Local Facebook groups

[FredericRobinson]

As long as I've lived here the local group has had a pinned message at the top

'How do I post on here plz, new member'

There are no replies

Yes you certainly should apologise to the teacher, what a load of incomprehensible dribble

[Spare tyre]

Has anyone mentioned their local group here to invite the new village idiot from PH to join in? Could be a laugh

I actually unfollowed my own sister on FB because she would share posts, daily, about missing cats from all over Europe, bloody moron.

My wife also does this. How do I tell her?

Tell her they get people to share these posts in order to spread viruses. And that your computer is now infested.

Is that the Earley, suburb of Reading/Wokingham?

If so a mate of mine from work does some epic trolling in it. Some of the people, you actually wonder how they function from day to day!

Anyway, caravan update.
She's still there. Tide seems to be turning with locals becoming a lot more sympathetic to her plight. Someone posted yesterday that there was a smell in the area and it had coincided with her turning up. Must be her tipping her waste down the drain. Poster was pretty soundly told she was being ridiculous and that people were starting to blame caravan lady for everything.
She's now got a transit van she parks on the supermarket car park up the road. She dries her washing in the back of it. Not a life you'd choose I imagine.

Pretty sure this deserves its own thread!

Almost word for word what a conversation with my mum is like. She wonders why I'm never keen to go round and visit.

She'd fit in perfectly around here, PH has become angry old person shaking fist at clouds central in recent times.....

Same as I did with my wife. Block her.

One of them has even bought a 'Thunder jacket' for her dog? The mind boggles.

We've got one of those for our dog and it seems to work. It's basically just a wrap type thing that goes round the dogs torso. Overpriced, because furbaby obvs

My obese neighbours have their car covered in stickers declaring they have this invisible disease...!

Is that a thing? Stickers on your car for health conditions?

You could respond with some “Please leave a two metre gap, I have piles” bumper stickers.

What’s annoying me in the marketplace recently is some people think all bikers are exactly the same size. Even bikers themselves. Plus the amount of useful info they add is staggering.
Here’s an average one. Just the one pic.

Oh great, what with mentions of “fibromyalgia”, “obese”, and “Vauxhall Merida”, I’m getting targeted ads for motability cars...

"Does anyone know what time Asda is open?"

"What time is the Natwest open?"

Clearly it's that time of year again, lots of posts similar to the above that could be answered with 2 seconds on Google or to find the link to the official page for the company in question if you don't trust the Google summary.

But I'm the bad guy for pointing this out.

This morning someone lambasted Morrisons for increasing the cost of plastic bags, accusing them of profiteering. I posted a link showing how the income from bag sales was donated to charities and my post was deleted...

Ads? How very old school.

Indeed it is!
