and have shit haircuts and all the women will look like they’ve been in an explosion at a beauty salon. I’ve never actually been, but in my old workplace our support staff in the back office were mostly from Essex. Every year nearly all of them would be “going Marbs” or “Sharm”. And most of them were also words removed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Some silly bint at work who keeps telling people LOUDLY how her holiday has really strengthened her feeling of “wanderlust”. Firstly, I hate that **** word. And secondly, come off it love - you’ve just had a two weeker in Bali, you’re hardly Michael Palin. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its called having a job which all students going back in time have usually had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 It's parents sending their kids off to college time guys. Gotta have a few stories doing the rounds which get round to suggesting your little girl might end up down the strip club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
