Anyone from the UK?

First time I’ve been able to log on and say hi today, the week got so much busier than expected!

Hope everyone’s having a good day, it’s been blustery and wet in this part of the east of England today!

Good to see you

Send @AWonkyDonkey in to do the job

I've no idea how you think I'm the best man for the job.

You fixed everything else that's fucked up I thought, so number 1 choice

@STrent I called out a racist thread in the politics board yesterday. They gave me short shrift. So took their advice. It's toxic and shook me up a bit. They had the nerve to call me a freak.

I'm surprised they're allowed to use homophobic and racist slurs and I believe that they are in here because they can.

I have been upset by the homophobic comments in there before. But, a lot of things upset me atm.

Hehe, I regularly get them when I take the idiots to task. I'm not even gay but the moment they see a bloke in anything pretty it's all like "sissy faggot" and worse.

I know it's difficult to get over to anybody with anxiety or other issues, but I got lucky genetically or upbringingwise or something and can honestly say I give zero fucks what idiots like them think. Water off the proverbial duck's back.

I'm also the one who gets to talk to the wanker customers at work, because I never take it personally and can shrug off abuse without it ruining my day or even the next two minutes.

Faggots, peas and Tiger bread for tea
Mmmm

Meant to post that on the LGBTQ board?

I am jealous. Anytime I have asshole clients getting difficult with me, or if I get wound up by whatever, it takes me hours, if.not the rest of the day, to relax again. I've gotten better with it over the years, but the problem remains

My manager's the same, it gets to him and he either gets stressed or chopsy with the arseholes. I just smile, ignore the abuse and don't let it get to me.

thank you all. what a lovely welcome, to quote J Clary, "always nice to have a warm hand on my entrance"

 

[AngelWithAShotgun]

When I said "the way they like their scones", I meant jam first then cream or vice versa? People in Devon / Cornwall will kill anyone who doesn't have them their way so if you're on holiday down there, watch a local first ...

Do I have to eat scones

If I'm going down there, I'm eating clotted cream fudges with my coffee

Ah but, tea cakes aren't biscuits ... the thread rules state one must be able to dunk a biscuit of preference in a hot beverage without it losing shape or identity (I made that bit up)

You're not doing it right then 0.0!

In my case, rum sour and the shirt’s unbuttoned a few from the top.

That has been a long day….

Rum sour. Sounds great!

Enjoy your evening.

Ooooh!!! @Yesok1 being very daring!

Presumably "sleeve" is a euphemism for one of her body orifices?

That makes sense.

Guten abend!

I am trying to learn how to make “007” cocktails. I bought this book (titled “Shaken”), which is basically a list of Bond themed cocktails, some used in the films, others outrageously named. A bit of fun for the evening!
