Don't Wetherspoons claim to sell more coffee than Starbucks in the UK ? Not exactly hard, as Starbucks don't sell coffee, just flavourless warm milk sprinkled with dust

I'll send you Ł2, knock yourself out and buy a wetherspoons coffee
If it meant he didnt have to leave the house on a winters night, he'd get my coat off the hook, wrap me up in a scarf and push me out the door and tell me to be on my way.

You could report the post?
Out of interest, does all the references to Muslims offend you?

It also tells you that you should read the entire thread, a trick I learnt when reading controversial or eye grabbing headlines was to the read the LAST paragraph of the story first - this is where the cold facts (if available) are usually hidden. This is because most people are too lazy to read to the smaller typefaces.

It tells you that we read & write things in context. ****** was the name of the dog - it simply highlights that attitudes change over time and there have been some insightful discussions about the name being edited out of later broadcasts of the Dambusters film.

Absolutely correct, Kieran. Also refreshing to see mods not feeling 'obliged' to close a thread or similar, because of something taken entirely out of context. I'm also pretty certain that any thread would be immediately (and correctly) vaped if there was any racist undertone.

I have a new question for all you locallers!
Harewood House....
Im going to a function thing there next week but what I need to know is, is there many steps / stairs inside and do they have carpet on them or are they stone?
Do you have to cross gravel between car park and entrance?
I've been trying to ring them all day but had no answer and couldnt find anyone at work that's been before.
Had a look on the website / google images but it would be nice to have a proper answer from someone thats been.
Cheers
