Omg. Yes! bleeping hate it!I hate clothes shopping.I could not think of anything worse than traipsing around shops, trying on a million and one garments in minging, stinky, stuffy changing rooms
and then having to queue for ages to pay. Also people are twats and it makes the whole thing 10x worse.
My partner has done the same in the gym.
Whereas a normal adult would admit and just say āIām being a c**tāOr when someone says something along the lines ofā¦ āthe moon is aligning with my zodiac star sign, it must be Mercury retrograde because I cannot control my emotionsā¦ā
Hey thatās four things we agree on!
And simon Hooper ( father of daughters) ! Come to his thread in families to see how he talked about keeping his young daughterās milk bottle in between his crotch to keep it warm.
Running away with the circus is the stuff you read about in story books. What did your parents say.I had a outfit like this in the early 70s I wore it to the circus. I thought I looked the bollocks but probably looked like one of the clowns I was only about 12/13 though.
When the circus left town, so did my sister, her and her friend run away with them. become acrobats on horses for a year or so, then came home again.
I had forgotten about that
I walk out of places if the music is too loud. I'm hearing impaired and would like to actually hear the person serving me talk.
specially as they now start playing it early november..
Yep it's dreadful. Worked as waitress when I was a student and dreaded when Christmas season rolled around. The same playlist of songs every single evening, repeated over and over. Grim.
At reading festival this weekend tents were set on fire and people (children) left early because they were scared. At Leeds festival a 16 year old boy died. Nobodyās calling to cancel those though?
Did anyone say nottinghill carnival needs to be cancelled though? It was said it needs to be moved away from residential area and into a more secure environment eg like a festival style where endless properties and businesses donāt get damaged, in a field the chances of major damage is less risky
Thatās not the point of Notting Hill carnival though. The carnival and where it is held is a very important significant part of black history, but letās just forget that cos people donāt like it.
Nottinghill carnival has completely outgrown the area itās held in. If the organisers wish to hold a carnival on that scale, with that many people in attendance, over multiple days they either need to pay for and organise sufficient private security cover to work alongside the police and provide a comprehensive clean up operation afterwards or they limit the numbers and have it as a 1 day event that runs until the early evening. Either that or it is moved off site to a non residential location where thereās the area and appropriate services/facilities to hold a festival of that size. Itās got nothing to do with race, nothing to do with whether people like it or not, itās just simple logistical issues that make it unsuitable in its current format.
It used to be two days, now itās three, due to the volume of people who attend. Moving it from Notting Hill defeats the point of the carnival. Itās a carnival, not a festival held in a park with bands. People who actually attend to find it unsuitable itās just all you people seeing it on tv moaning cos you hate to see people have enjoyment.
You are deliberately missing the point and trying to turn it into a race issue. What canāt you understand - THE CARNIVAL IS TOO BIG TO BE HELD IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA! IT IS TOO DIFFICULT TO POLICE, CAUSES TOO MUCH DAMAGE TO THE AREA WHERE PEOPLE ACTUALLY LIVE & WORK, AND IS NO LONGER SUITABLE TO BE HELD IN THE WAY IT HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN HELD.
