A bit council (Vol 4)

In a break with thread tradition, I'd like to present something that, surprisingly, turned out not to be council.

Today I went to a traditional, English seaside town. They all seem to have become sink holes for long-term unemployed and the dregs of the day-tripper market. But not here.

The seafront was busy; the sandy part was very crowded and the pebbly bit slightly more relaxed. But there were no scumbags, no 'fightong dogs', and barely a tattoo anywhere. The latter, I found quite astonishing, in spite of the full range of age groups in balanced representation.

Full marks for a pleasant day to Lyme Regis!

If you didn’t think it was council, there can only be one answer... you are council therefore didn’t notice the councilness of the place.

My OH was chatting to work colleagues last week and one of them mentioned it was his missus' birthday at the weekend.

"What present are you getting her?" he was asked

"A tattoo" he replied.

Oddly enough, my OH works for the err.. council ..........

Yup, you need two kitchens with no aga on show in the one guests see to be truly downtown Abby.

And they'll be able to listen to the rhythm of a gentle Bossa nova!

Is this the Facebook equivalent of Brighthouse?

Going by that Facebook page Grey is very council, why is everything grey? Grey carpets, grey laminate flooring, grey emulsion on the walls, grey sofa, even the obligatory "LOVE" sign on the wall is grey/sliver.

Because it's "hinch" - innit....

No; super-cool.

I could probably manage this in my garden, just to annoy the neighbours, and the wife.

Calling any kawasaki bike a "ninja" is top council for me. I can't bring myself to do it.

It could be worse though, like in USA where pretty much every Kawasaki has a ninja sticker on it, and they all seem to call every bike a "ninja ###".

I know it's not the same plane, but maybe he saved up his pepsi tokens?

That's remarkable..not sure I'd call it council as its not an old sofa and a rusting bike frame though...

I do pity the family though, what on earth are they going to do with all that once he dies, call the local pawnbroker?!

He simply asked the various government departments, responsible for their particular ‘bone yards’ if he could purchase them, I believe. Some came from the big U.S. government military aircraft boneyard in Arizona.

Council picnic area at Skegness. Don't worry about the rubbish kids, the council will clear it up for us, after all we pay our concil tax.

They've done it for ages; when it's hot use Farenheight (sounds hotter), when it's cold they use Celsius (sounds colder)!!
