The Jug of Tea place has been a staple of UK Martin Parr type Instagrammers and pre-Instagram bloggers and for about 20 years. I think the price was 99p when I first saw it.

The same old story. One minute it’s a minor tiff over who had the last custard cream, the next it’s global thermonuclear warfare, millions dead, and the rise of the machines as per the prophecy. https://t.co/a1LMTBZxdp— Angry People in Local Newspapers (@angrypiln) October 10, 2022

I wanted to know more about Blyth fan John The Toaster. A (presumably drunk) @NiallBromley gave me some context:"He plugs it in at random bars at away games and makes people toast."He's John The Toaster".🍞 pic.twitter.com/vv9qloKxNI— Fearless In Devotion - Wrexham AFC pod & fanzine (@fearlessidzine) October 15, 2022

― saigo no ice cream (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 23 October 2022 18:01 (one year ago) link
he once unplugged a bandit in York to make toast and when the barmaid complained he said “don’t worry I’m pat tested”

The property was previously owned by Ed Prynn, Arch Druid of Cornwall, the stones have been visited by many interested parties over the years. Seven Sisters is also renowned for its "Hall of Fame". Mr Prynn fixed slate placards to the wall in tribute to people who had a strong influence in his life.

My wife sings barbershop and the other day she had a charity concert at Milton Keynes. It was at a venue inaugurated by John Dankworth and Cleo Laine, and in the other room there was a Barron Knights concerts going on.
Rightly or wrongly, I thought of this thread.

you can't beat a bit of amusing Fast Show character style verisimilitude! I felt like making a wisecrack the other day when a driver skidded on the ice and smashed into this total dickhead's car around the corner from my house, but I'd probably be in hospital rn if I had.

I could imagine loads of of them initially starting off in life with the intention to determinedly go their own way and then after not getting anywhere, saying fuck it and leaning back on family connections and failing upwards. I can't imagine any young person enthusiastically going straight from HE into whatever job mummy/daddy/uncle can fastrack them into, instantly making them the most hated brats wherever they are working, with lack of dues paying experience etc..
