Having so little shame that at lunchtime in TESCO Express you're prepared to buy "Two bottles of Gordons, please luv"...then try three different cards before your payment is accepted. In front of a huge queue.
Extra points if they have a pale, sweaty look and bags under their eyes.Morningside said:
Sorry, but I liked Kiss when it was a pirate radio station. When it become commercialised it turned to crap when they have to push the same 5 songs/tunes/tracks all day.
LWR should have got the license not Kiss; but you're right it did turn Kiss into a complete joke.Though it was funny to hear them providing live commentary when they were about to be raided, IIRC from a block over in Mottingham one night.

Since it is the season to be fairy and to be of good beer I give you this:-
I go past it most days but never at night - I couldn't stand it. They started this annual event at the beginning of November. But I am sure you can show better.
Looks more Conseil départemental to be honest.

To get us all into the Christmas spirit, I wonder if there should there be a thread devoted to Festively bedecked Houses?I go past it most days but never at night - I couldn't stand it. They started this annual event at the beginning of November. But I am sure you can show better.
Maybe a small prize for the most endearing...
In my local Co-op, i often see the same smartly dressed woman queuing up to buy a bottle of their cheapest Vodka
If you're unfortunate enough to be stood behind her in the queue, the smell of piss and cheap Vodka is enough to put you off your dinner for a week.
My guess is that her house is probably of 'non standard construction' and she owns a lot of Staffies.

So why smartly dressed? Keeping up a front of respectability perhaps? Maybe not council, just an alky clinging on to one last standard.If you're unfortunate enough to be stood behind her in the queue, the smell of piss and cheap Vodka is enough to put you off your dinner for a week.

When I read "smartly dressed" I did wonder if it was for making sloe vodka or similar (we make our own raspberry vodka and use cheap stuff to make it, buying a few bottles in one go).
The smell part means that is not likely.
I have to say the 'cheapest vodka', I could easily concur to some degree.The smell part means that is not likely.
If you have a preference for a long drink, or a cocktail of some description then the brand/age/quality of your alcohol is of considerably less importance. I am not a regular consumer of vodka by any means, but I can easily appreciate the difference between them, assuming a plain vodka. Mixed as a Bloody Mary, I would be lost.
Even most scotch, the flavour of which will be distinctively different between brands, will be difficult to differentiate when in a classic cocktail such as a whiskey sour (would normally be made with rye rather than scotch).
Seeing 'smartly dressed', I immediately imagined the has-been movie star or well off middle class look.
The smell of urine is simply not figuring into the picture that developed in my mind.
Perhaps I do not share the same definition of 'smartly dressed'.
In any case the image provokes sympathy on my part.

Is she per chance wearing anything in tweed?
That will quite naturally smell of a northerner's urine when wet.

Much as it pains me to credit some tosspot hipster London coffee joint, but Ugg Boots, aka Slag Wellies (snigger)

Double council points when twinned with a fake pink Juicy Couture velour tracksuit with the bottoms hanging halfway down a fat arse, probably doing that thong poking out like a cheesewire thing.

But by God, she smelt of tramp. I smelt her long before I realised it was her

Another vote for this. I remember a similar thread on another forum a few years ago and there were some hilarious examples.Maybe a small prize for the most endearing...
