Post Office

Post by Fordoholic Nick »

So,, I popped into the post office on the way to work earlier to send a packet to a mate up in Co. Durham and the nice lady in the post office gave me a customs form to fill in. So I said "???" and she said "oh I thought Co. Durham was in Ireland" :lol: :lol:

The generation of today don't know how lucky they are. The things we had to go through to get these documentation on vhs. Nowadays its just a click away...... from what Jason tells me. :shock: :lol:

No rush with the video Peter as I know when you give it to Jason I will never see it again. He still has my Michael Palin visits The South Pole so God only knows how long he will have Debbie visits Dallas :lol:

When you hear Nicola Sturgeon talk mate it sounds like she thinks she's representing most north of the border. Never believed this myself. If there is another vote for independence i reckon it will be another close run thing. Would be a shame if Scotland did break away.

Trust me here, there are more people up here despise that man Sturgeon, and her supporters are just the brain dead layabouts who take in all the anti English nonsense he sprouts. Sturgeon is too busy chasing skirt.

As I understood it, it was a 'once in a generation' referendum, and indeed was billed as such. Yet just a handful of years later that horrible Krankie woman kept going on about having another one. Because, I assume, she didn't like the outcome.
