A month on Tuesday.
A month on Tuesday.
The previous weekend.
You mean last weekend?
I can only assume he's going to say the one just gone, but I can scarcely believe such levels of deviancy exist.
Waiting with bated breath.
Oh god he's done it.
You're confused.
This weekend (on Monday) = the previous weekend
The previous weekend (on Wednesday) = the previous weekend
The previous weekend (on Monday) = the previous weekend before the previous weekend
Next weekend (on Monday) = The weekend coming
Next weekend (on Wednesday) = the next weekend)
The weekend = Saturday and Sunday.
See, obvious.
And they called me a rapist.
Jesus fuck Kiko.
You need to take a good long look at yourself.
Do we still do that whoosh thing?
Not for a few weekends now.
What was the country that broke the old board because when they say "quarter past 10" they mean 10:45? That was fun. I want to say Holland.
It was always Benelux. Freaky fuckers.
Speaking of which, look:

https://www.invadingholland.com/guid...-time-in-dutchImagine that you are not Dutch but you have arranged an important appointment with a Dutch person for ‘half acht’ (half eight). It could be a business meeting, a doctor’s visit, or even a date. Being a punctual person you set your alarm early. After you’ve woken up, showered, got dressed and eaten breakfast you leave the house with time to spare. Your journey goes smoothly and you arrive at the appointment location on time…
Then something strange happens. As you wait you discover a text on your phone from an hour ago. It’s from your Dutch business partner/doctor/date. In the text, they inform you (with an annoyed tone) that you never showed up for the appointment at half eight. You check the nearby clock on the wall and it is clearly pointing to half eight. Confused, you wonder if you’ve started to lose your mind or if you’ve fallen victim to some weird time anomaly. However, neither of these is the case. You’ve simply fallen victim to the Dutch system for telling the time.
In English, if someone says ‘half eight’ they mean half past eight (8:30).
However, if a Dutch person says ‘half eight’ they mean half to eight (7:30). The exact same numbers are said in the exact same order but there is a difference of an hour. If you are not careful this difference can easily catch you out (like it has with me many, many times before).
Quite a few European countries do that.
Poland has half to ...
And when I was a kid on holiday in Cyprus I asked a German kid what the time was and he said half past to ... As he tried to mix the German and English ways of telling the game.
How turgid must your life be to remember something as drab as that.
I've had this situation as well. A German lass asked me for the time, I said quarter past 10 and she just repeated the time as a question and left confused. Come to think of it, when I was taught time in German classes, we used British conventions.
EDIT: There's your answer, Madge.
I'm not your mate, mate.
Magic outing himself as a mong again there.

Why are we keeping the traffic light system at all? Covid is rife and we're making no attempt to stop it spreading Internally, so why does it matter if some cunt catches it in Spain?
Obviously if a new VARIANT worth worrying about pops up, then you think again, but as things stand we already have the worst VARIANT going, so who gives a fuck?
People can't accept it's over, least of all the people with power to endlessly meddle in the lives of others.
It doesn't really change much as it's not a global system. Other countries still treat the UK as a leper colony or have their borders shut entirely to non-residents.
Which is up to them. It doesn't mean we have to add our own layer of awkwardness to proceedings.
Are you allowed in the US if you had the AZ vaccine yet?
The US is shut to us Brits unless you spend a fortnight in Canada or Mexico first.
Embarrassing.
Another anti-lockdown (we aren't in lockdown), anti-vax, anti-mask protest through the CBD today. Plenty of them are rushing into the food courts, clothes stores etc yelling nonsense.
These losers could have spent the day on the beach sinking piss but no.
See Wales jumping on the vacine passport bandwagon.
Passport to get into what exactly it's a 3rd world shit hole, take Cardiff out of it and the rest of the place has been forgotten about the past 50 years.
Maybe we will need to produce the passport to enter the job centers when they have to sign on for the giros.
With furlough ending, and inflation higher than its been in my lifetime, something is going to go bang rather loudly soon.
Let's fucking hope so. The city break wankers are coming back out the closet, we need a reality check. Where the fuck is that juicy variant?
Melbourne is the loon capital of Australia.

The video doing the rounds of the 70 year old protester being shoved to the ground from behind then pepper sprayed for 10 minutes...
In the interests of your health and safety Australia of course !!
Melbourne feels like a foreign city in a far away land.

All my family met each other for an event the other day and pretty much every single one of them is now yellow inj with Covid. Thankfully most of them are fully vaccinated so I hope it's not too damaging.

Tell your dad to cover his nose, next time.He added: "Now I have to reschedule another airplane to travel back to training camp which is really upsetting, for no reason this was and I'm just so disgusted that American Airlines would do this to us and ban me from travelling."
Americans turning masks into their latest cultural AIDS issue is probably a better reason to avoid the place for the foreseeable than their murders.
Why is Nicki Minaj vs Chris Witty a thing? I don’t watch/read the news but caught some daft “rap roulette” thing on the radio where Fleur East rapped about Nicki Minaj having beef with the UK government over covid. Is it just from when she said the vaccine gave her relative elephantiasis? Why are the government responding to one random tweet?
I'm a twit
Basically how can I worm my way into a Teams meeting with Nicki Minaj?
I'm a twit
I think Nicki Minaj tweeted something along the lines of
"My cousin had the vaccine and his bollocks exploded so think before you decide to get it"
To which Twitter closed her account and MSM journalists bombarded her cousins with threatening messages.
So after nearly 2 years of covid we are now at a point where we have Nicki Minaj fighting for our testicles and the pandemic is now so deadly we can fire most of healthcare workers who refuse the jab..
What a time to be alive.
For my money, we should be firing healthcare workers, but equally, if a member of the Minaj family was taken too young by the vaccine then Nicki should be free to tweet about it.
The end of that sentence makes me vomit, but hey ho.
"Sis, did you have to? Now everyone knows I'm riddled...."
Blaming the covid vaccine for the std you caught playing away and your famous cousin tweeting about it in good faith
Interesting confidentiality laws in Trinidad if the government can just publically post stuff from your medical records.
I think it was more of a case of them saying they had had to investigate and found no evidence of the claimed event [the way it was described - ie as attributable to vaccine side effect or whatever]. In reality they probably wanted their 5 minutes of fame as well, but yeah, quite why this shit is being given the time of day is anyone's guess. "Doing my own research" - once you see those words you can pretty much tune out entirely.
"His bollocks died from STD's. Visit Trinidad."
