Now I know your dillusional! -
Maybe its just cos we don't use it over here. Makes you sound like your trying to be a trendy city office jockey.

God damn concience getting in the way again

Should have said they had to cut them to get them off and kept them for your own delightful usage

Xerox is an american term. I've never heard that over here thank god. I would probably need to hurt someone, its so pretentious

Its the capital of culture you know Whatever cock made that up I don't know

I don't know to be honest. Do they do rates for police staff? I'm not a police constable, just considered staff now.

Would have looked weird if she'd had said. Oh thats alright I got a key here
-
Yeah, keys are very easily available.... as are handcuffs! You now you could buy a set of handcuffs for 'home use' and just say you had to buy the set to get the key

Born and raised in St. Louis. Never have I called it pop. It is soda or, most frequesntly, Coke. Even if you want a Dr. Pepper or 7-Up. It is called a Coke. I was just about to say how dumb that is but I suppose its no different to using the term 'hoover' when you mean vacuum cleaner

We had many colleagues have similar *cough* unfortunate events *cough* Luckily one key opens all. They are all the same so that helps avoid embarrasment

The congestion charge. Fuck knows, its more of a toll I believe. I wouldn't want to drive into central London anyway. Train is so easy and I don't have to pay for rail transport I personally don't like London anyway. Theres all this glamour about going 'up town' but in reality, its not a good place to be unless you like having black snot and fearing street robberies. I know, I'm not melodramatic at all But when you consider that one borough I'm aware of has %5000 (yes thousand) more street robberies than my sleepy town its not good But thats off topic really
-
I don't count London. Its a country in itself almost. Normal rules don't apply. Plus its a dump

Hi mate, I'm new myself, been making slow progress, but Headcorn is my local club so you may see me there this summer. I rarely hang around there though. I generally jump and then go home! Been visiting other DZs too recently which is sweet part about getting your licence Have fun and enjoy your training & jumps, I did my AFF with HPC and was great Quite alot of them lurk on here so be careful who you talk about - They read but rarely participate. -
Either a bottle of pop, a drink (genious that one) or describe it by its trade name. eg. "Oi bignose, wanna Coke?"

Part of me would like to do one at some point just to try and be a pain in the ass for the TI or to be a good neutral person for a recently qualified TI to practice their stuff with. The idea of tandem just didn't appeal to me really. You don't pay to go on one of these driving activity days only to sit in the passenger seat all day same as you wouldn't go snowboarding and expect to be steered by remote control.

My personal opinion on the matter is it is a genuine condition, of course it is. However, how many people genuinely have ADHD or whatever we're calling it this week and how many doctors just write off bad behaviour as ADHD. It happens alot over here in the UK. I know one young mum who actually tells her child if he misbehaves that its not his fault, its because he has ADHD. What message does that send to the child? It has become a term to label children who can't concentrate on tasks, have the discipline to sit still in class, control their tempers etc. Maybe there is a handful there that have the condition, I suggest however the majority of them just arent disciplined enough to do as they are told and respect others around them. I think its sad and this is what the problem is with diagnosis.

None, straight into AFF. I wanted some aspect of independence. Think it was the best route for me

North of the Thames is up north. Where civilisation ends and people fight to survive on the poverty line .... But then why is it I'm skint for 3 weeks of the month
-
I got the same. I couldn't get comfortable in bed at all last couple of nights. I was seriously considering the floor too Least I'll wake up with a spine so straight you could use it as a spirit level
-
Thank fuck!

Haha, I know blazer as in jacket. I had to wear one at school cos I WAS a posh boy. Never heard it in any other context though
-
