Bognor v leatherhead and Ashfield v Hastings both OFF due to fuel shortages. What a load of rubbish

[distancetraveller]

This fuel crisis bollocks is totally media driven by the likes of the BBC news outlets and gutter press like the Sun.

In analysis,  it proves what a Selfish bunch of people live in this country nowadays, which is a sad indictment of the UK today.

Thank God I am a product of the 50s..

Something happens, BBC / Sun / media reports on it and suddenly it's their fault. It's more likely to be social media driven.

And I was just thinking our pitch would be ready for hell or high water no matter what the weather throws at it before 7.45 tomorrow. Will I live long enough to see KLT at the JDS?

Don’t understand that one Jack, explain please

Think he's referring to people of our age group either having no mortgage or having bought their home for £5k.
Could be wrong though?

He is.

One thing the media (and the Government) love to do is create division between social classes and age groups (the 'culture wars') to distract from their own ineptitude.

Young people take an absolute battering but find themselves in lots of debt and unable to get on the housing market, it's really tough for them.

With regard to the fuel crisis - well, the sooner the media give in and actually mention the 'B' word, the better.  It's been an utter disaster.

It was a tongue in cheeky reference to house prices. 😁

5k was the average price in the UK in 1975 😊

I bought my first house, a two bedroom terraced in Denton, Tameside, for £2400 (knocked em down from £2500) in 1974.
Must have been a bargain! 😂😂

PS. I was working 4 on 4 off, 12 hour shifts for £42 a week. Happy days? I think not!

No probs …
I didn’t buy mine until 1991 as I was away in the Army for 20 odd years..

The original leak about fuel shortages (due to driver shortages) was from the haulier's association who want the return of cheap foreign drivers to keep the wages down.
