Silvio Tattiescone Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 I've got an Indian mate. It's not uncommon for Indian weddings to cost £250k and last 3 days, apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a Muslim wedding, at a Hindu or Sikh Wedding when you ask for a drink, you get a full bottle plonked in front of you. They are mad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 My mate's wedding was "dry" because of the bride and her family's religion. It just takes a small amount of ingenuity and subterfuge to work around this sort of lunacy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 We're off to one in August. The lad is from Sri Lanka and she's French but it's some mad all day thing with lots of mental ceremony type shite. Apparently will only be a bit of booze in the evening and the party won't be long because they're both having to start preparing at 6am. Each to their own but some of the mentalist stuff (not entirely sure which religion it's under, possibly Hindu) but her mum can't give her away because she's divorced. And he's got to bathe in milk. And the guests have to kind of make do from 10am to about 5pm with no food, I'll be sneaking out for curry wurst 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBo10 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 E4 referring to programs as stream now or watch live. They’re pre-recorded not live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if anyone still does it, but it vexed me when distinctly second-rate TV stations started advertising the "network premiere" of a film. Literally just meant that it was the first time it had been shown on that channel, and had already made its way through the cinema, DVD, pay-per-view movie channels, subscription movie channels, regular TV channels with high ratings, and now after ten years it had finally washed up on the shores of Dave or Men & Motors. I swear I remember one of them advertising a network premiere of 1972's The Godfather. Made me think I should announce a Living Room Premiere of any film I decided to watch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravo was better for late-night grumble material in the Nineties; Eileen Daly and weird Jess Franco movies at 3am. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember us getting Sky TV in the early 90s and finding that it picked up a German channel. RTL, I think. Always showed an Emmanuel movie on Friday nights when my folks were out. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
