it just feels More and More like this countrys changing

' “There’s more to this,” he said. “Morrisons have got their own agenda. '

THIS is Real England April 2018. All conspiracy theories and desperate hopelessness.

Yeah '..agenda' is the new 'narrative'.

In fact 'They've got their own agenda' is to the late 2010s what 'It's political correctness gone mad' was to the mid-1990s.

Ketchup for Surrey? Guess they never asked anyone in Woking.

I feel I will never fully grasp Real Englishness cos I can't for the life of me understand the appeal of chips and gravy.

If I'm having sausages and chips I'll make some instant onion gravy. I can't get down with curry sauce.

just think of it as shitty poutine

chip shop curry sauce is the greatest thing though

I'm not a chip snob, but feel strongly that something as simple as onion gravy should be made with caramelised onions, butter, wine, beef stock, flour etc, not that fucking instant shite!

Your chips'd go cold

being a top class masterchef is all about timing.

I once saw a Chippy Chinese style Curry sauce youtube masterclass. You basically just deepfry a load of onions, apples, garlic, ginger and then add industrial amounts of oil, flour, msg, madras curry powder to the filtered out gack. The process was so repulsive it put me off having it, until the next time I had it and loved it of course!

Sometimes chippy curry sauce overdoes the sweetness for me but when it's on song it's the best, noe let us talk of this no more cos my local chippy doesn't open on a sunday

curry sauce is just spicy gravy

not that fucking instant shite!

Bisto Onion Gravy is pretty good.

Although Bisto Chicken Gravy with chicken and chips is even better.

I know that probably makes me sound unsophisticated but we can't all be M. White.

lmao

curry sauce is just spicy gravy

fair enough i guess but that's like saying wine is just boozey grape juice

I was wondering 'do Bisto make an instant curry sauce?' and of course they do because Real England:

I didn't mean it in a judgemental way snoball, peace to all and whatever gravy you like. But there ain't nothing sophis' about making it yourself ffs!

Cooking with wine is pretty sophis where I come from. Although keep in mind that up until the late 80s 'curry' in this area meant minced beef with a bit of curry powder and sultanas. Maybe put a bit of turmeric in with the rice to be fancy.

packets of readymix curry sauce were an 80s classic if you love sweet yellow gunk

the thing about that Chinese "curry and chips" style sauce is that it's obviously really fucken basic but the difference between a great one and a crap one is so huge

“The process was so repulsive it put me off having it, until the next time I had it and loved it of course!”

This reads like a viz letter and therefore belongs on this thread too

not putting work headphones on for that

sometimes pride is a v strange concept

posted without irony on the Town football messageboard, St George's day thread, which also doubles as a racist Diane Abbott meme repository.

"Ah man's just ah man in my England"

About that, you twat.

hanging's too good for them

some weird psychology behind choosing the most horrible nightmare dolls to represent the new royal baby

William Burroughs embalmed cadaver kissing doll is like some 90's YBA shite.

nightmare dolls giving Hitler salutes

it's a lifestyle choice, it's no worse than a lot of others i guess

i briefly ponder where that guy found a fortnight's freedom to be able to camp out in front of a maternity hospital but that's how they think, not me

i ask myself why you'd want to cosplay Ken Baily but a quick Google seems to indicate that the rumours about him must have been unproven

It's more a case of Stockholm Syndrome than lifestyle choice imo. Praise the scum that's keeping you down.

i'm not one hundred percent on how familiar Yorkshire Prose is with the work of Shakespeare or Daniel Defoe but he knows about supping so fair enough

being a complete twat is pretty thirsty work!

tell me about it

He's the kind of guy who used to make nonchalantly lying back in my seat whilst Alex ruins a minutes silence, such a massive pleasure at football matches.

lol

He reminds me of the fake Yorkshire announcer guy they put on (some of?) the buses last year'.

'Reet, the next stop will be t'B.R.I, get y'sen in here if thas owt wrong wi your gall bladder, an stop your mitherin an all'

There died a myriad,
And of the best, among them,
For an old bitch gone in the teeth,
For a thatched civilization,

For two gross of proper breakfasts,
For a few thousand battered sausages.
