Bare chested or bare knuckle, I believe bare back relates to something else.

Indeed. I rather like the idea of watching bare back fighting:-) I accept it is council, but even so. I'm in.

Not knowing how to use the recycling bin.

Quite early on someone noted 'House number painted on a brick in the wall' which made me smile as it's so quintessentially Council, has to be one of my favourites.

Not quite, usually its done in gloss paint, with drips, 3' high with the numbers done at different levels. Bonus points if its painted on a ply panel screwed across the glass section on yr front door.

The once brown ply panel, now having greyed over the passage of time.


we used to joke about posh tnts: instead of a window cleaner they'd have someone round to sand the boards on their wiindows once a week.

About 12 years ago we went on an all inclusive holiday to Alcudia called Club Mac as my kids where 3 and it was their 1st holiday abroad and I wanted a short flight with lots of options on what they could have to eat.

Omg the most shocking council place I have ever seen and what's worse I was stuck there for 2 weeks.
Kids running wild, parents p!ssed up fighting in the hotel bare back at night.

Sh!t in the pool, kids drowning almost every day due to the parents not giving a feck about their welfare.

Never ever again.

Look the place up on trip advisor the reviews are shocking.

Not my sort of place but overall the reviews aren't bad.

[Dog Star]

From Tripadvisor reviews section on the Flamingo place in Benidorm with the "Olympic sunbed dash" (see Youtube)...

"Watch out when you leave the hotel, you may get run over by the amount of people in mobility scooters whizzing
round all over the place, its unreal!"

Says it all, really!

Does your missus wear rigger boots when you go racing? That's the clincher for me...

I had to Google what a "rigger boot" is. I don't know whether to be proud of that or not.

Go banger racing, they're all the rage amongst the Kylies and Courtneys...

The council-bird-fanciers will be all a-quiver at that mental image.

Have we had listing as your alma mater on Facebook the state comp which you "graduated from" at 16 with a couple of D grade GCSEs?

Or 'School of Hard Knocks' and 'University of Life'

As for girls in Rigger boots. Hmmmmm I feel a Google picture search coming on with safe search /off.

Having three 64 reg Corsas on your drive.

[wildcat45]

Just searched. Does nothing for me.

Unless you drive an Evoque or a white german car.

What about Range Rover Sport, or any Range Rover for that matter?

This thread has made me realize I may be council.

One of my daughters has a double barrel 1st name.

I like speedway, banger racing, and other forms of oval racing.

I like greyhound racing.

We have a trampoline.

We live on benefits.

We live in a council house.

However...

We keep a clean house.

My kids respect there elders, and know there manors.

All pets receive vets treatment when needed.

The benefits are DLA for 2 specials needs children, and carers allowance.

So am I council, or just a bloke struggling to keep his head above water?

"Upper council", perhaps?

I do think this thread is about piss taking and fun. I like half the stuff mentioned in it (not washing up bowls though).

DLA is neither council or non council.

Edited by 0a on Wednesday 31st August 23:21

I reckon that DLA in itself is fine. Fraudulently claiming DLA is pretty much the most council thing possible

Sitting in the car waiting for my wife listening to some classical music when I hear lots of shouting and general council noise.

I glance over and see council gold.

Extra points for the black wheels?

Depends on whether they're aftermarket or Vauxhall's funny shaped steel wheels

Taking a photo on a camera phone from 1972 is pretty council

But I think taking a photo on the latest iPhone on a PAYG contract would be more so.

For the record, Puerto Pollensa is where the Cameron's go on holiday and does not have any nightclubs at all. Just a generally nice place to relax.

So sounds like the Club Mac lady who claimed she would not go there because the clubs shut early was just a scrutter getting above her station.

Do they go All Inclusive, or self catering like me?

AFAIK no all inclusive in Puerto Pollensa. Only a few hotels.

Like a lot of council things though, good fun and an excellent (if noisy) way to spend a Bank Holiday afternoon.

Bisto or Oxo?
