The Poolie Bunker

Why is The Hartlepool Mail putting pictures of peoples external Christmas lights in their paper IN FKIN NOVEMBER?

Anybody who puts their lights up before December should have a grenade shoved through their letter box for being stupid.

I think we've all got anger issues. Theses would be helped considerably by HUFC going on a nice long unbeaten run.

I just think that they're stupid, especially when they put them up so early.

If it was up to me I'd tax them for it.

Then we'd see if they still wanted to give it their cheesy smiles for the Mail photographer.

We do tax them for it, 5% on all the Electricity they use.

What about the neighbours?

If anybody next door or opposite to me wanted to light the street up and have them shining into my house I'd smash all of the bulbs.

That should be doubled or trebled for unnecessary useage.

And it's increasing their carbon footprint

I'm with Ripper.

Christmas lights shouldn't be allowed up before the 20th of December and should be down by midday Boxing Day.

Failure should be punished by being made to look at Ripper's hair for three whole minutes.

Says you!

come on rip get in the mood
twelve days before and twelve days after
have you never heard of the Epiphany

or the first day of advent Saturday may be pool's can have their own Epiphany

12 days before what though?

The beginning of bleeding November?

But did you get my pm this morning??

You've almost redeemed yourself for the sh*te you posted yesterday!

I sincerely hope Mr Ripper never relieves himself.Wot next?

drivimg through Skelton last night they had all these pretty little lights on the tree's, looked lovely....I thought I was somewhere special, then I remembered its still Skelton, the arse of East Cleveland and no amount of pretty lights can hide that fact!!
