Thanks Shuvi, at least you’ve confirmed ben5575’s theory, I was just about to ask if I was okay when I flew 1st Class on Lufthansa, and Air France in the past, plus Connoisseur Class on United Airlines, but a little light came on in my brain, and I thought, ‘will I never learn?’ banghead
Bragging about naff airlines and the few times you got upgraded, council.

That is a piece of art, from 5 years ago.

Ever since then it's been trotted out on Facebook selling pages every so often.

I don't t know if this is council or just an example of living in a big city.

I'm in a well known coffee chain in a post- industrial area of a northern city at getting on for 9AM.

Its not busy and the customers are in the main people like me, in this area from somewhere else because of work. it's just a guess but I think it's an accurate assumption.

You need to ask for a key to go to the loo and judging by the signs it is because the local scummers have been using it to st, piss, shoot up or Pro-create in.

There's a guy slumped at a table. Barely conscious. Staff are being very kind and are trying to coax him out of the place with offers of a hot drink and a biscuit if he goes. One presumes this is to head off the possibility of an altercation.

I can't see this area ever getting help.

The few round here who vote, vote Labour. There's no doubt that Labour will always have a safe seat here.

There is no incentive for Labour to help this area.

The Tories will never ever win here. So equally there is no incentive to change things.

What an utterly God forsaken hell hole this place is.

UPDATE

Two G4S staff just removed the semi conscious man. Polite and firm. An indication of council? Having to employ security in a coffee shop. Still it means one less job for the overstretched police.

Raised over £25k for charity last year - Not council.

As a result of their hard work, Tony and Wendy were nominated to attend a garden party at Buckingham Palace in June.
Tony said:
We met Charles and Camilla but the Queen wasn't there on that day, she probably stopped in watching Jeremy Kyle.
Sounds like someone's got their tongue firmly in their cheek with the local rag.

Security guard in your corner shop: Council

I moved from an affluent area to a less affluent area and my local council tesco gained a security guard, I thought blimey its rough here

Fast forward 2 months later the posh tesco now has one as well as it was endlessly targeted by kids nicking booze

The security chaps are the nicest and friendlies blokes you could meet and could teach a thing or two to most customer facing roles on how to be polite and friendly!

Its proper council where I live, saw a bloke take his Daughter down the park, smoke in her face on walking home he stopped to take a piss in a church doorway, in front of his daughter and me and mine . I told him to set a better example and he challenged me to a fight , I just laughed as he was so fat and out of breath he was struggling to walk let alone punch. Ironically my street is fairly pleasant with nice neighbors.

we get sent a village newsletter every month.

someone wrote a poem about how lovely the village shop is and how lovely its owners are. it was published. It was utterly sickly drivel.

I can only assume you live bordering one of my estates !!! security guard indeed at the shop !


I jest of course, I often shop at Aldi and I notice they stick security on the doors around teatime.

Sorry, mate, but initiating confrontational situations is the preserve of council!

Getting the bus about all the time - Very council.
Getting the bus to save for a house in London and a C4S in spring - Less council.
Only joking, I get the bus so I can drink more.
Not really, it's a duplex.

Totally agree but I couldn’t have walked past with my little girl and not have said something either - it’s just not right and the example to my child of challenging what’s not right is more important (IMHO)
