Do continue.

Of the people I know, the single parents (Inc weekend dads) are a bit council. More that they're parents than being single, having kids prior to being sure they were compatible. Dunno, maybe I've watched too much Kyle.
( Widows/widowers not included, obviously.)

Too much JK for you mate I think

Returning the thread to topic, here is the sign for a barbers just down the road from my student house.

I certainly do agree with the sign.... though not in the way it intends.....

You live in a caansil ahse.

Perhaps the people you know are somewhat self selecting.

So you watch JK

Are you happily married at the moment and more importantly is your wife?


















You sure about that...

Surely that is more council than being a single parent...

So only 'council' people get divorced?

Um, no.

Only "council" people expect the Govt to support their kids.

The only thing more council is being on Jk.

I didn't think West Sussex was council. At least, not until I moved here!

And not giving it a thought.

Not a particualrly unique 'a bit council' trend.

Worst offenders at my local supermarket are single women who can't be arsed to walk more than a few feet to buy one or two items from the store. Fat birds are especially prone to this!

First part of your post unnecessary, second part spot on.

I think South Yorkshire quite swiftly disproves that one!

Where do things stand with 'bangernomics'? A popular means of economical motoring for many PHers but many of the cars being chosen are decidedly 'council'.

I suspect most people collect their Child Benefit each month.

It's more the "feckless fathers/mothers having kids with multiple partners and not contributing financially towards their upkeep in the knowledge that Nanny State will be along to provide" that, I think, typifies "council" mentality.

That would be quite tricky, considering the 1 Series has only been around since 2004...

Or even "lovely jubbly".

I so wanted to post this /\ but didn't want to come across as a pedant.
