I am at Butlins, Skegness this week getting my yearly dose of council.

Lots of leggins
Not sure if this has been mentioned as council attire before but wearing jackets/hoodies when the sun it out? A lot of that going on.

Best name I have heard so far is Indy-lee? Indielee? Inde-leigh?
Maybe it is underlay?

I'm wondering, Woodrow, Matchbrough or Church Hill?
Is that the kids name or where he comes from ?

The former USSR states definitely have some 'appeals' in terms of the feminine form.

My theory is that it is genetic selection. Driven by the very low ratio of men to women in former Soviet states.



So. Men can be picky, women 'can't'. Men, being wonderfully fallible chaps like we are, pick the fitties. They then pass on their genes.

I have a similar theory regarding the seemingly much higher than average 'boob to waist ratio' of a certain culture of caravan utilising nomadic travellers, who engage in a practice of essentially grabbing a fitty and making off with them.

Because huge norks are clearly desirable to the men of that culture, those are the women who are grabbed, and therefore the positive selection for massive badongas with tiny waists continues to self reinforce.
And getting them done at a plastic surgeon

Surely both valid as whilst accepted as a noun, it's also an accronym.

You wouldn't say 'an Sports Utility Vehicle'.
Inability to spell acronym, council.

Especially as its only a 3 letter word. For sure it won't be Zaccharia or Zachary.

Three blokes around a car port smoking, and starting their awfully modified car up about 5 times in 4 hours, when there is a flat literally 5 steps away. This happens UNDER my flat, joys of living in dump parts of towns full of distribution centres

Have seen jeans and T shirts at funerals..

A step too far imho.
What, that's not normal? I've been to many a family funeral over the years where cousins turn up in such attire, or black tracksuits and black trainers (respectful innit). Two cousins have been murdered in the last 2 or 3 years (knives and gangs), one of which holds the title of 2021's first murder victim within the early hours of New Year's Day when his girlfriend stabbed him in a drunken episode. 6 kids in the house at the time as well from what I remember, and the rest of the tribe were outside the Crown Court with t-shirts made up reading '#Justice4[cousin's name]' alongside a charming picture of him. He'd not long got out of prison for armed robbery, and prior to that was doing bird for stabbing someone else, so quite sadly poetic that his life was ended in the same way.

Tip of the iceberg, and I could probably win this thread with some of the stories and things I've seen back in Dagenham laugh

I moved away from Dagenham as soon as I possibly could, but something inside me still enjoys going back and seeing such people, and seeing the sights, sounds and smells of 'Nham
When my aunt died, her only 20 something grandson turned up to the funeral in jeans, open-necked shirt, leather jacket and trainers. My cousin (the mother) must have seen the looks he was getting and weakly blurted out "it's what he's comfortable wearing" by way of explanation.
Overindulging your children - council.
I wear the same next t-shirts and the same Craghopper shorts all year round, I just keep buying them and chucking(the wife does) old ones out, some people may call me a tramp/weirdo/pauper etc, I prefer to spend my not hard earned on Festool toolssmile BUT if I have to go to Funeral I wear a suit.. the last Funeral I went to some lad turned up in a very very once may have been white t-shirt and a pair of old jogging bottoms and old filthy trainers.. he was chain smoking before and after so had a few quid to burn, just not to clothe himself correctly for the occasion.

Former sovbloc has a female>>>male ratio because the men disproportionately drink, smoke and industrial accident themselves into an early grave.

Who’s to say what the correct attire ought to be for funerals? Why should some deem it necessary to wear black or dark suits? It’s a hangover from the stuffy Victorian era that we as a society is slowly moving on from. My Irish Catholic family in Ireland wear their everyday clothes to funerals. Those that have emigrated to the US or the UK will invariably wear the dark suits.

Society standards dictated that I wore dark suits previously until the last funeral I went to when I decided to wear what I wanted, which was tan chinos, shoes and a white shirt. I didn’t give a toss what others thought. Was I out of place? Yes! Did it show a lack of respect to the deceased? I don’t think so.

I spent a few months working in Moscow a few years back. The 'average' Russian lady was equivalent to a very fit lady over here and we reckoned it was down to the diet which mainly seemed to consist mainly of cabbage and pork, and them walking everywhere!

Anyways, even the normal office working girls were exceptionally well proportioned. smile

Only if they're in the sea (unless it's the Med).
Is is a beach if it's a lake ? More of a bank.

There’s a picture somewhere on the Internet of a young man attending the funeral of his best mate in a lime green dress.
When they got posted somewhere hot, they agreed that if either bought it, the other would attend in a dress.

The poor guy is in bits and being comforted by the father of the deceased.

I don’t give a fk what you wear.
