My old barber, proper old guy with a handlebar moustache in Warwick, was adamant that people could move to the UK easily if they were setting up a business and there’s no regulation on barbers/hairdressers, so lots of people just use it as a way to get several people over despite having no actual hair cutting skills.

Yep... Turkish Barbers & vape shops have replaced sunbed shops as the go to shop for washing money.

Although up my way, some are clearly thinking bigger.
A new "gallery" selling random art & NFT's for eye-watering sums opened last year with another opening shortly......both located in old boozers.

There was a FessHole confession on Twitter the other week from a tax man saying they know all the vape shops are dodgy but they don’t have the resources to go after them all.

Never ending colds.

I've been full of snot, sore throat & head-ache pretty much daily since my long weekend bender after Hull Away weeks ago.

Noticed one of the hospitals around here named a building after him. What an utter long term embarrassment that COVID period was.

In Brighton it used to be ‘caffs’ - at one point an attempted attack was made with a homemade bomb.

I read something that a ridiculously high percentage of new hairdressers and vape shops are fronts for money laundering but the police don’t have the resources to do anything about them.

Hang around nearby for 15 minutes and if they arent around after that just fold them up neatly and put them next to it on the floor.

For me it’s not just the hangover. My rear end the next day certainly knows about it!
Actually helped me to really cut down on the booze to evade the consequences!

It's the tiredness for days that I hate, generally speaking I can handle the immediate hangover

TV adverts but specifically those for Flash, Vanish and those perfumed balls to put in washing machines. How the hell did people get their houses clean before Flash came up with dust packets & floor wipes that are use once and bin, so much for the environment as well eh Flash? And as for Vanish & perfumed balls, if you need these in your washing machine to clean clothes better & make them smell nicer then just add them to the bloody washing powder/liquid when it's manufactured!!

Ex pro footballers, particularly those from London (Joe Cole for example) not being able to say Bellingham’s name correctly.
“Bellinum”…
It’s Bellingham with a silent H. Pronounce the G.

Was working there when it happened, made me cringe at the time. Tried to subversively re name it the 'Major Tom' ward.
