a bit council

[jamiebae]

I didn't think we had 'Council' over here, but I just spotted it walking down the street.

It was a young guy wearing a flat-peak cap at a jaunty angle, and on the front of it was the inscription:

Pu$$y
Money &
Weed

[austinsmirk]

have we had:

couples wearing matching paddock jackets: eg with Suzuki et al emblazened on the back

LED running lights retro fitted to yr car.......... for some reason loved by audi and VW owners: ie a strip light stuck on beneath each headlight.

Pubs with flat roofs.

Extra points of there's a garden on the roof for the landlord's family, with some half dead plants in plastic tubs, an old bench table from the beer garden and two rotties patrolling it.

I had seen that before, but it's still very true

The last flat roof pub around here was demolished and a Sainsbury's was built on the site a few years ago.

Any vehicle running on veg oil, usually Pajeros, old LDV vans or Peugeott 405 estates used for car booting purposes, easily spotted due to the clouds of smoke with various flavour options, namely Full English, Chips or Onion Bhaji.

Here it usually means they're from Schwamendingen, Altstetten or another less lovely suburb, but probably still have a job and some manners/a social conscience.

The general lack of Caaaaahncil is one of the best things about living in Switzerland

LOL @ Ganglandboss.

That Viz article is quality.

I used to frequent this place from time-to-time.

Extra caahncil points for me!

I've never done lunch and dinner, always dinner and tea, along with (white) bread and butter with everything.

CARD company Clintons has withdrawn a Christmas card apparently mocking people living on council estates.

Clintons Cards withdrew the £2 card, available online, after customers slammed the message as prejudiced - although the ‘Council Estate Christmas Card’ was being sold online and was described as ‘funny’ and ‘great for sending at Christmas time.’

The card listed reasons why Santa would live on an estate, including “he has a record for breaking and entering” and “he drinks alcohol during working hours”.

But the apparent humour was lost on dozens of customers who took offence at the card, which also included ‘never actually been seen doing any work in his whole life’ as a reason why Santa must live on a council estate and featured Santa, a tower block and the words ‘10 reasons why Santa Claus must live on a council estate’ on the front.

Surely it's dinner only if you are dining out - otherwise it's supper.
