The vicar did a runner with the organist named Sue
Her poor husband Brian didn't have a clue
The vicar's wife gave Brian a call
As it happened, he didn't care at all
Brian and the vicars wife were caught necking on a pew

Bring back the rope, that's free up some space.

I have so many tales which might also raise a chuckle....

Don't start on Independence for Yorkshire please! 😁

There are already several hundred Civil Service jobs in Sheffield, the Home office occupies two large buildings.  I think it was David Blunkett who organised that, and it now looks as if more are on their way.

We could do with Brian moving over here, if only for the new thread count.  He has a wealth of stories about pensions, inheritance, money, dogs, money, pensions, inheri...🥱🥱😴😴

I wonder whether someone might drop him a few hints over on the Mother Ship as to our whereabouts?
Not me, though.  Not again!

Quote from: GrannyMac on Today at 07:05:20 AMI wonder why Wales is home to the DVLA? Around 6000 jobs in Swansea which the IndyWales nutters don't seem to realise they'd lose if Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 left the UK.  Like Scotland but on a smaller scale and a language no one outside Wales ever learns.

Absolutely.  I'm sure that the DVLA was 'sent' to Wales as one of these government 'appeasing' moves which farm out certain national organisations in an attempt to make such places feel more important.

I'd now like to see something similarly important being established in the Frozen North, preferably in God's County: the new 'Common Sense' department of the Civil Service, perhaps, as we here seem to have much more common sense than the South, sithee, like it was wen ah wer a lad.

What I'd like to see is the North of England also becoming an independent nation, with our own parliament of course... perhaps associated with the South, as long as we receive our fair share of hand-outs like Wales and Scotland do.
