I'm sure we've had 'Short Sleeves in Work'... Semi council.

Short sleeve shirt in Church? (regardless of the occasion..): Full fat council.
Even for the archbishop?

(Yes, I did google 'Short sleeve clergy shirt')

Prosecco and champagne are already in the bin, unless its Moet.
Nope, I would say Moet is the most Council of Champagnes.

I think single Malt Whisky is one of the least Council drinks.

Moët is only council if it is pronounced "moway" by the purchaser / consumer. If it is pronounced "mo-ett", then it is not council.

Actually you should pronounce it 'mo'wett', the founder had a Dutch name.

No, that would be Cristal.

Gaudy packaging? Check
Name checked in popular music? Check
Drank in large quantities by the Nouveau riche? Check

Surely anyone with any sense, who relies on taxis to go shopping, would invest in an insulated bag for frozen stuff...especially when shopping on a hot day !

Can't believe he's only 40 years old as well, looks like he's in his mid fifties.

Taxi firm handled the response pretty well, I would have put a lifetime ban on the customer.

A distinct lack of sagging and lines for mid fifties. I'd say 40 is about right.

WTF is this all about, previously celebs/the rich used to show off their owned homes in papers. Now we have renter's doing it!

"What I Rent is a weekly series in which we take you inside a different person’s rented property, to see how much they pay and what they get in return"

You've got to love hardcore drinkers. I had lunch at 'Spoons in Wishaw (East Kilbride / Livingstone / Hamilton kind of area) last week. That was just incredible. Lots of hardcore daytime drinking going on.
