The posh one are a pain in the arse - I can cope with chavs , stinking of skunk and bumbling about the place, but the utter arrogance of the posh kids does ones cake in.


end of term last year, there were about 5 of them at 11PM in the 7-11, sneering at the harrassed assistant and filling their pockets with choc bars when he wasnt looking, then going outside and giving them to their mates


I was tempted to call the filth and teach these posh scummers a lesson - a conviction for theft may predujice their likely glittering career in the city/ at the bar etc etc - but I thought that was a bit vindictive of me, so I informed the shop owner istead, who just asked them to get out


they stood outside laughed at him


ggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


I will ensure the next time I see them doing this, they get taken off by the pigs and done

all this talk of chavs and posh kids assumes we live in a predictable world, them over there and them over there but things ain't like that.


a new cultural hybrid is out there, boring stoned posh chavs are the new ED demographic. they can be anyone, poor kids who feel like the new aristos, posh coz they posses some trappings of wealth and a willingness dominate by violence. then there's posh kids who dress like all shabby and are willing to rob from anywhere.


hmmm. not sure the later exists. anyone?

"A good friend of mine who works with the Police Services once told me far from being homophobic, the services adore the gay and lesbian community. That's because they tend to 'party' inside, take drugs/drink that make them loved up instead of anti-social, and don't look for trouble. He added the new GBH phenomenon requiring ambulances is changing that, to be fair."


"It makes one wonder what the situation is in Vauxhall of a weekend evening. It has certainly 'come up' (no pun intended). Is there a similar clash to LL and Blackheath?"


Translation:


I don't know any gays or lesbians, but some random guy who allegedly works for the police told that they don't get any trouble with the gays and lesbians, even though they all go out clubbing every week to party inside, drunk, take drugs and get loved up. He said that this is changing though, because they're all now taking GBH, getting ill and being hauled away in ambulances. They're all taking it in Vauxhall on weekends, where they've livened up (nervous giggle), and gentrified a previously blighted area with all their pink pounds and flamboyant pubs and clubs, etc.


The locals don't like them.

'flamboyant pubs'?!


I expect 'the locals' said (and still say) pretty much the same things about Brick Lane, Golders Green.. but they're also the bits that go into making a big city what it is.


Just for clarification (for the kids) the drug(s) you speak of are GHB (not GBH) and GBL.

Hey Bob. Less time comparing sizes with AlanD in the showers and you might have seen I made that point about 5,4535634,3543 posts ago.


Not that it matters in the slightest.


Frisco - I've read your post a couple of times and I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

    • Hello,  I feel as though our apartment is damp. I would like to borrow a dehumidifier to ascertain whether it is or not. Does anyone have a dehumidifier that I could borrow for a week?  thank you,    Brigid
    • Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!
    • These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January. 
    • Two subjects here.  Xmas cards,  We receive and send less of them.  One reason is that the cost of postage - although interestingly not as much as I thought say compared to 10 years ago (a little more than inflation).  Fun fact when inflation was double digits in the 70s cost of postage almost doubled in one year.  Postage is not a good indication of general inflation fluctuating a fair bit.  The huge rise in international postage that for a 20g Christmas card to Europe (no longer a 20g price, now have to do up to 100g), or a cheapskate 10g card to the 'States (again have to go up to the 100g price) , both around a quid in 2015, and now has more than doubled in real terms.  Cards exchanged with the US last year were arriving in the New Year.  Funnily enough they came much quicker this year.  So all my cards abroad were by email this year. The other reason we send less cards is that it was once a good opportunity to keep in touch with news.  I still personalise many cards with a news and for some a letter, and am a bit grumpy when I get a single line back,  Or worse a round robin about their perfect lives and families.  But most of us now communicate I expect primarily by WhatApp, email, FB etc.  No need for lightweight airmail envelope and paper in one.    The other subject is the mail as a whole. Privitisation appears to have done it no favours and the opening up of competition with restrictions on competing for parcel post with the new entrants.  Clearly unless you do special delivery there is a good chance that first class will not be delivered in a day as was expected in the past.   Should we have kept a public owned service subsidised by the tax payer?  You could also question how much lead on innovation was lost following the hiving off of the national telecommunications and mail network.
