    Yep. Speak to the landlord and get his take on it. Likewise, the pool team - how do the rest of them feel?

    That is frequently suggested on BBC Radios 2 and 4. If old farts started wearing hoodies, the kids will stop.

    That's a good one too.
    My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

      When I was a lad (and probably a bit of a git to be fair) we would pop into the pub we didn't like and put Terry Jacks "seasons in the sun" on the jukebox 5 times in a row then bugger off down the road.
      While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

        SY01,

        'Which depresses me even more, as it was a slightly younger version of this fookin dross that ruined my kids Halloween by stamping on out pumpkin and hurling a glass bottle at my wife and kids.
        '


        can you elaborate on that story, or is there an omnibus edition, apologies I missed the original screening, sounds fascinating though


        down to business though,

        where exactly do you live ?

        i think the only place to live in the uk is in quiet villages where there is no 'affordable housing'

        that my friend, is the solution to your problem

        Milan.

          'Affordable housing' is indeed a blight on society and a complete ban should be introduced as paragraph of the International Convention on Posh Persons' Rights. I'm glad to live in an area where houses are not very affordable at all and the council seems to excel in finding excuses (conservation, nature protection, fragile ecology etc) for not building more homes in the 'social rental' sector, even going to court to defend a local wetland, built using EU subsidies in the 1990s, in which some rare species of spider has been detected (only rare because nobody's bothered looking for it anywhere else, but sshhhh...) against housing development. The village is surrounded by land owned by senior members of two of NL's biggest political parties, including 2 Barons (yep, they stil count for something here) and one former PM. The mere thought of 'affordable housing' turns me into an elitist, environmentalist conservationist with a strong interest in protecting natural a archaeological sites. In other words, NIMBY.

          PS I am not being entirely sarcastic here.

              Have you noticed that most 'Democratic Republics' are very undemocratic tulipholes?

                quite Mich,


                simply put, if one decides to live amongst the peasants then one must accept the consequences

                  Have you tried talking to the landlord, if you're a regular can't you have a chat with him?

                  Alternatively, build a bar in your own house where nobody can victimise you. You could invite Wilmslow round, he seems to have a metaphorical "kick me" sign hanging over him too.

                    no no Doogh,

                    this is the blight of British Society, a generation have grown up untouchable and now we are seeing the consequences

                    this will only get worse

                    there is only one way to avoid this - as described above



                    Milan.

                      Have you thought about becoming a Superhero?

                      Get a spandex suit and find your power, try running through walls or jumping off a roof, pimp up the rover and turn the garage into a batcave.

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
