I'm in North London (actually quite far from anything footbally* and half an hour from central london ) and there is a parade of carcunts with their gun-shot exhausts going up and down the street. I think there's a local fast-cars club nearby because it's certainly not the first time they've been around.

This piece of poo poo has been parked right outside my apartment for the last hour or so.

As you can see it's got a ticket. I'm 100% sure this is a case of "i knew i was going to get a ticket but that's just the cost of a convenient parking place and i can afford it "

*actually that's not true, I'm about 10 mins from Finsbury Park and all the associated Arsenal bollox

I�m also 10 minutes from FP. I even live on CORBYN St (and he�s my MP. No connection that I know of).

Bags of crisps with the salt in little packets inside.

There is a palace staff member whose only job is to open those little salt packets and shake them into the bag. He's called the Lincolnshire Draughtsman for reasons nobody can remember and when he dies he's technically entitled to a state funeral but it's custom for the family to refuse

Really mad that they discontinued them. You could only ever find them in shite little newsagents, I never saw them in a supermarket ever. Kinda like caramac.

The wonderful mint crisp was similar, at least for me. Always in the newsagents that sold chocolate bars from 20+ years ago

I miss Ruffle bars: coconut concentrate stained pink and covered in a thin layer of chocolate. I've not seen them on sale anywhere for a few years now; last time was before Covid started. Perhaps the coronavirus finished off the Ruffle bar?

Either Home Bargains or B&M sells them, I can't remember which. But they are definitely still available, possibly because there's a warehouse full of stock they're still trying to get rid of (along with the prosecco and peppercorn pringles from a few years ago that were surprisingly nice).
