I've lost more weight, I'm fading away! 👋 👋 

Tonight  its blowing a gale
Across Scotland, England and Wales
Bertie's on the prowl
Busting your fences to make you scowl

The name predates the concept of racism it has been used for several things before this - check google.

Toss up on my last one and I lost the toss.

I looked it up. Google has a lot of answers but this one fits the shopping usage (which started in the US)

Why did they call it Black Friday?
Why Is It Called Black Friday? | Britannica
It is believed by many that the term Black Friday derives from the concept that businesses operate at a financial loss, or are "in the red," until the day after Thanksgiving, when massive sales finally allow them to turn a profit, or put them "in the black."

Do we get a BLACK FRIDAY... What's all THAT about..!!

Why can't we have a WHITE TUESDAY.. !!

We don't even get a WHITE CHRISTMAS anymore..  ( not down here in the south )

Something has gone wrong with this country.. and I don't like it..

Quote from: klondike on November 23, 2024, 12:03:59 PMIt's a warning that a big tin of pink paint was spilled in the Atlantic. It is drifting our way so be careful your shoes aren't ruined if you walk on western beaches.

It also shows that some of those wind turbines are likely to break and our visitors in dinghies are unlikely to be arriving this weekend unless it is face down in the water.

NOW I understand.. 

Why can't people talk in Enid Blyton language more often.. !!
I think all politicians should talk this way too.. They would make more sense..
