Now I know how they can afford it

[Silver-Fox]

well, not wanting to show off, but I actually spent nearly 250k at the NEC today... and yes I am serious anyone guess what I got?

But whose 250k was it and was it gbp

 

[Deneb]

Not everyone at the show is a potential purchaser. The Bacofoil sarnie eaters were probably just 'window shopping'

Oi, we don't get to acquire that sort of wealth by spending frivously you know!

Why buy a hideously overpriced sandwich when you can make your own for a fraction of the cost?

It's the people with flash new cars and expensive clothes that often don't have two pennies to rub together, because they feel compelled to spend it all on keeping up appearances.

Big hats, no cattle is the expression

 

[haganap]

But whose 250k was it and was it gbp

definitely GDP.....

 

[CazPaul]

You bought a share in a business

No, see all you retired people.... Some of us have been to the NEC but the NEC is a big place and some of us had to ditch the flasks and Sarnies and be entertained in the next hall.

Good luck for ever you bought

Yes you got a mental health disorder.

that sounds like hate speech to me. Mental disability is very serious and effects 1 in 3 in their lifetime. casual insults like that are disgusting

We dined reasonably cheaply at the NEC Wetherspoons, before tyre-kicking on the Morelo stand.

Ahh good old WS hadn't seen one at previous visits. Thanks for the reminder to keep an eye out for them..

Only concern is..... 're their food is it as close to use by date as the beer they sell?

Shut up don't be ridiculous it was a joke and seen as a joke by Paul, we both work in the same sector.

 

[funflair]

I’d just rather wait till they drop down to about 20 grand before considering a purchase, we not all made of money, in fact 10 grand is enough

You might have a very very long wait.

then as a professional you should know that posting crappy throw away posts on the internet can be read by everyone and not all are "in on the joke". I still see your post as insulting people with mental health issues. maybe you could explain it to your employer

I have never heard so much rubbish, if that's the best you can do trawl the forums thinking that is hate speech then you are ridiculous, why don't you report my post to CQC or the local safeguarding board see how much they will laugh as well.
The only thing Big1 that's big about you is obviously your mouth.

Everybody is on tenterhooks here, come on, put us out of our misery please.

I don’t think it was meant in that way though was it?

the downright rude and aggressive responses since though Chris maybe say something else. Rule1 makes an interesting read and protects the forum from such posters

they brought sandwiches because they heard you was in charge of the gas

Let's just say we disagree and leave it at that, it was an harmless joke and was responded to by Paul(haganap)with a harmless joke, I thought your comments were rude, hurtful, downright nasty and shocking by someone who is totally, utterly clueless about what constitutes hate speech.

you accuse someone of hate speech and then come all the innocent and complain when they respond to your awful accusations, amazing.
Then you have the audacity to start talking about rule one and Coventry, trying to create an aura than I need banning, incredible.

One day I am going to have to have a little look at these rules you talk about and know so well, rule 176, page 602, subsection 11, paragraph 4 " Incitement to get banned" which you are certainly guilty of.

I believe it's called banter lol
I thought we brits were well known for their sense of humour?

A care home - £250k sounds too cheap?
A bunch of new beds for existing care homes?
I know, lots of lovely doggies to visit the care homes?
Running shoes for all the residence, they are all doing your 100th Marathon with you?
No, no I've got it - you are taking all the residence on a banging night out, pub crawl, followed by night clubs and a kebab in the street, awesome mate, well done.
