Squeezing into looms?

Oh, how we used to dream of squeezing into looms. In my day, squeezing into looms was like a holiday and we had to be happy with it.

Last couple of pages are a horrow show, but still the most disgusting thing mentioned is Papa John's pizza. Like puke on cardboard.

What would you reckon is an acceptable number of times to look after grandkids (for those that have them).

So far this week it’s been Saturday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and now asking for Sunday. Love the little fella to bits but I think that’s taking the piss a bit. I never remember ditching my son with grandparents apart from the odd babysitting on an evening.

And it’s only to stay home for a bit of ‘chilling time’.

For that reason given, I'd say once a month.

Yep, kids getting dropped off at school, in the good old days they were up Chimneys are squeezing into the Looms to fix the broken machinery before losing a limb or two, and singing about how good life was at the same time.

Please no, you’ll start the looney left off.

Or it might start you off?

You're the first one to even mention politics. Is that irony wasted on you?

The weird thing about this is I’ve had papa John’s in other countries and enjoyed it, then had in England and it was like you say, puke on cardboard

Ah yes but the bubble and squeaks are VERY family centric, you marry me marry my family.

Despise anything to do with paedophiles but this type of entrapment and violence shouldn't be allowed by the public.

It hasn't been allowed, they have been nicked.

Not sure what was better about the reporting, the judge saying “This was a classic case of the male teenage brain not engaging" or the fact that they were represented by Emma Handslip.

Interesting. I've only had it once in London and it was ok, nothing special, I thought it was probably better than Dominos which I have also had only once. I had PJ's in Bangalore about 10 years ago and it was better over there bizarrely which backs up the better abroad statements.

I've been sick before so can imagine what that might taste like and never bitten into cardboard either but certainly didn't get either of those things when tucking into my pizza. Each to their own of course.
