Thread: Stuck in doors- nothing to do?

I've been so indoctrinated by things i've read about the UK regarding kids being stuck indoors getting obease on xboxes that i was amazed at the events going on everywhere i look.
For example, here's whats going on in my area.

TBH i don't think it was always this good.

Another observation: I was dropping the new washing machine off in the house yesterday and saw loads of people piling out of the train station! where had they all been all day? surely not WORK!! and what about all these builders vans i'm seeing driving about!

Ahh but I hope you are taking your brolly lol

So true. 30 degrees yesterday, p!ssing down today, good job its only that warm rain though. I suppose you can't have such a green and pleasant land without a bit of the old agua hey?

I just don't like the fact that it is still so warm. Nothing worse than a hot, rainy day.

someone pass me the razor blades

Don't be an emo.

If someone gives you razor blades, put them in a baseball bat. - my life philosophy.

mine's if someone gives you razor blades - have a shave. All that razor blade and baseball stuff is far too scary for me.

I was led to believe that kids are only able to go outside without their thermals on 3 days a year and that's when it's a leap year. It's funny what people will tell themselves. :)

Having lived in the UK for quite a few years I do wonder what makes people make these absurd statements, insecurity, making themselves feel better ? I don't know. It's the same as kids will be healthier in Australia or they will magically have a better future (disregarding the near 20% youth unemployment rate) or that teenagers are more polite in Australia :)
