Examples of stupidity.

I presume you have all seen Sky news today? The scrolling news at the bottom states that police are seeking information after an armed robbery on a lorry at junction 18 of the M1. 5 million pounds worth of apple products have been stolen...... That's a hell of a lot a cider and pies,..............
No this is in the correct thread, trust me it was said.
 
Went to a Pudding Club evening at Stockport plaza a few years ago. No, not an orgy - well possibly a food one. 7 puddings of the type treacle tart, jam rolly poly etc and all full sized puddings not just tasters. At the half way point I went to the bar and the woman in front of me asked for a G&T with slimline tonic!
 
When it was announced that Argentina had invaded the Falklands in 1982 I wondered how we didn't see them going past us on their way to the North sea
 
Went to the Grand Canyon a couple years ago, absolutely stunning , looking over the edge I could see my Mrs looked a bit miffed , what’s up love , don’t you think it’s beautiful , it is she replied “ but where’s the faces “ ......an American nearby nearly fell in laughing .
 
When I first moved to East Yorkshire, I was working on a production line chatting to a few of the ladies who were intrigued about my accent. A lad was clearly peeved that I was getting some attention and thought he'd have a go.

"Why - where are you from?"

I explained that I was from Manchester and had come here working initially but had moved to stay with my partner.

"It's shit there."

I was a bit shocked at his reaction and asked him what it was that he thought was shit about Manchester. I was genuinely intrigued why he'd say this and wondered if he'd had a bad experience or whatever. I asked him why he thought the whole city was shit.

"I went there for a weekend a few months ago but didn't know anyone."

I personally don't mind the lad at all but that last line is such a Peoffrey line

Me and Mrs Flyer heard that on the radio. £5m of apple juice and apple pies? Then the penny dropped that the newsreader meant Apple electrical products

OK now you have admitted I will as well, that was me and to be fair Mrs Mist just looked at me but never said a word.
 
One of the great mysteries of life. Travel to a foreign country and go to an English pub and eat English food....very strange
Probably one of the main reasons English is the most widely spoken languages on the planet. Whenever they moved abroad, English speakers, would not compromise on what would be the lingua franca (English) wherever they lived. We’re a very insular breed.

Not insular....we occupied half the world. Maybe conservative, stick in the muds, or arrogantly believe our way is best.

Having identified it from a rather unappetising photo.
When we were in Majorca after my dad had a heart attack my brother wouldn't touch 'foreign food'. So we had to live off these weird looking and weird tasting breakfasts plus for main meals we went every night to a Chinese restaurant in Palma for 'English' food. Even worse he thought the Spanish/Chinese owners should do the same chicken 'cully', chips as he got from the Stamford Road chippy in Longsight.
