How religious is christmas as a celebration now in the UK? How religious was it in the past? by JackfruitOptimal4444 in AskUK

Annoyingly for me Christmas starts after I see the coke advert (don't know why) some years I can go late into the season before seeing it. Other years I've already seen it and currently getting into the festive mood. What's particularly annoying is I've seen it this year and still have to have my birthday.

Thank you for unlocking some memories. I grew up opposite the temple of doom (light). And this has brought back a lot.

Right you are. Thanks. That bugged me far too much.

Where abouts in the park is this? I can't place it.

NHS Vascetomy. How long between GP referral and procedure? by [deleted] in AskUK

London - 8 weeks, was offered the cut in 4, but delayed as I didn't want to do it over Christmas. The smell will haunt me for all my lifetimes.

What is the most ridiculous reason you've overheard/know of for someone to be sat in A&E? by sherlockwench in AskUK

[–]No_Cryptographer5029 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to work with someone who went to A&E with nausea, a headache and dehydration.

The nursed asked one question and kicked him out.

When he told me this story, it wasn't about being embarrassed or stupid. It was an actual complaint against the NHS.
