OT; Fragrance adverts....

But even if the strength argument was true you can't compare like for like because as that advert shows the Northern predilection for having a good part of the glass topped with a substance that looks like spume from a windblown beach, and probably tastes like sea spray as well.

It's understandable that a bloke may wish to the Ironing. As I tell my missus it is not every day that a woman is allowed to use a dangerous piece of equipment that has electricity and water in close proximity and emits dangerous levels of heat and jets of steam, and that she should be grateful that I give her the privilege of using one.

Any one remember that film years back, Party Party. One character wore something called "Wild Stallion" . When he passed by people screwed up their noses and said " Phew can you smell Orses?"

What's TV?

Seriously - nothing but Netflix and Youtube here - cannot remember the last time I saw a video format ad (and I skip the YT ads after 5 secs so they don't register).

The perfume section of the local Fenwicks kills me (and it's right by the front door so you have to walk through it).

There must only be a couple of perfumes that smell "nice" on a woman - most that waft by on the train smell like something ICI made (and rejected).

It's a gassy glass of 3.5% s**te.

Like I said, far too strong for southerners.

That just shows that northerners have superior taste buds to pikey southerners. When was the last time you had a pint of beer in the wonderful north?

Southereners just don't do good head.

Is that a chip on your shoulder or just the Northern inferiority complex?

It is my experience of working all over this country and finding Southerners to be obnoxious. Bod sometimes posts here, I found him and his wife to be nice people.

There is nothing good about the South. Wots the name of that Blackpool hotel you might be working on?

Quite. They don't suffer fools gladly.

Nar, its the way they are.

That is something I will not name on a newsgroup

It's not that, we just can't understand your northern speech impediment, sorry accent.

It is debatable which is the worst accent in the world. Southern England or stupid Australian.

But at least tend to have sensible names.
