    Junk mail, one type specifically !!!! 16779677 It's its 10.15 am on a mild sunny Saturday morning here on Northimberland coast and staggeringly we've already had 3 different takeaway menus posted through our door !.

    Does the weather bring them out, there was even 2 of them posting on opposites sides of our little cup de sac at the same time, one of the take aways isn't even in Blyth its from a pizza place in next bloody town !

    Sick of these bloody menus, I can count on one hand the amount of times we have bought takeaway in last year and even then I go and collect rather than pay for tepid food to turn up and hour later than they state.

    Anyone else get plaqued by this form of junk mail ?, don't suppose our Spanish members get that kind of junk mail ?

    Bloody annoying, think I'll tell one of the reps at work on Monday to tout for there printing business someone must be printing thousands upon thousands every week.

    We could run a wood burning stove with the junk mail, mainly because we are in student land,
    Our poor postman now has a trolley to carry all the crap in it, Virgin media send me an A4 every week, and its a fat A4 telling us we already have them at the footpath, I know that because they dug the blady thing up when it was 2 weeks old Junk mail, one type specifically !!!! 16779677

    We get very little 'hard copy' junk mail, but I get loads of spam on my blogs, as you can see 21 during the night, fortunately there is a great filter so all I have to do is push the button at the top to delete.

    I live in Darwen U.K. where there is ONE street with 35 take-away joints on it,  there are also another 60 or so in the town, 10 or 12 regularly do leaflet runs.  They cannot possibly all be paying concerns so what are they up to?,  could they be money 'laundering' gaffs?, (these are  gaffs that trade very little yet put a few thousand quid a day through their tills), or could they have another function?....  If this were happening in EVERY town (which seems possible) is there a bloody great plot afoot?.

    Darwen is a haven of peace and tranquillity where everyone is friendly, however we do have  one or two exceptions but they don't own takeaways.

    We have corner shop with more staff than customers, most drive flash cars, i know quite a few drop the kids at private schools in the flash cars, they also buy up the student houses that go for auction when a straight landlord gets into financial trouble, also any cash business like private hire cars etc seems to attract those certain types, Its no coincidence that the drug problem grows alongside the influx of people from those parts of the world,
    So to sum things up, Yes blame the people that allow all that to happen the ones with sheltered lives from what is really going on in the UK, The loonatics that are running this asylum, The Goverment

    Apparently they blanket bomb a specific area, usually on a Friday, as they have found that people looking for a take-away will pick up the last one that dropped through the door.

    Tae aways or bars that are empty but have people with pots of stash runnong them are often just drug havens. I know of such a place near here and they are all over the world. UK they also are tax havens place to lose some money from other sources.

    A place I use regular has a bar near by where many a flash car owner is frequenting for very short periods, apart from that it is fairly empty. Not touristic either.

    Many cars = many friends of Mayor. Corruption is rife in Spain as you will soon learn.

    Exactly what I thought but could not be bothered. Uk is far more corrupt than Spain just it is hidden so much perhaps people don't realise. Just pay the bills that go up by twice to three times the rate of inflation every year, hidden taxes, banks, politicians expenses, jobs for the boys, sell off to foreign pals....etc.
