To be truthful my wife clips them but using the word PLUCKER seemed more appropriate in a rant. ?

Clipper plucker it doesn’t matter next you’ll be getting manicures and wearing a top bun.

For 47 years I have never had to touch my eyebrows. They've been the same for that long. But now there's a few hairs on either side that had decided to go grey AND GROW QUICKER THAN THE REST! WTF!!! NOW I'VE HAD TO BECOME A PLUCKER!!! ?

Wait till you start having to do your ears with a garden strimmer?

I’ve noticed watching the golf that so many top players whack it towards the crowd then just stand there saying nothing . I thought the common courtesy , and I’m no golf expert ,was to shout “ four “ , but it’s almost as if they feel it’s beneath them and they have other people to do everything . So many times folk in the crowd almost get brained and the player just watches it

You need a beard trimmer... They have attachments for nose/eye brows/ears... Plucking is for pheasant plucker and their sons

  • 3 weeks later...

Back in May 2019 I applied to Hastings Council for a Discretionary Housing Payment, to be paid from June 18th. This was awarded at the small amount of £5 per week. To date, despite numerous phone calls, and assurances from council officials that it will be paid, I have yet to receive a penny. This is despite the council assuring me for the last 3 weeks that the payment will be in my account "next Tuesday" for the last 3 weeks, it still hasn't appeared. 

I am therefore sitting in the Town Hall until payment is made & the funds have cleared my account. No more promises of payment. I want actual payment before I go home.

It is only £5/wk, but it is the principle.

25mph on an open clear stretch of road, in good conditions and little traffic is not acceptable when in a national speed limit zone. ?

It was cleared in my bank at 1545.

Può giocare con il tuo scroto?

What has your scrotum got to do with your benefits?

Or is that how you applied 'pressure' to the benefits clerk?

I just read that as 'cleared in my bank IN 1545'. Initially thought what you been sitting in city Hall for if you've had the money for 500 years? Then I thought that's a long time to be sitting in city Hall. Then I thought I know a lot of people on here are old men but that's taking the pee. Then I just stopped thinking, easier that way!

Over Cock Hill, between Oxenhope and Pecket. Took an age to get around them.
