Is this a load of middle class toss?

[Old Greg]

What if you don't give a flying toss either way?

Then you don't fit into the snobbish 'old money' world view.

Oh, arse.

I really thought I did, too.

First class flying toss or economy flying toss? Makes all the difference to us middle classes.

You're not middle class if you can afford a first class toss.

I know you shouldn't. But sometimes it's nice to go back to the same place for a holiday.

They really just get right to the heart of the matter of there, don't they:

hopefully it actually cost £100 and she is spending the rest on hard drugs to help her cope with being married to a c....t.

Daughter is 5 next month. The wife(who doesn't work but think's that money is something that the cash point fairy just conjours up) has booked the local church hall.

4 hours at £15 per hour. OK. Sorted with that.

And hired a bouncy castle. £60. Fine with that

And booked a children entertainer and magician. £200 for two hours. WTF! £100 PER HOUR!!

And paid caterers to do the food £120!!!! WTF £120 for the a childrens ******* party!

£440 for a four hour childrens party!!! WTF!!!!

Is this excessive? She thinks that's what it should cost!

Why don't you learn some magic yourself? Can't be that hard to impress some 5 year olds.

You're crap, MF. Spotted within minutes.

Christ, you have to be pretty bloody bored to post on a board called ContractorUK, let alone organise a board raid from said board to Mumsnet.

Actually he's supposed to be quite good. Even the adults didn;t know how he was doing it.

I reckon a scary clown may have been funnier.

Why has this thread gained so much attention?

The bird organises the childrens parties and you pay the bills.

Simples!
