Hold On

Frank, how do you expect us to fully appreciate the intricacies of your story if you omit the vital detail of the house party's location (Street, Council and Town please)

And all the details... what was the bowl for the car keys like; which cabinet ministers, police chiefs and law lords were there, etc

Someone mentioned on here a few years ago a little girl called Yvonne starting school. Or Why-von-ee, as her mum insisted it was (correctly!!) pronounced.

We have a girl in one of our offices named Lauren, however she insists it is pronounced L'wren

Is her surname Hubbard ?

And does she identify as a pain in the arse ?

Frank only throws his car keys at his wife, not in the fruit bowl.

Why we need a no deal Brexit and we need it now, usually buy someone I went to school with whos main contribution at school was defecating in their pants.

This is an important example of one of The New Rules of Modern Britain:

• To avoid conceding an own-goal when calling Brexiteers thick, always ensure your SPAG is absolutely spot-bang-diddly-on.

I made the mistake of going in a John Smiths pub recently, and asked for my usual, a double vodka, ice, no fruit, and the guy reached for a bottle that looked unfamiliar.
I said, “Don’t you have Smirnoff, or something?”
He said, “This is a John Smiths pub, everything is John Smiths.”
I said, “Okay, just give me a single, straight up please.”
I paid for it, tried it, didn’t care for it, thanked him, and went out to seek another bar.
Colour me picky, but I’d rather pay £4 a shot for something I like, than £3 for something that I might not like.

Sam Smiths, not John Smiths.

I must admit, I got completely thrown when I went into the Bristol Sam Smiths for the first time - never realised that everything is their own brand. Makes for neat labels, but that's about it, it was all a bit meh.

Have always found their lagers to be pleasant enough, and at their prices amongst a sea of far more expensive London prices, more than acceptable. I must be council

Their bitter is fine as I recall, and as you say, very competitively priced.

Ok, you got me, I typed an extra "u", and not calling all Brexiteers thick, more a specific type, in this case an individual who is really quite unpleasant, opinionated and pretty racist, I do toy will blocking him but I think we shouldn't block out other opinions as we don't like them, even if they are fking mental.

17 and a bit million people aren't all thick, I don't profess to understand it, I just get a bit worried when I see this person spouting like they are the foremost political and economic mind in the western hemisphere, his enthusiasm for a No deal Brexit reminded me of an elderly incontinent dog getting all excited when told he is going to the vets...

It may turn out to be a good move, I just don't know, not sure anyone truly does, we havent done it before !

And sometimes I type things wrong !

In fact most of the time, I do endeavour to proof read but am easily distracted.

A young guy on our table at a wedding reception a few years ago introduced himself as 'Jon-a'; his place setting had it written down as Jonah. I always though it was pronounced as 'Joe-nah'.

Nothing wrong with anything from Sam Smiths. The problem is the owner being complete tt.

I just read that pronounciation out to my son Jac-O-bee and he said it was weird.

How remiss of me, apologies, Gervase Street, Peckham, the majority of guests, (save for Red and I of course), were exceptionally Council, and it was London, where else would I go?

You've obviously never tried their bourbon then. It's disgusting.

Like the Old Brewery Bitter though

What made you and ‘Red’ stand out from the other partygoers, Frank?

It never ceases to amaze me how incredibly dumb some people are on this site.

I’ve had coffee in a couple of Costas, it was okay, not remarkable, but okay.
I’ve only been in a Greggs to buy bread, (Rye Lane, Peckham), never thought of having coffee there.
I’d be a tad concerned about the taste if it’s cheaper than elsewhere, although cheaper is a good thing, BUT, when I drink alcohol, I only drink vodka, and the default brand is usually Smirnoff, which is fine, although I prefer Absolut, or Grey Goose.
I made the mistake of going in a John Smiths pub recently, and asked for my usual, a double vodka, ice, no fruit, and the guy reached for a bottle that looked unfamiliar.
I said, “Don’t you have Smirnoff, or something?”

Hate to be mean but fk me that's a boring story!

No, that’s in Leo Street, if you follow Street View along Gervase, you’ll see a van with U.K. Mail on it, next to an “Elderly People” sign, almost opposite the van is a street with a blue wheelie bin on the corner, it was at the end of that part of Gervase.
