@mangoyan_n@TerrimFa1@hughlaurie Twaddle. Might have home(s) over there but primarily UK based & came to major prominence via 4 weddings. Whether that was big in the US or not is of no relevance because the US isn't the centre of the universe
@TerrimFa1@hughlaurie American 'enabled' nothing, he was a 'well known actor' in Britain for years before you numpties got in on the act. If you travelled beyond your borders you'd realise just how insular America is.
@Britpopmemories@CA1882 Oh I SEE!!!! And I've only just taken my own Adidas off too 🫣🫣 TBF I was probably in cheapo market shoes in this era so they passed me by 🤣🤣
@realLeslieLesh@HoopKnowledge22@kirawontmiss Incorrect. SOME places add it onto your bill, others don't. I just had a meal in London where it was added on but this certainly isn't the case everywhere & differs with each establishment.
@realLeslieLesh@kirawontmiss 2) if people stop being able to afford to eat out because of the cost of food then increasing tipping, where will the customers be, to tip the servers who aren't paid a decent wage?
@realLeslieLesh@kirawontmiss 1) Europe's a massive area, with many different countries with different cultures!!! In the UK it's generally been 10%, now seems to be veering to 12%... I earn a 'decent' wage yet am struggling & can't afford to eat out much. If people stop being able to eat out ....
@Britpopmemories Omg I scared one of these at the student union bar, Preston Uni! One of the longer haired lads was next to me, handful of shots, I drunkenly & excitedly wittered & talked shite. Just remember him looking stunned, probably seeking escape 🫣. Mortified. Sorry if he's reading...
@Britpopmemories@HeresGilly@BRITs 🤣 TBF, I often say I'm from Manchester to people I don't know because it's nearish also easier than trying to pinpoint the Northern shit hole that I'm actually from 🤣🤣
@Britpopmemories@HeresGilly@BRITs Perhaps. To me (Northerner) they're just southerners 😁 & that's probably because it's such a distance it feels like a general area - much as Oop North probably is for Southerners?
@Britpopmemories@HeresGilly@BRITs I've never considered Charlatans Manchester exactly for that reason! North west at best. And The Hollies are predominantly not Manchester... Burnley is an hour away & Nelson/Colne even further! So there 🤣
@Britpopmemories@HeresGilly@BRITs Might want to extend area coverage to Lancashire or North West - most of The Hollies came from Burnley and other North West Lancs towns 😁
@TheTommyCannon I loved you & Bobby growing up & Bobby's later stuff. I saw you in a chippy in Blackpool once but my parents wouldn't let me in to speak to you, I was gutted!! Keep on keeping on - the naysayers are just jealous that you've found a job you love! If you have that, why give it up x
