Plenty of black people think it's stupid as well. should we also listen to them? Who decides who has more right to be offended by a white person just singing along to a song that isn't a racist song?
You are an absolute hypocrit. Don’t talk for black people. Stay in your laneAs i said in a previous post I was portrayimg the view of those close to me who are of that culture.
It’s only a bit of proteinI have a rant right now. I was finishing off my delicious iced latte when I saw a fruit fly at the bottom. Tosser.
Me and my boyfriend and 2 friends agreed to go to London for a few days next week and one of the friends suggested we all get an Air bnb together. I was looking yesterday and found a really nice one in central London for £200 each for 3 nights, bargain if you ask me considering a hotel would cost that per night. The friend is now saying they’re thinking of just staying at their sisters who lives in an outer zones and will just travel in everyday to save money….considering it was their idea to go on the trip and their idea to get an air bnb why now say you want to save money? One of the other friends is now talking about how he needs it to be really cheap…it’s £200 in the capital city of the UK for 3 nights, how much cheaper do you want it? I looked at hostels for him and even they’re £60 a night staying with 9 other strangers.
I get people can have problems with money and especially at the moment, but why organise a trip and then complain about money once someone starts looking?
The first friend has been annoying us a bit anyway recently with his selfishness, we went on a day out and he drove all in all an hours round trip, some people drive further too and from work everyday and he charged us all £10 for petrol. I don’t mind paying petrol but basically telling us that an hours round trip cost £40 in petrol is just you lying to us and taking money off your friends. He did it again for what was about a 2 hours round trip, said it cost £60 pounds in petrol and charged us all £15. We were talking about it to a family member who told us the journey he charged us £60 for would have cost max about £15 to get there and back.
Urgh it’s one of those things where if I was reading my own post I’d say the same but we never do the right thing do we? We’ve all been friends for about 4/5 years. It’s one of the complications of uni friends now we’re moving in to our late 20s that individual choices regarding jobs means there’s a money disparity, but it’s all down to their poor decisions and inability to adapt to work, like one got sacked from a graduate scheme 3 months in for failing an exam miserably, he spent 3 years after uni trying to get a grad scheme to pay for his exams and then didn’t even revise for them properly once he got the opportunity. & it’s difficult to have sympathy for the money difference and for getting sacked when they had all the opportunities there to not be in this situation now.Think you need to drop your friend, he's clearly taking advantage of you all.
Hannah have you ever challenged him on it? He can't automatically expect you to make up for any income disparity. If you offer, fine, but doesn't sound like this is the case!Urgh it’s one of those things where if I was reading my own post I’d say the same but we never do the right thing do we?

If your friend wants to stay with his sister and travel in to London to hang out with you I don’t see why that’s a problem?? You & your boyfriend can stay in central london and your friend can come to meet you and then do whatever you were planning to do in London. Really don’t see why you’ve got an issue with that????Me and my boyfriend and 2 friends agreed to go to London for a few days next week and one of the friends suggested we all get an Air bnb together.

M and S seem to have increased lots of their cans by upto 15p - tomatoes and beans etc. I but them every couple of weeks and noticed it this week.Price increases. I know this is a common gripe rn but all the same. Rain has pissed down most of the week here so the other night I fancied a bowl of soup for dinner. I had a nice tin of M&S soup for 50p.
I'm not hungry tonight so I thought ooh i really enjoyed that soup I had a couple of nights ago. I'll grab another
65p
would that make the accommodations more expensive for the OP if there are less people to share the cost between?If your friend wants to stay with his sister and travel in to London to hang out with you I don’t see why that’s a problem??

Is there a reason why he seems to always be the designated driver? Do you drive/have a car yourself?
Well if there were less people you’d then just look for accommodation for the two of you as a couple.would that make the accommodations more expensive for the OP if there are less people to share the cost between?
There were 4 of them originally so it makes it more difficult as 3 if the 4th opts out.Well if there were less people you’d then just look for accommodation for the two of you as a couple.
Yes and they are more likely to open in the bag on the way home, the amount of times I've accidentally pierced those flimsy coverings on food whilst putting the bags in the bootWhy do shops like M&S not put proper lids on stuff like coleslaw anymore? I'll assume it's because they can claim to use less plastic but it's a load of bollocks because all I do is get the cling film out once I've opened it.
Omg I got Ocado delivered today and I thought god something smells strong. My fellas m&s chilli had burst openYes and they are more likely to open in the bag on the way home, the amount of times I've accidentally pierced those flimsy coverings on food whilst putting the bags in the boot

Stuff like this would really piss me off as well Let your friend do it & don’t factor them into your plans because the way trains are always delayed / cancelled lately going into London (I live in zone 3) you’ll probably always be waiting for them.Me and my boyfriend and 2 friends agreed to go to London for a few days next week and one of the friends suggested we all get an Air bnb together.
