I made my annual trip to a horse racing meeting this weekend.

I was in the 'premium' enclosure, which has a dress code.

Super Council. I don't think I saw anyone 'well dressed' it was all lads in untucked shirts and fashionable (?) half mast trousers with the odd 'Peaky Blinders' style hat. Lots of sturdy gals with tatoos in skimpy summer dresses. Plenty of overpriced lager being swilled.

It was excellent.

Some people! What are the odds of that happening?

According to Pulp...

[i]And dance and drink and screw
Because there's nothing else to do.[/i]

Although judging by the size of councilista these days dancing has fallen out of favour.

That's only been the case for at least 30 years (longer?)

"So much so, that Captain Johannes Tysse took the opportunity to order a boat load for the ship’s 700 passengers who are visiting as part of a 10-day culinary and cultural tour of Northern Europe."

That's a bloody depressing representation of our island.

In response to a 1 start review about the prawns being too small:

"Am not sure how we traumatised you were you hoping to achieve supernatural powers after eating the Prawns ? Like Popeye does after he devourers a tin of spinach !"

It reads like two wanted to share a £3.50 menu.

A bit on the dear side if you ask me. £3 is much more like it

waiting in line at my local off license the scruffy looking person ahead of me isn't buying anything. In a very cockney accent they then say o rite mate have i got enough points on my loyalty for a packet ah rizla''

turns out they did, so they 'bought' that and left.

"waiting in line" instead of queuing, well you know...
