Saturday Slop

 


Surely this is what women were made for?
I had to iron today, a Saturday at that, as I found shirts for tomorrow were running out.  I managed three before I gave up.  How can anyone expect a man in my condition, (Lazy, idle, slob) to work so hard in such heat?  Not only this but my dinner war burning also thereby increasing the warmth in the room.
I noticed an advert saying 'Shirts Ironed,' and looked closer, £20 each!  That is more than they cost!  What a rip-off.  I winder if I can persuade the 12 year old round the corner to do them all for £20?  She needs the money doesn't she...?


With the 'Leadership Debate' still ongoing it is nice to see those Tories who wish one or another to win actually getting bored with the whole thing.  Every channel has a session with them, I ignore them all, we know what they are saying, and boredom, not excitement is the result.  Sunak will introduce private cities, crime and corruption, Truss will introduce lies, corruption and money for the rich, while standing on opposition, and Labour fall asleep, like the rest of us.  None of these people care or understand the country.  The fact that they don't care is more important.  What matters is their people, they ones paying for them, get what they want, the public can go hang.  The unspoken agreement found after the war that change must come, and change for the better, has long since died.  The 2010 Conservative government saw that off, Boris has brought Victorian days back to us all, and his people want him to return.


I like this.  This is an example of the clever advertising I have seen recently.  Another on Twitter came from Specsavers.   No cameras are allowed in UK courtrooms but 'artists impressions' are.  A picture of one from the two celeb slappers arguing showed a poor representation of one of the woman.  Specsavers used this picture calling for the artist to 'Pop in and visit us.'  Very clever.  We need more like this.

Have you thought of one of those hand held steam thingys...hang up your shirts and blast them with superheated steam. They will either look great or disintegrate...

I gave up on ironing....you could call my fashion style 'bag lady chic'.

I see Labour expelled the pensioner who gave Starmer what for in Liverpool....just wonder they didn't call her anti semitic while they were at it.

Fly, I only iron shirts, and anything important, so there is not much of that. Starmer appears to be struggling to keep his house in order.

Only good thing about this leadership contest is that if Truss wins she is going to make sure the Tories are out of power for decades. Telling folk to queue up for charity handouts for their bills, while she helps the rich pay theirs with tax cuts - who but an idiot could vote for them now?

Jenny, There are a lot of votes in those statements. The Daily Mail reader will still vote, though even many of them have rejected Boris.
