Off Topic And Now for Something Completely Different

Moving stuff. And a reminder to all parents that even when their kids are making them tear their hair out that having a fit and healthy kid is a blessing,

 

What’s your point?

 

You can’t get it?

 

I asked because it comes across as you justifying bombing civilians based on who they voted for and if I just said that straight away you’d pretend that’s not what you meant.

 

Any demonstrations in Gaza against Hamas, who they voted in, for killing civilians, including youngsters, on October 7th? The ones from Leeds were given a better life here and repaid that by murdering people. Should we have attacked all Muslims the way people in London are attacking and calling for the deaths of Jews who have never set foot in Israel?

 

Again, what’s your point?

 

Witney Houston on the BBC on now.... what a talent she was. What a waste...

 

Agreed.

She could have been the ticket man at Fulham Broadway Station.

 

Them was the days, pub at dinnertime then back to work.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

I worked for the wood company behind Oriental Pub and we got paid on a Friday morning in the old brown wage packets. We always went into the pub on a Friday dinner and it always depended what mood we where in whether we went back on the afternoon. Although this happened every Friday, they never changed the time they paid us.
One time I couldn't afford to go in having been off the previous week so had no wages to come, it got to one o'clock and the foreman asked me to go into the pub and tell everyone in there to come back to work. You can imagine the banter I got aimed at me, then one of the blokes got me a pint in and I ended up staying as well. On the Saturday morning overtime the foreman went ballistic at me for staying at the pub.
Those where the days.

 

Had similar situations like that, i remember the brown envelope wage packet with the payslip and cash in to.

 

Armstrongs?

 

Can’t believe I can remember when a pint of Stella was 60p when I was 16..

 

Instead of that she tried to play the fool in a six-piece band

 

Yes mate, it eventually closed down. For months we was working stupid hours seven days a week and we goes in one morning and told that's it, no job anymore.
It took a full year to get all our money out of them.

Sorry, this was a reply to the Armstrong query from Heimdallr.

 

I worked for Crown Wallpapers late 70's/early 80's,only 5 of us in the Warehouse.We used to do the same on a Friday,pay packet,hour break,enough time to throw a few down your neck and give yourself a good glow.

4 of us always went back and 1 usually never.He was a really heavy binge drinker,got the taste for it,went on it for the weekend and you'd see him Monday(sometimes).Other times his Mrs would turn up looking for him with the bairns in the buggy,as he hadn't been home all weekend...

 

Don’t you mean the Tansad Rover.

Sorry meant Ric !
