Ahh right i see. So similar to England then!It’s a bit of a joke in North Wales that we get neglected in favor of South Wales for pretty much everything.

I was ignoring you!What do you mean? No one said it, I was joking.
Yes, I suppose so!Ahh right i see. So similar to England then!
I bet Cardiff gets it before Swansea, Newport, Port Talbot etc
However the Welsh government puts the entire country under the same restrictions, ie our recent lockdown.I suppose it's the South that's putting the Covid figures up ( according to mil on zoom every.single.week ) but I'd have thought they would have done it by age.
Yes mil was really cheesed off about that. She said there was an initial 5 mile travel restriction, but as most of Wales is rural, she'd still be in the middle of nowhere if she travelled for 5 miles in any directionHowever the Welsh government puts the entire country under the same restrictions, ie our recent lockdown.
Ask your delivery robot to get you some solpadeine hen [or the local equivalent]. Wi toothache whopper pain are the only resource! [unless there's some shocking gossip dropping the night, SO SHOCKING you forget all about it]Finally caught up. Please keep the tea coming. I've got agonising toothache and predict another night of no sleep tonight.
Just waiting on a delivery robot to bring me soup, as I can't eat anything solid.
I’m sorry I had to laugh at this.Yes mil was really cheesed off about that. She said there was an initial 5 mile travel restriction, but as most of Wales is rural, she'd still be in the middle of nowhere if she travelled for 5 miles in any direction
Wales is weird (as if you didn’t already know). North and south are so separate- I’m in the south and feel no affiliation with the north at all, I feel it’s a different country. Also the difference in rural and urban very marked.Yes mil was really cheesed off about that.

See: North of England.It’s a bit of a joke in North Wales that we get neglected in favor of South Wales for pretty much everything.
Yes, there’s a very similar feeling North/South divide in Wales too. Linguistically different, both in terms of the percentage of people who speak Welsh rather English as first language than in the North vs South and also the Welsh spoken isn’t exactly the same. Different words for lots of things. Culturally they’re really quite different places.Ahh right i see. So similar to England then!
Militant Black Guy and the Annoying Devil were funny, too.I used to like Balls of Steel! Especially the girl who would flirt with other women's boyfriends.
They don't deliver medication. But I'll check that out tomorrow thank you.Ask your delivery robot to get you some solpadeine hen [or the local equivalent]. Wi toothache whopper pain are the only resource! [unless there's some shocking gossip dropping the night, SO SHOCKING you forget all about it]
Neg and his Urban Sports and Big Gay Following cracked me up. "Fancy a bum?"Militant Black Guy and the Annoying Devil were funny, too.
Thaila Zucchi, I think her name was.I used to like Balls of Steel! Especially the girl who would flirt with other women's boyfriends.
AKA "The Bunny Boiler".Thaila Zucchi, I think her name was.
I’m nowhere near that, perhaps the Russian bots don’t like the look of me.Thank
Thank god someone else hates the cremation ads. We switch over to another channel as soon as they come on = probably cos we are both over 70
He made Christine Lampard sort through M&Ms when she was a runner on a show! What a prat.I posted a few pages back about "J" / Jason Brown from 5ive ...
I just sense that he saw or experienced something really awful in his time in the spotlight. You don't often find guys like this completely turn their backs on the glitz and glamour as he did. He has spoken about depression; maybe that was it. But he's also had more recent chances to make a comeback with the band and has turned those down.
Ritchie Neville was married for a short time which ended badly ... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowb...ts-secret-marriage-5ives-Ritchie-Neville.html
I remember Abz came here to NZ a while back to do something ... I can't for the life of me remember what ... but he did a whole lot of TV and radio interviews and seemed really nice.

Another NZ story: Adam Rickett (ex-Coronation Street) came to live here for a while and played a central role in "Shortland Street" (NZ soap). He didn't stay long, and while he was here this happened: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertai...-over-shoplifting/ARVJQRTEIFZDKFMQGTUYHKFMMY/
A friend who worked as an extra on "Shortland Street" at the time had quite a few stories to tell about the cast - very few of them were good! (For relative nobodies they sure did have huge egos).
He wants to be "abrupt/funny" like his idol Brian Turner, but Brian Turner comes across as "nice funny but no nonsense" James attempts just comes across like a stilted @rseNot surprised James Martin is a t*at. Always comes across that way on TV. I think he went in a strop on his IG because there was technical issues with his cookalong? I remember people complaining about it. He thinks being from Yorkshire, he can get away with some of his mannerisms (I say this subjectively being from Yorkshire where we’re quite no nonsense ) when really he’s just a bellend.
Ooh, one of the Slaters maybe?To move us back in a Celeb direction (but not minding the vaccine chat) I can confirm that my EE schoolmate was not Lorna Fitzgerald. I’m only not naming her to preserve some feeble anonymity of my own but she was a famous sister on it.
