Bath is where lots of tourists go. I know this because I grew up there and people would always get in the way when we tried to smoke weed out the front of the Royal Crescent. Godddddd

Yeah, I used to work there and the fuckers would always get in the way.

Don't now though so go nuts

Crewe, Hull, Slough, Maidstone, Luton, Stevenage, Didcot, Swindon and Glasgow will give you the real English experience.

I particularly recommend the Springburn area of north Glasgow for sight seeing and asking for the real local English experience.

Make sure to tour all of the areas of Swindon beginning with a P. That's the sign of a quality tourist area.

ay up me duck.

There are literally no good pubs in Chesterfield left. :(

Carvery moved from the winsick arms to the three flowerpots with the owners btw, new chef at the winsick is Russian and does not know how to cook beef.

Well there's the Royal Oak in the shambles, that's still alright. Couple of good beers, good whitewashed cellar, drink in an 800-odd year old pub.

Forgot about that one, I've not been to that tiny real ale microbrewery craft beer thing with the obligatory old man outside opposite the post office parcel collection place yet either.

Thread: what is your fav Brit slang?

Been having this discussion at work cos there's lots of cross border slang that doesn't make the jump from England to Scotland and vice versa. Some favourites so far (the Scots ones are basically common as gently caress unless you are from England), note I am common as gently caress so the English ones are not yer standards.

England -
Pie off / pied off - to not do something
Bun / 'low that - gently caress that, I'm not doing it
Skanked - this one seems exclusive to my hometown of Bedford but it means to be ditched
Waste / wasteman - idiot

Scotland -
Hee Haw - nothing
Wean (pronounced wain) - child
Skelp - to hit someone
Boak - dry heave
Boaby - penis

Also pumped for loving and use of pure as a means of emphasis.

I only got the game yesterday, and I'm not particularly good at the game, but I do find it fun... well when you're playing in a team. When you're with randoms who drop out as soon as you go 0-1 down, the game becomes less fun.

If anyone wants to join me in rocket league at some point, add me on skype @ Manicx97 or on steam @ Manic X (picture of green hedgehog).
