Why is hand luggage only council?
I went to Warsaw recently, to celebrate an ex’s birthday, out Friday, back Monday, I took 3 shirts, 3 pairs of underpants, 4 pairs of socks, another pair of shoes, two pair of trousers in addition to the chinos I wore to travel in, plus toiletries.
Only needed hand luggage, and it fitted neatly in an overhead locker.
Arriving at 09.00 for a 10.15 flight out of Heathrow, was a shade too early for me to have a vodka, but I managed a couple on board, drinking before 11.00 a.m. is council as I see it.

Only three pairs of skiddies Frank? Shocking. (Unless you turn them inside out).

Have no fear nonseq, seasoned visitor to Warszawa Frank, knows that in the event of accident(s), Vitkac Department Store on Bracka Street in the centre is open until 9.00 p.m.

Really, whats wrong with them, they just look like walking shoes, now if he had a big pair of squeaky clean Nikes then I may think differently.

Agree on the Nikes. Not a fan on the walking shoes personally as someone said 'dad' shoes.

Oh yeahh definitely; walking shoes should only be worn when out walking but they most certainly aren't "mid life crisis"

Walking shoes are either, depending on the situation;
- whilst on a mountain, i am a walker and therefore an active man who needs comfortable shoes to cover many miles
- anywhere else, i am an absolute melt and my wife picked these shoes for me

One small step (no pun intended) away from this misery:

Hate those things! - The summer clown-shoe.

Only takes a small pointy stone to flick up and under your foot and it becomes a walking torture device.. let alone the trip hazard of the front bumper folding under itself whilst leaving your toes exposed

Sliders are ultra council. Sandals and socks everyone took the piss out of and now its a fashion thing.

Sliders?
On your feet?
Every day’s a school day I guess, the sliders that I know, are small filled rolls in a U.S. diner.

Not the only that's no idea what a slider is in terms of footwear

It is a glorified flip flop.

Now I've taken the piss, would it be ok if I PM re: some matters of a Gibraltarian nature please?

Trying to get someone to bring you back some cheap duty free booze. Council.

More likely a few ks of Moroccan.

Too late; I'm already here.

Sliders & socks with a track suit seems to be the new attire d'weekend = uber council

Whenever I see someone in the supermarket wearing the full council uniform I always give them some credit for at least not being in their pyjamas.

I've got a pair of them. I don't like the bit that goes between your toes.

Sports Direct now own them, ruined a good brand. But defo from the house of the giant mug. Extra C points for them.

Sports Direct have cheapened into oblivion some great brands and stores, Kangol, Lillywhites, Karrimor etc.

I don't know whether these companies would have survived without being bought out.

Don't know the circumstances. One year I have a cracking pair of Karrimor KSB, year later bought what I thought were the same boots and they fell apart inside a few months. That was the change over, I didn't know.

Local shopping outlet has a Greggs and Sports Direct next door to each other.

Posting on PH - council.

Agreed

Fluffy slipper slider type footwear, lips like a duck and massive slug like eyebrows.
The complete council look.

On the subject of the stupid eyebrows and absolutely awful lip filler - does this phenomenon exist anywhere but the UK - it looks fking awful. Do any blokes out there find the duck pout attractive?

I keep seeing these lasses on FB who are friends of friends or even my friends. It’s interesting to look back in their profile pics (not in a stalker-like manner!) til you find them pre-lip filler; usually really pretty girls and they have just ruined their faces.

I’ll take this example who is a friend on FB, really really nice - and not council - girl. Very delicate features. And she’s had this done (cropped from full pic) -



Wtf? Why?!?!!

[Whistle]

I was recently on a flight with jet2 and one of the air hostesses had stupid massive duck lips, she was very attractive apart from the lips.

Is that lip filler permanent?

I think so - Mrs DS and I got addicted to this show about fixing cocked-up plastic surgery called “Botched” and they quite often had to sort lip filler - often they inject fat!
