What we all doing then?

70 years, the absolute fucking boss.

If only she could be in charge.

A time to be thoroughly engorged with British Pride.

Street party? 4 day piss up?

How we all doing it?

Spent 4 great years there. Almost moved back last year. I was Upper Adlington though 😉😊

Of course, top and bottom enders didn't used to get on but it's all one happy village really, especially these days. The ribbing still goes on as expected.

Silver Jubilee was a thing in 1977 but why wasn’t the Golden Jubilee (2002) and Diamond Jubilee (2012) similarly celebrated?

 

I seem to recall the buses were sprayed gold in 2002?

I'm not a royalist and I have very little time for the queen. I do though like the fact that she has dodged all the boring ceremonial stuff recently but turned up to watch the gee gees this afternoon.

If she could just get on with smoking tabs and drinking whiskey she'd be up there with the queen mother in the royals I half don't mind stakes. 

I’ll raise a toast. Hopefully not do a lot with a couple of beers in the garden.

I’d say after 70 years of service - because let’s face it she still works every week - she’s earned a bit of a retirement.

I get the privilege and all that, but in the end, she’s done the same boring shit for 7 decades. None of us will work that long.

I hope her E/W bets all come in. GSTQ

She was halfway out the door as soon as Phil went.

See it all the time with couples that have been together for so long, they just fade away quick.

Sausage mitts will be having crown fittings done as we speak. He can choose to be either

George VII

Read somewhere that she prefers horseshit to bullshit.

She’s been dead 6 months according to the mentalists on FB, obviously the photos from the horse show aren’t of the Queen but a clone

There’s a few on Twitter still claiming Ukraine is just one big film set and not a single person has actually been shot.

As daft as folk on here can be, nothing comes close to some of the cranks in Twitter world

These folk in the past would be the fucking not right in the corner of the pub ranting to anyone in earshot. And dismissed as oh that's Mental Jeff just ignore him. 

Now the Mental Jeff's of the world can talk to each other and rope more fucking loonies in to their world.

I got dragged into a contrails discussion recently.

I asked one fella what his meteorology qualifications were and he just said “you don’t need them to know the clouds are full of chemicals”

He probably struggles to put salad on sandwiches at subway for a living.

bless ‘em

Twitter is one thing but Facebook? You need to clear out your friends list.

I've got a mate who deliberately follows fb pages from these nutters just for the laughs. Sometimes it reaches the point where he's wondering if those posting are serious or on the wind up as some of the ramblings make Youri's look sane and well balanced.

Have said before but a mate of mine has properly gone. Lost to the world of conspiracy nut job Facebook. 
 

was getting worse and worse over the years. But since covid we’ve seen nowt of him. 
 

spends his days writing about various things including how he’s going to move to Bulgaria (????) and buy a motor home (he can’t drive) set up camp in the mountains away from mankind and wait til the world ends and come back and start his own race up. 
 

bemoans everyone’s diet or what they put into their bodies. He himself lives daily off 20 regal, scotch eggs, Bombay mix and erdinger non alcoholic. And the odd banana.  But won’t eat processed shite as it’s designed to kill us apparently! 

hasnt used toothpaste for about 5 years now as it was being used to poison us. Tv has gone and got tin foil apparently lining his loft floor. 
 

was a belting lad the life and soul. Until facebook.

I kind of get people following the odd one or 2 conspiracies but they all believe in every single one. Rothschild, Bill Gates, Vaccines, Chem trails, tooth paste, crisis actors, 9/11 ………the list is endless.

That's pretty much standard. It's rare that someone believes one conspiracy theory and no others.

Once they go down the rabbit hole  that's it.

Not heard of a tooth paste conspiracy! Dare not look at Google.

It’s all about fluoride and how it’s going to kill us all. 

432Hz seems to be the flavour of the month at the mo, not got the same appeal to me as say a good hollow earth theory.

There's a video of him being interviewed on Britain Today (is it called that?) On you tube about his 'views'. Might watch it when I need a laugh 

Before the scourge of social media, these fucking loons were silent squatters in the background who no one knew or cared about.

Faceache and Twatter have given them a voice and there are certain types who are wired up to swallow their bullshit.
