Morrisons coming to Stafford?

[Yalla]

Or the White Elephant ??

 

[John Marwood]

It's outside the Citadel - beyond the North Walls

Therefore it shall be known as Far Away or The Swamp

 

[arthur]

I'm going to call it north walls shops just in case it changes again or more shops come, simples

Strictly speaking Mr. M is quite right - it's outside of the walls.

A ditch, formerly known as Thieves Ditch, runs between it and the Burh.

'Thieves Ditch Row' is my proposal. I don't expect it to gain much traction.

 

[Withnail]

Either that or Gropecunt Lane.

Gropecunt Lane got through!

Gropecunt Lane got through!

Makes a refreshing change from the likes of Honeysuckle Drive and the like!
I like the matter of fact way that streets and roads were named that wouldn't happen now. Bone Mill Lane in Rugeley comes to mind.

 

[Withnail]

In lore of old, one would expect Stafford's own Gropecunt Lane to be the stretch of the Newport Road between the Grot and the Grapes.

Excellent, 2 hours free parking that's slightly closer than the Madford one. Especially useful if you've parked in the Madford one in the last 90 minutes or so...

Went there this morning, its huge. ... & theres not much gardening stuff...

This is the current car park sign. The car park was about one third occupied at 2pm today.

I think I will take my 21 year old son with me and park in a Parent and Child bay. They haven't specified an age range of children - unless it's in the 'too-small-to-read' red section.

Nothing in the small print - and it doesn't even have to be your child, I doubt they would have facilities for DNA testing on-site anyway (and it would be risky for some, too).

A nice little holiday job for an enterprising child. Would the age restrictions on child labour apply to a self-employed child?

 

[John Marwood]

Legals.. England and Wales

Child 0 -17 yrs

That may be the legally defined age of a child but however old my son gets he will still be my child.

 

[Gramaisc]

Can you still have a full driving licence at 17? If so, could such a driver be accepted as 'a child' for these purposes? I suppose they might argue that you can't accompany yourself...

Offspring

TBFKAM?

Is that pronounced TB feck em?

My son was made to be a child, even when he was 23+, to get into Superbikes for free.

Quite amusing when they tried to challenge a hairy, bearded 14 year old snuggled up on the back seat nursing a mega hangover

*As stated elsewhere on here, somewhere...

My car was out of action & I askend my (elderly) Dad for a lift to town, I needed him to wait for me & drop me back at home....he drove us straight into a parent & child space. ..

"You cant park here Dad - its for parents & Children" I said

"But I'm your parent, & you're my child" he said...

"Dad, I'm 40"!

I did consider drawing attention to it...
