Straight talking isn't a simpleton, it just means they are direct and therefore in your communications to them - be just as direct as that's what they will response to best which writing your copy and messaging. You hear it on certain radio ads on say Talksport, which you wouldn't hear on say, Classic FM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that number is higher than 250, then you're working class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 23, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted July 23, 2022 We have 1 TV and it’s not huge, perhaps 39 or 41 inch and was only £400 when new around 3 or 4 years ago. Again, technology being unimportant in our house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

royal white Posted July 14, 2023 Author Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Planning out the next 6 weeks for the kids who break up next week. Salford council have put shit loads on for free, superb I thought. One draw back……. Your kid has to be on free school meals to be able to attend the activities . So because my kids don’t have free meals they’re not allowed to attend events/activities with their mates. Fuck you salford council.
