Salutations from the UK

[lord basil]

Hi all, newbie here

just found the site after seeing it get a mention in a on-line UK newspaper.

I have worked in the ''service industry for 20 years + so hope to have some banter with you all.

Speak/type soon

Morning, make yourself at home!

Sounds like you're just down the road from me, given your region.

Got me curious - which publication?

I work in Bradford, was born in Huddersfield & live near Bingley.

This website was linked in a comment in relation to an article from the guardian newspaper.

Oooh, interesting! Rastrick for me.

I wonder if that's the same Charlie Brooker who wrote for PCZone way back when? I suspect so. He has a similarly vicious turn of phrase.

Well I never. I used to live in Rastrick - went to Rastrick Grammar School as well.

Small, small world.

Hipperholme for me.

Not ... all of it took.
