The council would be better off fixing the giant pothole in the road outside my house. God I am grumpy today.
Things are slipping badly though. I went into a Tesco yesterday and there was nothing to wipe the trolly handles with. A staff member on customer service just stared when informed of the situation. Not the first shop I have come across with cleaning supplies empty.
Will the pond life who terrorise people with fireworks and bonfires in social housing estates be going on line??
You know this thing of locking, cancelling, postponing etc…
Don’t mention it and nobody will give a toss. If its spread around the media then the lower IQd people pick up on it and hold a protest.
@RJ: Ah yes, the great unwashed proletariat must be kept in the dark.
To those that interfere or cause hindrance to the emergency services, give them a good blast of high pressure water. Then blast them with p;ss
@Martin Crowe: lol
