Like I said, council who's done good.
There are some really bizarre suggestions on here.
Fly spray? Really? - suppose you all must get Jeeves to chase them around with a fly swat.

Not sure any of those above are particularly council.
I'm in a senior management role and wear a company branded shirt (like a pit-crew shirt) or polo and have company jackets / coats, too. I wear a pass on a lanyard so people know who I am when visiting a 3rd party owned location. I also wear a branded hi-vis which sometimes gets left on when I'm driving between sites or driving home.
Our UK MD does the same, too!

And company branded T-shirts and jackets.
Why? I used to wear branded clothing all the time at work and it was my company, unless I was supposed to get changed in the office on arrival and when leaving.Some of the definitions are getting ridiculous now - basically, according to this thread, everyone who's ever lived is council.
Something I've recently witnessed while shopping for my poussin is people being in different aisles shouting each other like they are looking for a lost child in a Forrest.
Mandy: DAVE DO YOU FANCY GRAVY
Dave: YES TREACLE GET SOME OF THAT st.
They must be three aisles apart.

Probably been said before but always think council/tacky when I pass a house and see one of those cheap
" HOME" or "LOVE" things in the window- what the hells that all about? I think people gather its your home as it's where you live. And what do you love? - crappy, cheap tat or what??
My sister has exactly those in big wooden letters on two shelves in her flat. Last time I was there I changed them to read "EVEL HOMO" and it was ages before she noticed."

People who try and take huge fkoff suitcases on as hand luggage.
This, definitely.Especially if accompanied by a couple of massive bags of tat from airport shops, meaning I have to put my small rucksack under the seat.
I travel a lot on business. I have recently given up on taking carry-ons as the luggage is usually on the carousel by the time I've cleared passport control, or shortly after. The hassles of fighting for a space in the over head bins (and possibly having a wheelie bag at my feet) is not worth the margin gain in time on arrival. Also I don't have to unpack my bag to get at the liquids in security or drag the thing all round the airport.
Very liberating.
However, when I have to take my bag on board, I make sure that I'm one of the first on the plane so I have the pick of the overhead bins. Executive club or Speedy boarding privileges.
All about distressing my life.

Ive been a house with this running in the kitchen. Instead of dealing with the fly problem: i.e. a household of drunks, drug addicts, filth and of course animals: someone has actually made the effort to buy this and set it up.
An outdoor bug zapper and cold b33r.Nothing sets up for a good old fashioned redneck evening on the porch better than that.
