Credit where it's due - they must've taken some stealing

What are they? Giant candles?

There's a woman down my (nicely appointed, private) road drives a P38, in gold. Ughh.

She's clearly 'old money' but every time I see her in it I think, 'cahncil!'

There is an old woman down your road "driving" this... that's not at all cahncil

I know I've said MSport before but after seeing someone describe their E36 as an M Sport this morning it has made me want to rant again.

BMW why did you do this.

I have to defend the cockneys here. In their accent, this works and has a certain charm and historic purity.

No it doesn't. Charm and historic purity, what the fk have you been smoking?

Watching Eastenders, any soap is cahncil.

Photos of things from movies with a quote on are explicitly council. The only people who share those god awful minion quotes on Facebook are 100% council. stop it.

Having a Facebook account = Council.

How about a couple of massive pretend candles in your front garden?

Garden?

That flue is very council as well.

The one in the centre of the picture, or the one to the right of the candle that doesn't comply with gas regs?

[manic47]

I'll add... naming a child 'Daymeon'

Then again, the mum in question has an equally misspelt name

isn't +1 council?

[dannyDC2]

Facebook is an awesome tool for us 'petrolheads'.

What I don't get are people who don't have hobbies, like my mrs, why do they have Facebook accounts? All she does is moan about other girls posting their glamorous gifts, or about people themselves moaning.

I don't think I'd have it if it weren't for the 'car friends' aspect.

In short, -1 on that .

Words that end in "g" being ended with a "k". And an f in there somewhere, like "anyfink". I should, or could "of". I expect this has already cropped up given the number of pages so apologies but it does rile me. Grrr.

Pure cockernee geezer

I have to defend the cockneys here. In their accent, this works and has a certain charm and historic purity.

The ones I hear are a modern west country take on things, including all the worst language practices thrown together. Truly abominable and stomach churning. (To be clear, I am not referring to the original west country type of accent)

Obviously the Cockneys, the true ones that I knew and lived amongst in the 60's, have gone then. Everyday language included going up the apples and pears to get me joe rocks and to check me barnet fair, but I cannot remember anyfink coming into the speech.

She does not! Unless someone else is buying them.
