Hedgecutter Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Victoria Derbyshire. If you're going to name a daily programme after yourself, at least appear on it over half of the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob the tank Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Victoria Derbyshire. If you're going to name a daily programme after yourself, at least appear on it over half of the time. She has always been the same. When her programme was on 5live, she bodyswerved it as often as she could, especially during school holidays 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Exceptionally petty, but the need for 80% of my my post to have (or online sites forcing me to use) the address of: # Street, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Postcode i) As ridiculous as it may seem, Aberdeen is not in Aberdeenshire, either by council or lieutenancy area. ii) Who in Royal Mail looks at an address and thinks "Where's this 'Aberdeen' place? Ah... Aberdeenshire, ah ken far 'at is." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Why do folk even bother with address these days? The bairn was sending her Papa (Granda FFS) a postcard the other day and the missus insisted in putting the house number, street name, estate name(?), town, postcode and whatever fucking district Balloch is in. Waste of ink. My mum always did this with the Wardneuk Estate in Kilmarnock. Whether or not it was to distinguish it from 'The Scheme' beside it to avoid the letters being searched, I have absolutely no idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Maybe a generational thing because my folks used to do it in Elgin. Elgin FFS. Almost certainly in the "I'm nae fae Elgin, am fae Bishopmill!" type category. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The only people that still send letters are old people, that voted No and read the Daily Mail. Mainly cause they are scared of computers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Recently had a wedding invitation addressed to; Street Paisley, Glasgow Postcode FFS. I get the same problem with my mail.

Ah... Aberdeenshire, ah ken far 'at is." Soon after moving to Aberdeen, I was getting something delivered. I asked my flatmate - who was from Aberdeen - what I should put as the County/Region, she said Angus Fucking minter of a bird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Was it this thread where people were complaining about buskers a few weeks ago? Must have passed at least five today, the majority of which had amps. One had a full band with a fucking drummer! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev23 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 The missus got a new job. I took this week off with the intention of playing a little golf and watching TV whilst eating takeaways. However, with her getting a new job she decided to give herself a week off between starting this one and leaving her old one. She keeps asking to do stuff like shopping or eat out and I have yet to budge but she's doing my tits in now so I suspect tomorrow I'll crack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~~~ Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 If it's a city in Scotland i'm sure you can get away with just putting down it's name and postcode without the region 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
