    The Butlins Xmas weekend at Bognor is fantastic value, good fun with lots to do for the kids, plus by the time they hit the evening show (which has got X Factor stars and a guest appearance by some people from Towie) they'll be to knackered to run around so I can have a couple of beers with some nice geezers from Essex.

    Sorted.

    Plus the in-laws are going away to New Zealand for 6 weeks. Supposed to be 'back packing it'. He came back from the travel agent yesterday, he'd paid £24000 for 6 weeks. Their backpacking / flights are all busness class, plus 5 star hotels. Fooking backpacking my arse.
    and i thought going to the inlaws was bad enough

        Wandsworth, Christmas, Toast Rack, Aygo and Mazda 6 outside, tacky shed in the garden, fill yer boots!

        I seem to be quite a hit!

        Funny that. I posted this on the same forum:

        North East, Christmas, new Build, knackered Peugeot people carrier with blacked out windows and sticker saying "My other car's a BMW" outside, tiny sliver of garden.

        I got no hits.

                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                    Just saying like.

                    where there's chaos, there's cash !

                    I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!
