Are Reeves and Starmer from the same place, or has time together made them sound so similar? It’s not just the accent (to my ear at least), it’s the nasal quality and cadence, it’s like they’re female and male versions of the same person.

Yes, they are both from a small town in the south-east of England called Lundun. (Kieth was born in Southwark but grew up in Surrey, attending what was a grammar school that became a private school while he was there. Reeves grew up in Lewisham & Bromley)

Last thread there was discussion about Birmingham and the world's largest Peacocks (I tried to convince my mum to go there but she refuses) with a floor dedicated to Greggs with a restaurant and even Greggs branded clothing. Well today I saw someone wearing a Greggs branded hoodie, though it was black and not the usual blue.

In cheese-accompanying news, Asda's lowest-priced Just Essentials pickled onions, which were for ages 40p a jar, a few weeks ago went up to 50p. Was in Asda yesterday, and guess how much they are now?

76p. It's a goddamned outrage. (Don't get me started on how much frozen chips have gone up too. My son prefers fries, but I stopped buying them because even the cheapest Asda ones are now like £2.55 a bag from about a quid, except the JE chips I switched to have also gone from 90-odd pence to £1.60.)

It's everything. Chilli Heatwave Doritos went from £1 to £2.50. All the essentials range basic foods (tins, rice, bread, etc) are all up 50%+ as well.

One time getting the train home from Brum and this group of footy supporters got on too and I paid them no mind even though they were loud as gently caress, but then the biggest lad, a man who was basically a spherical metre, ripped this incredibly loud blaster of a fart. Whatever, that was funny, I guess, but my God that smell. People were gagging, I definitely needed to hold my mouth to stop myself throwing up.

Never smelled anything that bad, even the bin lorries horrifying smell is better.

That’s absolutely down to him. His plan was always to have Di executed and install Camilla as the rightful Queen. Hence why Harry is so pissed off

I don't care about poshness, it's a diversion, like avocado consumption. I also don't care whether people are 'broke' after they've spent a lot of money on a horse. But it is really hard to acquire a horse without having some assets (like land) that lots of other people do not have.

I imagine a medium sized non-fancy horse costs similar to buy and run to a three-year-old, midrange car but I've no idea really.

Not really, in my city there's loads of young fellas on horseback who don't have gently caress all to their names

I mean if you just let your horse roam free on the prairie street, it can graze on the grass verges and that wouldn't cost you anything at all?

Is it just me being based in Scotland or have the local elections that happen tomorrow got even less coverage than usual? Granted, the only part I'm really interested in his the stories of people being turned away because they didn't know they need ID & how that ultimately impacts the turnout. Apparently 2019 was the last election for the councils being elected tomorrow & the turnout was 33.2% for Unitary Councils, 30.5% for Metropolitan Councils & 33.8% for District Councils. Could easily drop below 30%, because the people most likely to vote, the old, seem from the little I've seen, the least aware they need ID, & how many people can be hosed going to the polling station, be turned away, go home, then go back with ID? Seems a level of effort a lot of people will struggle with for locals.
