Me? Council as they come.
What an utterly stupid article.
Must be a great job faffing about on the internet all day to get this crap as journalism!

What gets me is how often Mumsnet threads get reported as "news", but PH never does. I'm sure the "stting yourself" thread would make Ideal DM fodder.

I'm going to take the 5th on that. In my defence, they weren't actually in the Costa, they were loitering outside, scowling.

I used to wear G-Star Raw jeans (the ones with patches on the knees, kind of like a jean cargo trouser) in my teens.

God knows what you guys think of those!
We don't think any less of you. In fact we feel sorry for you, stuck buying from the diffusion label and not being able to afford G-Star's core range.

G-Star "Raw" isn't a diffusion range, it's the full name of the label, but nice attempt at one-upmanship, anyway...

How can it be council when one of their models is a World Chess Champion?

Personally I'll stick with Levi's

Groupon really is the council gift that keeps on giving.
Today we have this delight:

Women's Bracelet Flask


Classy.
And yes, I'm well aware that being on the Groupon mailing list is probably considered council.
If being on the Groupon mailing list is council what is being removed from it with no reason given and not at your request paperbag

A lady called "DonutCone" says that her sister is of the opinion that tin-openers are council.

Is there such a thing as a DonutCone?

It's a descriptive label. I'll leave you to choose what it might be describing.

Costa is full of aspirational council. The types who think that having 'positivity' messages painted on their walls at home makes them appear well-educated.
Live on a new build estate. With a couple of german brand cars (on the knock) on the drive. Don't close the curtains in the evening and can see the huge TV tuned into sky sports in the evening and sofa-TV in the morning.

Parents complain that sausage rolls are banned at Bradford primary school

Steve Fryer, 52 :

“It’s my job as a parent to decide what my child eats, not the school’s. The school won’t even compromise and allow us to send sausage rolls once or twice a week. I’m furious.”

“One-in-five Reception children in Bradford are overweight or obese.”



Council bingo:

Bradford
Sausage rolls
Pork pies
dry crisp sandwich
Obese




Bradford

Given the ethnic demographic of Bradford I'm amazed that pork pies and sausage rolls ever crossed the city border!

(the pork pie in the Guardian piece looks wonderful...)
