Back when I was working in a pub once I finished after 10 pm I would go to a local takeaway and buy a spicy mince pizza which while being delicious came with a lot of self-loathing after eating it. Later found out the takeaway shut because the guy skipped town owing 10k in rent.

In this thread sir, we are all very familiar with the Bell end.
I think I would have eaten it too mate, but not sure the self loathing would have happened, as chances are I would have passed out in the pizza box before it arrived.
Good man for running from debt though lol!
You sure it was for rent, not his batter wholesaler?
We don't batter everything in Scotland!!!!
A couple of years ago I worked on a job where the director of the kitchen company ran off with the £75k deposit for the kitchen.
10k and 75k are huge amounts of cash but surely not enough to destroy your reputation for. No where near enough to start up somewhere else.
It makes you wonder what goes through these peoples minds.
Gambling debt or something? I agree that it's good money but it's not skipping the country for hot climate for the rest of your life money.
Mind you there is an endless amount of people who have it made in life and seem to throw it away for silly reasons.
I don't know what you mean... Hmm really need to replace this GPU, on the PC that I built and upgraded just to play this space game. Oh and my HOTAS broke so I need one of those too.
You'll need more than 75k for a GPU.
There are some places where if you did do that and run, I have a pretty good idea what would be the last thing to go through their minds...!
I know a fantastic investment opportunity - would you like to know more?
Ain't dat da truth
So, to get back on topic, I just saw a strange TV advert.
It's for the now very green and ecologically minded oil company Shell, and it's one of those insipid ones which must be cheap - a woman and her dad doing environmentally nice things with tractors (hmmm) which is clearly all to do with a global oil giant.
Now, I got as far as the above, and learning that she's called Katie (I think), but then my attention was lost, as daddy is a spit of the legend that is Billy Connolly!
So, as you can see, I have no idea what the advert was about, other than the stuff I have (probably accurately) made-up above, because Billy Connolly is a grain farmer and isn't Scottish any more.
If anyone else is as upset at this as I am, please vote on Shell's issue tracker, as this is not on. How dare they defile a legend, and make him English and environmentally friendly?!
Disclaimer - I think the big yin is pretty eco minded, but if you raise this point, all you're doing is minimizing my outrage. Don't do it, on pain of getting my pet brick in yer chops!

Nope, but now I want to! Pray tell.
Ummm....
I think you mean mmmmm. Brain balls, on a stick. Love em!
That's not true, though, is it?
I've got adblock for the eyes, when one comes on my mind wanders.
It's called Adnams broadside.
FTFY.
