It's just getting beyond the joke now. Me and the missus did a bog standard last curry other week nothing to right home about few sides, 2 wines 2 beers fookin 80 quid'ish !, I nearly shit me keks when the bill came and I'm not been funny but I could have made better myself at home. Missus keeps saying we don't do enough together and that's exactly why, we can't afford to. Everything we try to do cost bucket loads unless you spot 2 for 1 deals. Socialising is a thing of the past

Firstly I'm no tight coont when it comes to going out but yesterday, after the football me and a few m8's went for a few. Now I try to stick to one or two of the same drinks kinda helps with the bad head. First pub £5:50 San Miguel Second pub £4:50 3rd pub (get this) £7:50 Now I'm no tight arse but that is taking the urine. Then theres a pub small run down job selling it for £3:95 so from the dearest that's a £3:55 difference Put that on a round of 4 I paid £14:20 more than another guy. I went Liverpool few months back me and 2 m8's and I paid £27 for 3 Peroni draught and it was dog piss shit. It's getting to the point were an Uber nasty kebab and a few pints is £70 I did £70 last night so imagine you did that twice a week. Then I look back to when I was a young lad out 4-5 nights a week today's prices against wages you'd be living in a cardboard box eating out of food banks. No wonder pubs are closing left right and centre. My local which was always full 4 nights a week sadly closed and is been turned into a convenance store although there's a mini spar mini Tesco and 3 corner shops all within 800 yards of each other. But my rant is why such huge mark ups ?. My m8's son came along for an hour but he only drinks water. We ordered a tap water they tried to charge £1 for a glass till we argued. Sad times

I'm old school like plenty others, you cannot change your sex because you want to do. Your body genetically is either male or female. There was a case were a woman recently walked off from the world frizby throwing women's final because a trans was allowed to compete in the women's section. She will have a huge advantage due to having a stronger arm through all the w@nking

Up the road from me, self explanatory:-

It's probably best making Ringers rant Non political Non racial Non gender (bender bumboy) Non football Just daily piss me off things like : Why do supermarkets like my local big Tescos literally move every isle narrowing some isles to 4ft isle and making some 20ft wide, nothings were it was place is chaos

Not sure what you mean pal,

Nothing beats a good old fashioned thigh slapping pie joke, Traffic?, It all stems from Wigan Lane heading from the town up to Standish. Their replacing gas pipes on Wigan Lane and for some reason they keep putting up taking down temp lights. My wife's had a partial knee replacement Tuesday up at Wrightington hospital and I felt the full force of it especially Weds. I picked her up at 3:10 and got through the door at 5:15 for what is on a good day a 10 minute drive. What fucks me off is, theres a huge bus lane one side cycling lane on the other. For most of the day it's ok, then, around 3'ish most days they wack up temp lights then fuck off home !!. The traffic then backs up from Boars Head pub to Albert's Bar restaurant (Google maps it fair distance) and the other way Boars head pub to Swindley labour club. The knock on affect in the town centre turns it into a fookin mare. And not that, if they open up more on the opposite side of town that's it gridlock. Then you see this and think fook me why ? https://youtu.be/wWd6nMISQx4?si=ZXaYDlGovi--snip

Some places are charging for green bin emptying £59 a year permit. Round here they collect every 3 weeks which is about £3:40 per empty. This is were were heading, we'll be asked to cough up extra simply because councils are skint. Black blue brown will me next probably ask for £300 extra a year empty your bins. Fly tipping will literally go off the scale and fires

My point is, charity should start at home, why not give all the elderly who are house bound a free SIM rather than a potential 200k Ukrainians, that's 200k who could have simply moved to the other side of Ukraine were they happily go about their daily lives unaffected by the war. We are very good as a country handing out to those overseas while we trim back at home to pay for it. As for Wigan ? yep it's a shithole but be no different from were you live

Even the at the England game the commentator refrained from saying there's a large contingent of Albanian fans travelled over he said a large group of Albanians have attended tonight. If he had of said travelled he would have had to say from across London

Look at were the war is in Ukraine against the size of it. Ukraine is 2.5 the size of the UK. Why tf haven't their own taken those in who need to get away from town cities under siege the other side of Ukraine ???. If you ask me it's an excuse for a fair chunk of Ukrainians to legally escape. If we've took 200k how many have all the other countries took in ? There'll be nobody left in the country. And when it's over I take it their going back ??. Like f##k I bet

So the new council tax bill arrives and there's a leaflet in it were it mentions:- Wavelength A charity that provides free SIM cards with free data via Vodafone for all the refugees mainly Ukrainian but it doesn't disregard other nationalities. After reading up on this it then says the charity is to provide SIM cards and data to some of the 200,000 Ukraine refugees in the UK. So we've let in 200,000 Ukrainian refugees when the vast majority of Ukraine are not affected by the war with Russia Google Callum Bowl and watch some of his older videos (some are funny) when he visits Ukraine and goes on the lash with locals only a few miles away from the from the front line. Life goes on as normal in the majority of the Ukraine and we've 200k ??

Firstly , thank you H for the Ringers Rant section, I hope other moaning old t"ats like me contribute as I know you all wanna so dont be shy I was brought up in Oz and spent all my childhood there. When I came back to England I met my Grandma once before she past away. She was Irish and one hell of a tough bitch. She brought up 10 my Dad been the eldest. Were she brought them up in Wigan is still a rough place in parts. One tale was, one of my uncles came in crying. He'd been fighting with another kid in the street and the mum of the other kid came out and clipped my uncle round the lug as they did back in the day. When my uncle told my grandma she went out, banged on the woman's door and when she answered the other woman knew what was coming and legged it out the back door with my grandma in hot pursuit through the house. She caught the woman and beat the shit out of her. they said the area was in fear of her and my Grandad was the most mild mannered quietly spoken man you'd ever meet. on about two opposite attract. So, based on my grandma been a thoroughbred Irish woman that would give me full right to play for Ireland at most sports and celebrate Paddy's Day but I'm fookin English, born here and brought up for 45 odd years I'm English and my only link with Ireland is spuds. Then last night a guy I know , I dont like much bit of a cnut puts a picture up on Facebook in Benidorm him and his lip filler wife Green hats on both lip pouting to the camera "Irish for the day" you fookin tell me ..... sweet fookin Jesus of Nazareth the only consolation was, its absolutely pissed it down for 2 days over there

Why why why would you go out and celebrate Paddy's Day when your English born & bred ?. Now I know it's an excuse join the Monday club but wearing daft f##kin green hats and beards and shit !!. My grandma was full Irish but I'm about as close to been Irish as I am to been Bangladeshi. I've just got a picture sent to me from a couple of fellas sat with green t shirts on, green hat and leprechaun false beards all with a pint and Happy Paddy's Day message all in Liverpool. I hope they all f##kin choke or sh*t their pants off a bad pint in the train home. I wonder how many come with me for my yearly pint on the 23rd April. Anyone who's English and celebrates something they've got f#ck all links to wants a full lobotomy, bunch er c*nts What makes it worse, the TV over here does it as well, Paddy's day themes while St George's Day f#ckin tumbleweed. I've nothing against the Irish but most of them don't give a flying f#ck about, it just seems to be the mentalist English who care and need to get p*ssed over it.
