Hello From My Englishness

My daughter is in West London on 2nd floor, two bedroom apartment with 2 kids ( 6 and 3) and 1husband. She doesnt drive and her husband is fasting.
For her it's extremely difficult

On the plus side the aircraft noise must be somewhat diminished?

Having lived beneath the flight path for 40 years I can say one gets used to it. Concorde was a bit noisy but a spectacular sight.
My daughter has double glazing and you don't notice it. She is right next to the railway line and the trains are much, clickety, much, clickety, much clack worse!
That said, she's happy.

I too lived beneath it for many years. For a while I was in a flat with a view west over the rooftops from which one could clearly see the queue of planes on their approach to land at Heathrow.

I do remember how very quiet it was immediately after 9/11.
 
Everyone is doing ok and coping with the batshit mental situation.

I’m struggling through. I’m quiet on here, still pop on to lurk from time to time.

We’re in a time where leadership is a bunch of buffoons telling us to use common sense to keep ourselves safe, so when the shit goes down the pan they can act all sanctimonious. I have an old school friend who is a die-hard Tory, ardent supporter of Johnson, she seems suspiciously quiet at the moment. I know you come here for the tits and stuff ...

Hey Mr.D........be alert.....stay safe....poke Boris with a stick

Just wondering, post corona , following his near death experience, will Boris continue to support the NHS or remain determined to sell it to the USA?

I’ve been alert for hours. This virus really is a pesky thing. I can’t see it. Don’t tell it your name, Pike.

He’ll know which side his bread’s buttered and make his own bed ... how many mixed metaphors can I cram into one kettle of fish
 
Check out knee deep by the same band. Glad I could help.

"Be back in a minute"
Bought a boat and I sailed off in it
Don't think anybody's gonna miss me anyway

I'm a convert! Will have to swap the boat for a car, but it's getting to that stage. Thank you :)
 
Ohh. He sounds good. I didn’t know there were country music fans around these parts. I was supposed to be seeing Morgan Wallen play this week.

Checked out some of his stuff yesterday, sounds good. Is the concert getting rearrange or just cancelled?

Happy hump day (though that has lost some of its meaning) What are folks up to?

I will freely admit to thinking until very recently that the hump referred to was of a totally different kind...

Depends on how lucky you get. Though with more people working from home or in lockdown together........who knows
 
Not sure if that will lead to more or less humps as people deal with closed quarters. Interesting to see whether there's a divorce boom as high as the inevitable baby boom.


domestic abuse is off the scales at the moment. and all the guilty will have an alibi " the lockdown made me do it" and the fucked up gobshites will live another day.
