Q.E.D.

What people forget is,”Black Country”people are so well educated that they understand their own dialect and also every other dialect in the British Isles, the only thing that takes a lot of understanding from my point of view being a “Black Country”lad, is why “Yorkshire folks”have such deep pockets.🤓
Is it something they inherit or is it taught in schools from an early age.🤔

So does that mean you agree that tv programes centred in and about the black country would promote respect and regard for a, hither too, ignored part of the UK?

Barbel Mick · « **Reply #2884 on:** August 26, 2021, 08:07:46 »

Hardly ignored Brocket, the rest of the country have been taking the piss out of them for years!

We enjoy that Mick,as it is a way of life if you were born and raised in the Black Country in the 1950’s as I was.Everyone took the mickey out everyone else.😂

Tonight I settled down to watch BSB Snetterton races on Quest. OK for 20 seconds and then it switched to that bloke dealing with cars and that nice Ed China. QUEST YOU HAVE LET ME DOWN AGAIN

Top moaning, Brockett.
What is this mythical Quest of which you speak?

Brockett · « **Reply #2889 on:** September 07, 2021, 09:02:46 »

Quest's EPG (programme listing) shows: "23.00 on Thursday 9th September BSB Highlights."

£3.15p for an ice cream.......in fact some idiot bought two, £6. effin 30p for two ice creams!! It said £2.50p on the board but because we chose to have a waffle cone that was 65p extra! 65p extra for a bloody waffle cone!

Apologies to the Yorkshire members who (quite rightly) will be aghast at such disregard for money.

One litre tub of 'Carte Dor Chocolate ice cream' is £3.50 in Morrisons.
Take a couple of plastic spoons with you and you're good for a chilly treat at half the price.
A few paper cups and there's enough for six.

PS can I come?

Barbel Mick · « **Reply #2892 on:** September 07, 2021, 11:34:48 »

Sounds like a plan for the next day out Brocket.

PS...not chocolate though, vanilla or salted caramel?

I highly recommend Mr Moos at Skipsea. Large servings, numerous flavours and yorkshire(ish) prices.
The road over there from Wetwang chippie is pretty good too ;)

That's Daylight robbery ...

You wouldn't need spoons for your ice-cream, just straws as it'll melt ..

Rusty Nuts · « **Reply #2895 on:** September 07, 2021, 13:02:52 »

Ice cream.....I'm not far from Brymor hq, a diversion may be on the cards.....

Route duly altered:

Blimey Mick, that 2% of your hourly pension.

Bloody bananas! Why can't I buy a yellow banana these days?.They're all either greener than Kermit's cock or blacker than a blind cobbler's thumb
