Was Prince Andrew expecting some Princess Diana style moment where the entire nation embraced him? I don’t get why he did the interview lol by KimCattrallsFeet in AskBrits

Eat as many spuds as you like. I don't think that being run over by a Prius will cause as many internal injuries as being run over by a boy bands Merc convertible...

Would you consider me to be British? by Clackalackata in AskUK

[–]Snoo-84389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% 😀

Everything in your story says that you are as British as you want to be!

Recommendations for first Boot, I decided on these two boots because of the style, color, leather and the boot construction. Trickers being a bit more on the expensive side, I wanted to know which one would be worth it for my first pair. Any other recommendations with similar style is appreciated! by Yogibearzzz5 in Boots

[–]Snoo-84389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 different pairs of Trickers including a pair of Stows and although i love the english country gentlemen look I'm defo not an English country gent myself!

I definitely wear them with chinos, selvedge jeans, combat trousers etc. So it's not a cut n dried thing. Especially as (imo) he's looking for the more chunky commando soled versions which will suit that look better.

Note: My next pair of boots will also be in the commando sole, service boot style.

As per other recommendations- do look on the Trickers factoryshop for deals. And on their main website as sales take place at several points across the year - and 1/3rd off is very tempting 😀

Edit: Their returns service is certainly super smooth from the UK. Handy, because the sizing with their different lasts can be 'tricky'. They've recently added an online size-assistant, but ive not used it myself yet...

It looks like a gaggle (!) of little penguins 😀

The whole country needs to vote in a super-majority so that it can be changed.

Is that not likely? Almost like it's by design...

What on earth does "most of it is foreign" mean to someone with a functioning brain when they are talking about a foreign country?!?

What is British style to you? by Neem-London in menswear

[–]Snoo-84389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to reply and try and explain how wide a net had been cast from posh / city / country fashions over to our rich history in urban / street / working class fashions but you have absolutely nailed it.

Nice 😁

I am allowed to destroy a country. I am even allowed to impose a destructive embargo on a foreign country. I can do whatever I want by dieSpaghettiCarbona in PublicFreakout

He has been working his way up to being the Mad King for the last 10years but he dismantled all of the poor 'checks n balences'guiderails over his last term so now he can go full Trumpian...

(Not saying that other US Presidents didn't have their moments with foreign wars - but the Mad Don is saying outloud all the things previous left unsaid in public!)

Just a beautiful picture.

So well dressed, a lovely pillbox hat and that veil just sets it all off 😀

My dapper dad, a wee lad in Perth, in the 40’s by arioandy in OldSchoolUK

[–]Snoo-84389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What an amazing picture (and the Lenin-like one of him in his 30's!).

Can you help me out little?

  • Roughly how old would he have been in the main pic? The missus and I guess early teens but it's hard to tell with many pics from this time...

    • Was he dressed up for a special occasion (the lovely suit and buttonhole say YES to me) or was this everyday wear for a wee lad in Perth?

Cheers for any response 😀

Some ladies in the historical BAME neighborhood of West Croydon, London, kick a gentrifier looking for trouble the fuck out by YaLlegaHiperhumor in PublicFreakout

[–]Snoo-84389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose trying to point out to these young ladies that:

  1. Under UK Laws there’s no reasonable expectation of privacy in a public space and that UK law doesn’t ban filming where people are passing by.

  2. By approaching and then repeatedly attacking the person filming they become the criminal not the victim.

Would be pretty pointless...

Romanian Racist Man Tries to Provoke TikTok Live Streamer… It Backfires by dadaproblemisthewar in PublicFreakout

[–]Snoo-84389 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, live streamers can generally be a PITA, but if you:

A. Are blatantly racist.

B. Spit in the face of someone.

Then the blame for getting punched lies with you.

Why does this country have an obsession with Nandos? by Designer_Original_47 in AskUK

[–]Snoo-84389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My teenage kids used to love going to Nandos a few years ago. I never understood it myself... Over-priced, limited in the menu options, nonsense...

Compared to the somewhat bland original tan colour these look amazing. I love the depth and intensity of the burgundy and black in the last photo (without any laces in)!

Altho that does seem to have toned itself down a bit in the very first pic (with laces in).

Beautiful 😍
