Apparently Our Mick has saught legal advice after the First Lord of the Treasury yet again today at PMQ's loudly and clearly stated that the Post Office had recieved well over £2 Billion in Government assistance in the last two years alone, after being questioned about the farce that now is the er, Post Office.


Fritz Von Strangely enough loud and clear cries of They're Gonna Privatize it were also heard right across the chamber as well, in fact I could have sworn even I heard it too!!!

Sorry they're a bit big, but these two list the absolute religious bullshit that I translated earlier this year, most pages being between 2-4 A4 sides. Many of these texts were translated from two or three other ancient languages first before ending up in German, then by me to English. The scope for changing the original meaning is endless, as is with all religion, innit*

Fritz Von I changed history me*

In my country (I, at least, percieve) there are only three classes: Economy, Business and First - and you really only come across them on international flights.

A recent thread about smoking in pubs saw the words "lower social economic classes" used by Mick Parry. This got me thinking and raised a few questions:

Does the class system still exist in Britain?

Do any British Forum members identify themselves as being from a certain class within British society? By this I mean either in the sense of their parentage or where they have gotten themselves through education or employment since leaving home.

If any members see themselves as being from a certain class, do they think that they have ever been advantaged or disadvantaged at any time in their lives because of that class? (I mean in such situations as applications for employment or schooling for their own children - that sort of thing.)

If there is a class system still in operation in Britain today, is it more economically based nowadays - as opposed to being perpetuated by those in power?

Deano me old shit stirrer (meant positively John)! Class is a state of mind I feel and is probably no different in New Zealand than it is in the UK? Although I haven't lived there since the late 70's, I do actually see where Our Mick's coming from strangely enough. Poor boy made good and all that old crap, though he over does it, and wether it's for real or just online provocation one can't really tell unless one has had a few pints with him in real life (God forbid). The British Military has a Class system, though when many leave they get an almighty shock in today's Britain (I don't just mean the Civvy bit). My younger brother made a point of remaining very true to his Cockney roots in the early days and I recall his disgust (and dissapointment at the time) when he wasn't allowed to join a local snooty Golf Club in London, cos he was only a mere self-employed plasterer (though he probably earned more than most of them). He joined another more down to earth club later (Golf being a passion of his). He now lives in the beauty and luxury of the Channel Islands (non EU by the way) and regularly goes to Portugal for his golfing (I can just imagine him and Parry getting on a treat, seriously!). It may be inverted snobbery, or just don't give a monkeys about anybody else and I'm allright Jack? but it did amuse me when we were younger that he considered me a snob, etc, etc, because of my outlook on things, though I can't think why, possibly because I've never been much of a materialist (money maketh man and buys Class) hence Our Micks total devotion and admiration to folk who own 6 houses plus, in Europe and drive big motors (irrespective of how they got them).

Public Bars were cheaper, but I think like my old Yacht Club (wet Bar) was just a dress code thing, though many an old Public Bar Cockney was never to be seen in the snug or lounge bar*

Regards,

Fritz Von It's an endless subject though really has no answer I feel John.


P.S. I sauntered into my Docs surgery this moaning to get a prescription, and the nurse asked me if I wanted a blood test (havent done it for a couple of years) as I hadn't eaten etc. She put a tube thingy into my arm (1st time I've seen one) then proceeded to take three viles of my Blue Blood, though it slipped and spurted all over the shop*


I thought an old girl oppsite having her blood pressure checked was gonna faint!

Couldn't get out of there fast enough I can tell you!

I flew over the Specific once Our Adam!

Well spotted Our Acad I didn't think of that, though an Officer Class wether he's a Sub or a General remain the same.


Fritz Von Specialist 1st Class:

Though an Army Warrant Officer 1 or 2 (Sgt Majors/RMSM's) are referred to as Sir by the men and Mister by Commissioned Officers (they being senior NCO's). One often finds a lowly Lieutenant or Captain calling a General, General strangely enough, and a more senior Major or Colonel calling him Sir?*

Through the Ranks Class Abides too, and it's all about as relevant as a Tornedo causing havoc in a Norf London street though really, innit*

Miss Beatrice, the church organist, was in her eighties and had never been married. She was admired for her sweetness and kindness to all.
One afternoon the pastor came to call on her and she showed him into her quaint sitting room. She invited him to have a seat while she prepared tea. As he sat facing her old Hammond organ, the young minister noticed a cut-glass bowl sitting on top of it. The bowl was filled with water, and in the water floated, of all
things, a condom! When she returned with tea and scones, they began to chat. The pastor tried to stifle his curiosity about the bowl of water and its strange floater, but soon it got the better of him and he could no longer resist. "Miss Beatrice", he said, "I wonder if you would tell me about this?" pointing to the bowl. "Oh, yes," she replied, "Isn't it wonderful? I was walking through the Park a few months ago and I found this little package on the ground. The directions said to place it on the organ, keep it wet and that it would prevent the spread of disease.

Do you know I haven't had the flu all winter."


Fritz Von Hypocrisy's naturally a big part of the Class Bullshit too Our Deano, if I was on a pension now, a certain Honourable Member would see no reason (in his mind) to shout lazy lout?

N.B. Another pointer to bring a grin to Senor Parry's Boat race was that as well as last nights bloody beeping of car horns waking up all and sundrie by the local morons again (mainly non German I may add), at 07:30 hrs this moaning directly by my bed (futon on the deck) serious hammering began on the window next to me where the guy was once again replacing the new ledges outside (cut aluminium on cement) which he'd buggered up last week, he also as well as his team being no German if that indeed has any relevance to the matter?

The first thing I noticed when moving to Germany was the actual lack of snobbery across the proffessions and Classes, an attribite I personally find most admirable and attractive actually.

Some Psychology etc, degree holders of various ages in my local tend to think themselves somehow superior though on occassion, soon goes away after the sixth or seventh beer though, hehehehehe! Brrp.*


Little hairy balls*

Yeah and what about the degree educated wife of a lowly NCO having to call the bimbo colonel's wife 'maam' as if she has a recognised commissioned rank or 'ranker' officers (with long years of service under their stable belts)in the rank of (say) captain who are still lower in the officer's mess social pecking order than the newest of 2/Lts fresh from the chappie factory (who still wet the bed)or a perfectly good or even outstanding officer cadet applying for the Guards or Household Cavalry only to be turned down for no other reason than he did not go to a top public school? The British Army is certainly class ridden but it is a system that works so why change it, or so goes the argument, an argument which is most robustly defended by er NCOs who are traditionally very conservative and expect and demand to be led by gentlemen.

Acad me old Bucket, with respect to your above post I'd just make the following comments (which only pertain to my own experience and view, innit). Officers Women (who can admittedly be a serious pain in the arse at times, depending on ones own position that is) are generally referred to by lower ranks Ladies as Mrs this or Mrs that, wether socially or in their employ, though Maam might on occassion be used to the GOC's Missus, or when it's on a company occassion if you see what I mean!


Fritz Von I would argue that modern troops (NCO's and otherwise) are not so very concerned about thier Commanders being gentlemen or not, rather that they're properly trained, command respect and know what the fuck they're doing in the field for the good and benefit of everybody's safety.


Current over use (and blatant missuse) of Britain's TA and Reserve services to compensate for lacking full time numbers will (and has) done irreparable damage to many individuals lives and families*

ALL CAR OWNERS AND CAR DRIVERS PLEASE READ Warning!!!!
Be aware of new car-jacking scheme.
You walk across the car park, unlock your car and get inside. Then you lock all your doors, start the engine and shift or put into reverse. You look into the rear-view mirror to back out of your parking space and you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you shift the gear stick back into park or neutral, unlock your doors and jump out of your car to remove that paper or whatever it is that is obstructing your view. When you reach the back of your car that is when the car-jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off!!
Your engine was running, you would have left your purse in the car and they practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
BE AWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS NOW BEING USED IN GLASGOW AND MANCHESTER AND IS MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE COUNTRY!!!!!!!!
Just drive away and remove the paper later! It is stuck to your window and be thankful that you read this email. I hope you will forward this to friends and family especially to women! A purse contains all identification, and you certainly do NOT want someone getting your home address. They already HAVE your keys!!!

The Buddhist violence of which you seem wholly ignorant - you ought to read the quality newspapers more, chap. Most recently there was widespread coverage of the violence of rampaging Buddhist monks earlier this year...

As for your 'otherwise you can sod off' comment, that's not the God I believe in either!

Why is you have to be so plain bloody rude, are you incapable of speaking reasonably to another human being?

Can one assume that you refer to the quality newspapers with the quality spelling in them John?

Watching the current Bush Blair Press conference (finished seconds ago) it struck me that as they both agreed (indirectly) to have to eventually deal with Syria & Iran at the table, although few people like either of them, it must be accepted also that Bush & Blair are both the present unpopular leaders of their own respective Country's too, innit*


Fritz Von Something's Gotta Change³*

The Chappy who'm this thread was based upon was buried today in London as earlier reported on the Beeb & CNN, etc. Another World class er, News Bringer has shown afore-mentioned Chappy's picture at least 50 times a day+ (Fact) for the last week+ dying in his hospital bed! so don't you find it rather strange that not one word had been mentioned so far on this World Class bringer of Murdoch's up to date er, news that this er, Chap was er, buried today in London then?


Fritz Von Priorities innit*

I would agree with all of that accept to say Colonel's wives are generally know as 'maam' and that all things being equal NCOs and men prefer their officers to be gentlemen but as you rightly point out this is not the main consideration.

Dear Fritz,

You are more than on your usual good form, if you do not find that compliment embarrassing!

And I absolutely know that though we are all born equal, there are better and worse people. It is all down to how each individual behaves during his or her mortal span.

Kindest regards from Fredrik

Beanos heard on the grapevine that Putin is behind a cover-up over the Beslan siege.

I wonder if "Dr" John Reid will make sleeping rough a crime before 1st January 2007, just in time for the Black Economy influx from Romanian and Bulgarian "Official EU Citizens" are allowed to enter the UK.

Beano it's a PhD Apparently.
