Overheard at the LFGSS golf club bar

It is shooting fish in a barrel a bit.

At least you didn't start the watch thread

Or this one

Funnily enough it was quite controversial at the times; some people thought there should be no place for a thread about cars on a bike forum. What those people might think of some of the directions it's gone in is anyone's guess. Actually, I've had the thread on ignore since I created it. I'm sure it includes a wide range of views, colourways and price points.

I think it mostly includes Dammit and lynx

And Honda Jazz

And decisions on what smokey arse diesels are best for dodging ULEZ.

If I financed a silly car is there insurance available in case (for e.g.) there’s a financial crash and the car loses a load of value, leaving me in negative equity?

I suspect my 15m2 kitchen may eventually touch £40k

Some hall of fame golf club chat in the owning your own home thread at the moment

I'd always imagined golfers to have big highschool movie-style kitchens where the kitchen Island itself was aprox 15m². Trying times.

I'm tempted to get some golf pants to finish the look. I'll make them plus fours to reflect the downgraded amount of material there too

I don't have an island in my kitchen, but I do have a peninsula.

Is that more or less golf club membership?

My understanding is that not all Islanders play golf, but if you play golf there's a kitchen island involved.
This preconceived notion is based on such movies as American Pie 1-2.
Maybe it's time to educate oneself with a viewing of Caddyshack

Heard on Last Tango in Paradise last night
‘Alan can’t understand why you’d want to spend £20,000 on a kitchen and Celia can’t understand why you’d spend anything less’.

Where Paradise is Halifax.

So colour wise we went Skylight and Juniper Ash, one is a Farrow and Ball colour the other is Little Green. We have Brass Handles and steel butt hinges. We have not painted the kitchen yet but the walls will be skylight as well. Flooring will be Amtico with a border / parquet.

Appliance wise we had two ovens , steam oven, microwave, two tall fridge freezers and a dishwasher. Quooker hot tap with sparkling. Kohler is the cast iron sink. Appliances set us back £14k....

Worktop and splash backs are black / grey granite with a leathered finish.

Our kitchen is 25m2, we set ourselves a budget of £40k on the kitchen and then sailed passed that

proper Barry Homeowner.

Miele.

I spent £1200 on my kitchen, from IKEA, and felt like I had been fleeced

Posh cunt.

Thread killer, surely!

Read in Patrick Bateman voice.

Kitchen Isthmus FTW

Am I alone in thinking that people like this should be burned at the stake?
