I bloody love a good night out, but I am really not a fan of being rinsed. I know it's London prices and whatever, but the closest pub to me is £6.70 for a pint that isn't Carling, and something nuts like £8 for a double voddy. Couple that with a pack of cigs (£15) and maybe a cheeky little kebab at the end of the night (£10) and you're looking at an easy £75 - £100 for one fun night.
It's rough, because I really do love to socialise. Nowadays I don't drink or smoke for the first half of the year because they're too expensive as habits. If I want to go out in the evening to wind down after work and catch up with friends, I don't want to pay £20 to sit in the pub for an hour or two and then go home - but I can't reasonably afford to do much more than that -- so sod the whole thing.
Jesus, this is still going? I think I'd quite like to see a version that isn't broadcast, and where the unsuccessful candidates get thrown into a woodchipper. Along with the successful ones.
I don't disagree with you, and I'd find it hard to comment on exactly how the digital marketing arm of the BBC works when it comes to view counts and how it affects their content, cos I just don't know. I was just clarifying for you what I thought OP meant.
I do agree that you're not self-censoring by choosing to post things you think people will be interested in, though!
Is the new system "slip me a couple million quid and you can do whatever you want"? Because if it is, that's just the old system again
Yeah it's really unusual, I've heard nothing but horror stories about Evri, and obviously about Hermes before them! Hermes were terrible for me, but for some reason any parcel I have through Evri turns up on time, and the drivers have been relatively nice - both down in London, and up in the Midlands! I'm sorry you've had such a nightmare with them though, bad delivery services are absolutely infuriating!
Oh do one, you ponce
Jesus christ who cares?? Have they got nothing important to worry about??
Absolute scumbag. Tories tear the NHS to shreds, then blame the NHS for being torn to shreds.
It's a shame that he and his family do not have to rely on the NHS for their medical care, or he might be a bit more careful with our NHS.
Glad there's literally nothing more important that our dickhead politician class could be working on 👍
