A bit council Vol 2

The North is wherever you find peas, curry, gravy and cheese in chip shops.

To be Northern is to be aggrieved and disgusted whenever you're in a chippy anywhere that doesn't offer all the above.

Oh yes, I can associate with that. I'm a softy from Norfolk, six digits and all that.............

I now live in Ulster. We get a lot of Scottish people in Chinese takeaways asking for "curry mix" whatever that might be. They seem astonished if nobody knows what they're on about. If they get half-chips/half-rice they moan like f*** about "where's the rest of it?" JUST ASK FOR IT PROPERLY! Monkeys. Even a curry chip (always without the final "s") is disgusting. They're animals. Why bother to cook a chip to crisp perfection only to pour greasy sauce over it and make it soggy? Only a retarded halfwit would do that.

No cheese? What do you mean no cheese? You must have some. Well no actually, this is a Chinese takeaway and nothing on our menu contains cheese, hence no cheese on premises.

Sorry about the rant. I could go on for ages. They are just as you described - aggrieved hardly covers it. I thinh they might be a tad confused in Le Manoir au Quatre Saisons.

Everyone needs to know, right?

thats just awful

Isn't it just! Wearing hi-vis in public...

Personally I wouldn't put such a sticker on my car, but after losing two kids ourselves, the missus lights a candle of some sort on a specific date each year (not sure the date) as something that unites mothers around the globe, post pic up onto facebook etc.

Not on facebook myself, not overly a fan of the idea but if it helps them then fair enough. This is one thing I'd say isn't a bit council but picking it up as an issue for the thread, is.

Id never do anything like that, but if it helps the person who lost the child then fair play to them

Losing a child has got to be one of the most heartbreaking things that can happen

So they bought a car in her memory?

That is atrocious.

Plot Twist - a girl I work with borrowed her sisters car recently, and it had a similar sticker. It was for a pet dog that died, not a child.... Off the scale council right there.

Heard in a southern chip shop some years ago:

"Nae pay wet? Asta geet nowt moist?"

The Chinese lady at the counter was a bit confused, so I translated for her and she offered curry sauce. Bloke stormed out. No idea why he thought he was going to find pay wet in any other Reading chip shop.

It did seem odd, even for the worst council parent, that they couldn't be a bit more precise with the date of birth and death.

This is true! And if you ask for bits in your chips and they look at you with a WTF face, you are in the south.

[SpeckledJim]

I genuinely feel very sorry for anyone who doesn't have a proper chippy.

To the extent of "yes, he's tall and handsome, yes, he won the lottery last year, and yes, his missus is unbe-flumping-LEEEEvable, but he can't pop into Codfather on the way home from the pub, can he!? Losertron."

Actually there is a chippy in Bath that does chips 't curry sauce. I can't remember if it does cheese as well, but I'd imagine it would be a home away from home for your average Northerner.

I passed a council type this morning,painting a fence, 2 inch brush, with 2.5 litre can on the floor, so every two strokes he had to walk back to the can, dripping paint on the footpath.

its going to be a long job.

thats just awful, very sad dont get me wrong, but why would you actively want that printed and put on your car?!!?

Maybe they ran her over and that's where she hit the car?

Like chavs putting flowers at the scene of an accident?

[nigelpugh7]

Now this is some proper council tat!

Came up,on my Facebook feed in items for sale..

Also it looks like it's a US style plug for 110v mains, they will have one hell of a shock if they do plug it into a socket!

I must check this out, the South West's idea of a steak and kidney pudding is a bloody ginsters abortion of cat turd and chopped liver.

[austinsmirk]

got a new one for the thread.


parking yr car up in the street, alongside another car. vehicles could be parked facing the same way or opposite.

and then having a long conversation, usually whilst parked badly/blocking traffic.


and then being bewildered/angered when asked to move.

'Council'?

Are we just picking large swaths of the country now?
Most of those 2 counties are very rural

In defence of the opinion, Leicestershire has its county town, and Lincolnshire has Skegness. Both are so council they outweigh large amounts of greenery.

This is Belvoir castle.
It's pronounced Beaver

So qualifies as council under both the misspelt name and unfortunate name rules.

This isn't council, it's countryside.

That was my thought initially, but then I imagine Austin probably isn't referring to a nice country lane and two decent folk having a chat about the upcoming village cricket match.
