Odds on the father and daughter both have the latest iPhone on contract along with a decent Sky package at home

"Council" have never understood priorities as others see them. Watch any benefits-style programme on TV and as soon as they get their money it's fags, booze and scratchcards. Maybe £5 on the electricity meter. They then spend £100 at Iceland and claim it'll last them a month.

Kids clothes/shoes? Nah. It'll have to wait till next month.

This is true. Years ago I worked in a call centre for a bank. When they went overdrawn (the banks fault, obviously) and they called us, we could suggest cancelling some DD. They would never cancel their sky (they always had it) but would think nothing of cancelling the council tax direct debit, or the payday loans one, or the credit card one, or the....

I like the woman in the comments saying she and her husband work full time, have a toddler and "can't afford diddly squat".

Shouldn't have had the fking child then should you, Brains!

Gets on my nerves that one. Regularly on the various benefits programmes that fill Channel 4's schedule someone asks the camera how they are expected to provide for their kids. Now I understand there are a great number of circumstances people find themselves beyond their control but it seems that most British people think having kids is their right and that if they can't afford to raise them that's the states problem. Surely it's high time we scrapped all tax and cash incentives to have kids and start dishing out contraceptives at the dole office.

The comment on the Swindon advertiser site? The comment that is obviously sarcastic and piss taking, that comment?

Side order of whoosh parrots for you two

I wasn't referring to that comment specifically, didn't even click on the link but people do say such things with a straight face and it's definitely council to expect others to pay for your brats. I'll take good care of the parrot though.

I was given to understand that a parrot is awarded for stating ths blee**** obvious. No sign of that here. Possible enlightenment?

It took them 94 years to design that?

I'm going to have to point out that those aren't a council invention.

First place I ever saw one was Lakeland.

[V8mate]

I've not seen an electric one before.

You can buy the hob version in several places. Not cheap though... even Aldi wanted £30 for one.

Have we had purple chips yet? Because Iceland are selling purple chips now

For the life of me, I can not see how this could work in any practical way.
All the compartments are too small to perform their tasks, aside from warming the beans and just maybe frying the eggs sunny side up.

Glorified warming tray for people who don't like their food items to touch.

Do I get a parrot?

Saw a Ford F150 today on rimz with the regulation air bushed scene from Wyoming, with wolves, deer, the lot on the tail gate. It was a whole world of council.

I've got the hob version, if you try hard you can get about 5000 calories in it

[ChemicalChaos]

I never got those separated frying pans. I mean, whats wrong with your hash browns touching your eggs and bacon?

Anyway, I saw a great example today. Bloke walking out of the local tesco, crate of stella under one arm, yelling at his staffy dog to get back here as it wandered - with no leash on it - towards the busy road.

I was forced at gunpoint into The Range today. 'Barzebos' on offer. Not even Peter Kay could defend these Council'tastic offences to taste!

That's nearly my breakfast. I'm pretty lazy and council so the electric version will do for me, and it'll be my brother's birthday present too!

That was me, sorry mate

Am I right to think this is just plug-in and go? No hob required?

If I loaded this up with stuff then plugged it into one of those timer things and placed it by my bed, would I be able to wake up to a full English?

If so, I'll have three. One for breakfast one for lunch (Dinner). And one for supper (tea)

Add a Stella branded beer fridge and there'd be no need to get out of bed at all. I'll just piss out of the window and worry about stting when it happens.

Also a lady with tats on her tits and a tag on her ankle and my friends we are living the dream.

Would it be Council to load it up with the ingredients the night before and leave it plugged into a socket with a timer?

Wasn't that just 300bhp in his new daily?
