Uk holidays in Centre Parcs.
This is very council IMHO, the one we went to (opps) was just a glorified Butlins in the woods. Still lots of folk in the sports bar getting a bit drunk and shouting endlessly at their kids.Back in my youth I spent a lot of time at the local Center Parcs as my mum could get me & my friends in on her day pass. It wasn't too council back then (early 90s) but it certainly is now. You can spot a lot of crew-cab black Navarro pick-ups with 'Animal' written on them in the carpark for starters.
Having said that, we've bumped into John Barnes, Steve Davis and a famous cricket person (I've no idea who but my mate recognised him) there. We were sat next to, as in inches away from, Richard Branson and family in the disco one night, and – I promise this is 100% true – intergalactic space-person Stephen Hawkin ran over my foot on the dancefloor.

Does not include numbered houses that folk have decided to name though and insisting folk use it when addressing the house. This is very council. This would piss me off if I were a postman.
For example:
Rose Cottage,
123 Fake Street,
Fakeland.
Like the time Vera Duckworth put stone cladding on their terraced house and named it 'The Old Rectory'.For example:
Rose Cottage,
123 Fake Street,
Fakeland.

Sending a letter (yes an actual letter) to friends and family at Christmas saying how the children are and highlighting any significant events through the previous year.
My Mum always receives several.

... though he does appreciate a fine bit of council.
You need one to appreciate the other. It's like the fat on a steak, the sediment in the bottom of the port, or walking the spaniel with a full poo bag in your hand. The yin and the yang, if you will.
However, as I have opined elsewhere, Council seem to generally have more fun, and there's always a place in even the most avowedly non-Council upbringing for the blowsy trollop of a barmaid. Yin and yang.
