Watching Father Ted tonight, my wife said..."Father Ted - I don't get it."


Playing golf a couple of weeks ago a guy said to me...."Mrs Brown's Boys - I just don't get it" - I thought, what a twat.


I can't really make this type of remark about my wife's lack of respect for Father Ted though - what should I do? There is no future if we can't reconcile this issue. Help.

I don't like poker? first I knew - love poker but rarely comes into my life.


Double irony...my investion of "Mrs ????" doesn't really exist, as in she walked from the money - as women aren't greedy like men. I'd guess GG plays poker with the main aim being for fun not money, happy to be corrected by the GG.

Maybe she doubled the ?1 you gave her and wanted a Coke - job done.

I'm with her


On my Vegas honeymoon, I was asked why I wasn't playing "not my cup of tea really, bit boring" and I was up on my betting money too.


"Maybe you'd be better off away from the table" said the security guy, taking my drink, leading me elsewhere.


Seeing a Philippino lady (dead in the eyes) play two slots at the same time, with a a bucket of coins propped on a seat for each one, just about finished me off. (as did the swim up poker/roulette table in the pool, as did the fibreglass trees)


Yeah yeah - I get that "for that moment when i'm deciding where I place my money, i'm in control of what i'm doing" thing - but boring as hell, even worse hearing about it.


Meh - with added Meh !


Father Ted is genius tho - poor you Mic.

Oh dear mic mac, how could you have gotten this far? You even went on holiday to Vagas with this woman.


Does she understand the "this cow small, that cow far away scenario"?


Completely with her on the Mrs Browns boys tho - I am of the ginger persuasion and from that neck of the woods, so I can say with total authority it is utter sh*te.


Go for anulment, I am sure there must be a clause that covers "the missus doesn't get Father Ted".

    • Another great job from Leon - sorted a consumer unit and EICR for me last minute. Highly recommend 
    • Admin, please move this if it's in the wrong section. Can anybody recommend a reasonably local dietician (or possibly nutritionist? Not sure what the difference is). My GP has suggested I see a dietician, but there isn't one attached to the practice. I have googled, but it's very hard to tell what people may be like from an online description, and I want somebody who is properly qualified. Alternatively, please PM me if you know of people I should avoid! Thanks x
    • A vet might be able to trace its owners if it's chipped. Also I believe twb who posts on here has a mobile scanner. Poor cat.
    • If you look at the application linked to in the OP, you'll see it's a Licensing Act 2003 one, in this case for the purposes of sale by retail of alcohol and for the provision of late night refreshment: "TAKEAWAY COFFEE/ HOT SNACKS 2300-0100". IF the shop counts as a Hot Food Takeaway, then section P48 of the Southwark Plan https://www.southwark.gov.uk/sites/default/files/2024-09/Southwark Plan 2022 reduced 1.pdf , which appears to be the latest one linked to on Southwark's site, will I presume be applied in any  planning application (Is there one?). It says: "New hot food takeaways will only be permitted where: ..... 3. The proposed location is further than 400 metres from any existing or proposed primary or secondary school’s boundary; ....." It incorporates  policy laid down in the National Planning Policy Framework, and thence the London Plan.  Over the years KFC, and others, have taken a  number of appeals against local planning authority decisions on Takeaways to the Planning Inspectorate.  Some have been allowed.  KFCs 'commentary on evidence contained in London Plan Topic Paper: Hot Food Takeaways', https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/nlp_ad_91.pdf may be of interest to some. I'm guessing it's referring to https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/london_plan_topic_paper_on_hot_food_takeaways.pdf of 2018, but haven't yet checked.
