N.O.R.F Posted March 31, 2009 Stand still, wimp – only failures run off to be expats http://www.timesonli ne.co.uk/tol/comment /columnists/jeremy_c larkson/article59925 55.ece :mad: :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Lily- Posted March 31, 2009 He sounds envious he will never be able to make such a decision so he bad mouths others who do. I think people who leave to start a new life elsewhere are not only brave but very adventurous. Who wants to live in die in the same village? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sophist Posted March 31, 2009 I read that yesterday and thought- much ado about nothing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sophist Posted March 31, 2009 Lily! why are you surpised at him- why not me! Are you more of the Sun or Mirror lady? let me guess the Daily express rocks your boat? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Lily- Posted March 31, 2009 ^^LOL, I just think The Times is too white and middle class and too liberal with their Islamaphobic comments. When the Guardian has to slam Muslims they do it with a bit more class. That's all Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sophist Posted March 31, 2009 Lily- Dont you know Northy is now a middle class expat living large in Dubai? No more working class sentiments of the yesteryears in East london! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only looked it up after it caused a bit of a stir in this morning's radio talk show. Sophist, I don't associate myself with all that climbing up the social ladder stuff. Waste of time if you ask me.

Complicated Posted March 31, 2009 Hmmm, if Norf is middle class I wonder what that makes you sophist, Upper class maybe? just a thought in my head, nothing more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sophist Posted March 31, 2009 Norf! jaranjarada waa lawada saaran yahay haaji. Complicated: I am a proud proletarian! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted March 31, 2009 Then you are promoted upper middle class Norf I normally get JC sarky comments, but surely he is miles off from the mark this time. I cant think nothing better than plot on the beach, cocktail in one hand and nice book, whilst working only few hrs a day for my bread and butter.

NGONGE Posted March 31, 2009 Lily, The Times is a million times better than the Guardian these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
