Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

My wife needs to extend the lease on her flat as it has under 70 years left. Asked the freeholder's management company for a quote and they said £13k. It took a 5 minute phone call asking if that was their best price for them to knock £1250 off
Count yourself lucky. We're trying to sort this out for my late father's flat. Been quoted £70k to renew the lease. That's a third of the value of the flat.
St ****ing Patrick's day. Your not ****ing Irish for ****'s sake. Please stop with all the incessant b*llocks surrounding the most overblown ****ing "public holiday" of all ****ing time

"YOU DON'T DO THAT FOR ST GEORGES DAY DO YOU? DO YOU?!" and you can tell these people are deadly serious.
They get properly upset because they believe there is a hidden agenda that the likes of St Andrews / St George and St David's day don't get the same publicity.

Do you get as angry at non Christians who celebrate Christmas?
A mate of mine was on Fifteen To One today. He's Millwall to the core, but despite that he's a good bloke.
Anyway, gets to the final two and gets the 'Question or Nominate'. So he nominates the other player, and the next question is only about Thames Ironworks and HMS Warrior!
Not only did he dodge that, he then managed to win the whole thing! Spawny get.

Just done a quick Google search and there are BBC articles about the possibility of famine in Yemen at least as far back as last September.

Is that programme really still going? I remember it from at least 20 years ago, and it was rubbish then. You'll be telling us Going For Gold is still on next.
Football fans using the term tinpot club about clubs they don't like, but when pressed can provide a definition for the term "tinpot" , actually why we're at it football fans in general.

It's the people falling over themselves to find any dubious bit of Irishness that I really don't get and find grating!
