I knew this thread would turn out like this.

Dave being a massive BERK basically.

Smallman1 Not really. First viable chance I got to bail, I took it.

It’s a lot less of a slog living in the north.

Some of the shitholes people I know in the south with decent jobs live in - I’d rather not.

    Yeah, most people can’t hack London tbf.

    Loosers with no minerals in essence.

      In all seriousness, you have to see how fortunate your position is.

      Let’s say, for example, you’d not been born into moderate wealth. You would have a better lifestyle in the north, no question.

          Can’t wait until Don sues them.

          What the fucks an air-fryer Zacko.

          One fries things in hot oil / fat or one fucks right off

            Smallman1 could you imagine Don’s takes on Joe falling down the stairs to Air Force 1 over and over and over? That would have been a riot! I fucking hate that he is off Twitter.

                zackster could you imagine Don’s takes on Joe falling down the stairs to Air Force 1 over and over and over? That would have been a riot! I fucking hate that he is off Twitter.

                Don coming back with his own platform can’t come soon enough, the world needs him.

                  Dan Dave would prob trip over the laces tbf.

                  Oi oi!

                    Remember as a student in Liverpool one time walking into Kwik Save on Smithdown Road. They had cardboard cut-outs like the one of Trump in that video, but of Michael Barrymore in a suit doing a thumbs up with a speech bubble saying “Alwight?”. This was the year before Stuart Lubbock was murdered in his house.

                    Not sure if Kwik Save is still a thing?

                        Old-Dutch
                        Lol.

                        Remember being that paranoid one Sunday afternoon we thought better to sieve the vodka from that place before drinking 🙈

                          Remember it so vividly. My housemate bought a bag of Kwik-Save ’no frills oven fries. I remember giving him a load of shit at the time.

                          The next weekend we were at Zaine’s takeaway on Smithdown and same mate ordered chips. They opened the exact same bag of frozen ‘oven chips’ and poured about 20 of them into the fryer. Before relieving him of almost twice the cost of what he’d paid for a whole bag himself.

                          I was absolutely pissing myself laughing. Then as we were leaving the bizzies arrived and went in the back of the shop to arrest the fella who had just served my mate because he had a stolen bike behind the counter. True story.

                          That story sums Liverpool up beautifully Dutch!

                          My Senior Project Manager is from Liverpool….fucking animal.

                          Subtle as a flying mallet

                          Yeah, there’s no doubt parts of the north are absolutely grim. If anyone thinks Liverpool is bad, well… try going to some of these old Yorkshire pit villages like Featherstone, where everyone has been on smack since 1984.

                          The point I was making was really just… imagine you are say, a retail store manager (a median-income job in the UK), if you are in Liverpool, you could be living in Mossley Hill or Aigburth, a well-to-do suburb with plenty of green space and doing some quite pleasant things with your weekend like hanging around cafes having brunch, basically an easy-going middle class lifestyle, whereas if you were doing the same job in London your life would be much less pleasant - probably living in some absolute hole like Erith and commuting in to the West End on packed, expensive trains every day, running the gauntlet of stabbings and estate crime in the evening (if you even go out).

                          I mean, no offence Ed, you’re clearly from a wealthy family and you have a white collar job, and you only bought your first property last year (with a leaky roof).
