Now I think of it, my friends already know I live here, so when on those days I tell them my location, they do that gripping my upper arms while shaking them, looking me in the eye and saying "Yes I know, it's OK. It's OK" thing that they do.

Comforting so it is.

My colleagues though.

DON'T YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT MY COLLEAGUES. WHO GAVE YOU PERMISSION? WHO PUT YOU IN CHARGE?? EH??


I actually like to keep work and private life seperate, actually. If it's all the same to you.

A few months back a comedy show on radio 4 featured a stand up who was doing a schtick based around his eastend cockerney upbringing, but then moved on to his new girlfriend: "she's proper middle class- lives in East Dulwich, been skiing, everything..."


That said, my Cardiff City-supporting cousins know I live in Millwall territory and have the same attitude as Quids' mates.

totally that... Then I go on to explain how lovely it is in ED but eyes generally glaze over at this point..

When people ask me how I get by without the tube I just laugh uncontrollably. Why the f**k would I want to spend hours of my summer in a packed, dirty, sweaty sardine can controlled by Bob Crow and his bunch of merry arseh*les? Viva South East London...

Probably the same way the majority of the population of the UK manage to get by without the Tube. Guess they uses buses, trains, taxis and stuff.

    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.
