Six30 Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Think I've found the winner of bat-shit crazy politics. Behold the manifesto of an Independent candidate in Stoke!https://abolishmcrm.com/party-constitution-and-manifesto/Great - another embarrassment from my home town, as if Robbie Williams and the captain of the Titanic weren't enough.Still, she may be on to something with the disabled parking spaces. Every supermarket I go to has ten times more disabled spaces than parent and child spaces. Is that really how they see their customer demographic? You forgot the football team... and what's up with Robbie Williams Quote

What about my home town?It's so bad that refugees want to be returned to the war zones they escaped from! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/09/27/refugee-pleads-to-be-moved-out-of-swansea-because-bad-people-bur/ Quote
MR_W Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Got on till I reached the first footing part of the thread then skipped the rest. My dad's side of the family comes from Durham/Sunderland so we know and do first footing. For my family it needs to be a female though as whenever it's done the traditional way with a male, a male in the family dies.Missus was pissed off at new years being forced out before midnight to walk back in once it had passed. But I only have my dad and 2 uncles above me and I am not massively superstitious but I'm not testing that one.No one down south knows of it though so I stand out down here as do my parents. Quote

Sorry Six.. that was probably my fault; about three pages back I was talking about the old Northumbrian/Scottish tradition of First Footing. I think I was also responsible for the entire Thatcher thread after mentioning me dad's NCB kneepads. Somehow the mention of dad's NCB kneepads instigated discussion about Thatcher. I seem to be a bit of an unintentional troublemaker round these parts... my apologies Quote
