CB Saint Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 How about Has miltoroader actually started a thread that made it to the bottom of the indexable without being locked? When will bear publicly commit to the rest of the 50 shades trilogy? Why is tokyo ruining my Japanese education by not posting regular lessons? If only guy Fawkes was alive today. Discuss.

Tokyo-Saint Posted 6 November, 2012 Share Posted 6 November, 2012 What CB is saying is we should all go to the muppet show. CB, bletch almost killed off my lesson with a long Japanese folk story.

Carry on and I'll share some of the Japanese literature PMs we've exchanged. I don't mind you hiding your intellect under a Bearsy-shaped bushel. But don't make me out to look like some literature-obsessed tw*t. I can do that all by myself thank you very much. Right, I'm off to ruin your Learn Japanese (AKA spill something sticky over Hannah Minx) thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The court jester role has gone too; with dune and all his great jokes about Rhodesia and Gibraltar being "dead". Let's have some positions and nominations please.

pap Posted 8 November, 2012 Share Posted 8 November, 2012 Went to look at a house today. It's really nice; right next to the kids' school. Well within budget as I spend a load of time and money on transporting ms Pap et al up there. With the money we're currently spending on travel, bus passes, shopping trips, ra ra ra - I think we'd end up paying £125 more a month than we are right now; and the house is twice the size. So here's the problem. Bit of a scumbag at heart. I don't know anything about living in middle class areas. I grew up on the Flower Estates and although my current gaff is in a nice enough street, we've all got blue collar sensibilities. Or 'cos I'm in Liverpool, and the estate looks like a bit like an upmarket Brookside Close, should I just watch old episodes and style myself as a long-haired Max Farnham? Some do's or don'ts would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some do's or don'ts would be appreciated. Bring the area down to what you are used to by sitting on deck chairs in your filthy front garden during summer months with your family and friends wearing vests or football shirts. Hang a cross of St George out of one of the windows and have lots of empty beer cans filling up your bin. Always have at least one white good item on full view outside the front door and buy yourself a an M reg cavalier or mondeo and park it outside your house but never, ever use it. You'll be able to overlay your working class ideals onto your new lower middle class environment and be universally hated but secretly feared by your neighbours as the rough family down the road.

Live there for a year and follow in Max's footsteps Max Farnham and Jacqui Dixon sold their house to Jack Michaelson a drug dealer who terrorised the street until the other residents lynched him from the bedroom window.

This is top stuff, sir. I'd like to riff on your Ford Mondeo idea. That sort of number always look worse when the car has no engine, and demonstrably going nowhere, ever.

We're getting quite an ensemble. Do you think that the kids' inner-city sensibilities will easily make them the hardest on the estate?

You already have connections to the underworld in Southampton what with my and my Krew. I reckon you've got the makings of a nice little earner there. I'd position yourself more as a cross between Travis Bickle and Henry Hill, a kind of nice guy on the edge. People would think you are a wise guy and happy to pay you protection money but never cross you as they know you could f*ck them up on your own. And what with your UK wide wise guy connections and the council estate slum you have recreated on your new lower middle class estate youll fool the old bill into thinking you are unemployed scum when in reality you are a rich, connected wise guy mobster from one of Britains most notorious Krews.
