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".

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
