Is wall mounting TV's council ?

Ooops, both of ours are wall mounted downstairs.
It’s only council if you don’t hide the cables and just leave them dangling.
Hmm, what about if hidden behind a decent centre speaker fed by a separate amplifier that covers the gap between the bottom of the tv and the cabinet underneath, thus removing the need to put the cables into the wall ?

I had one as well when I was about 13. It's as an adult it's weird.
I had to look up Steve Austin as I knew that wasn't Lee Majors.

Can I therefore add WWE to the council list.

The Argos clown pendant:



One of the barmaids in my old local used to wear one. My cousin was going out with her for quite a while, much to his parents' horror. His dad bribed him into off-hiring her when they went for a meal in a smart restaurant and she asked for egg and chips.
Surely living close enough to family so as to share the same pub as them is council. Family should be distant people living at least 15 miles away. Maybe in the same big city, never in the same post code. Trez councillieros!
LOL!, My ex or someone in her family had one of those. They were all a lot council despite me referring them to constantly as s. They also:

had lots of jewellery
bought clothes at the market
went out for the day to a local big market
referred to me 'as a bit posh'
Swore a lot
Had lot of chocolate in the kitchen, all cheap copies of branded stuff
Stupid ornaments in the house, like 2 big white dogs either side of the fireplace

Thank fk I escaped!!!

Well in the course of my work I visit many social housing properties.

Thus quite a few posts from me in this thread

A gem from this afternoon

Family semi. Every single inch of the front side rear garden covered in excrement.

Children's toys amongst it. Myself and two contractors had to tip toe: genuinely you could not put yr feet together on the floor.

Of course none of this is the families fault, it's not their dogs : of course being on benefits they naturally have loads

Added to this "I'm suing you" because mr was cutting the grass ( I find hard to believe as the grass was non existent amongst the mud and poo) and has got dog poo in his eye and is actually quite ill.

One for social services tomorrow with regard to the children.
A few years ago I met a mother and daughter who had gone blind due to toxoplasmosis from cat poo

A bit council doesn't even describe how some stratas of society live.

Camo jackets were trendy about ten years. Still wear my Bape & Carhartt camo jackets circa 2001. I'm 35 so might get away with it. Looks odd on older blokes.

Sadly I'm a junglist (soundtrack of council estates in the 90s).

Been listening to Platinum Breakz 1&2

Yes, most wrestlers are - it's strictly entertainment business, hardly the real "sport".
With a few exceptions, of course.

Working in one of the countries largest 'Council' towns I have noticed that it is now normal to miss out the words "to the" in sentences.

e.g.

"I'm going to the pub"

has become

"I'm going pub"

This really winds me up.

Stevenage?

The old town excepted that hateful place is the true definition of council. Miserable grey uninspiring sthole. (I lived there for a couple of years before escaping)
