What a sad state of affairs. And as for 'thinking they are sisters' what a load of tosh! I know ropey old twange when I see it, and that woman fits the bill. Mind you, her Daughter isn't exactly much to look at really, is she?

Has heavy makeup and peroxide hair, let alone the chavvy white jeans ever actually looked good on anyone ever?

Blech! Nowt worse in life than Mutton dressed as lamb. Though in this case, the overall effect is so utterly unconvincing, I think 'Mutton dressed as Spam' is a better description!

And now to attempt to help our American friends understand this thread.

Mutton Dressed As Lamb is a reference to a woman (or indeed a man I suppose) trying to look a lot younger than they actually are.
Mutton Dressed As Spam is a reference to a woman (or indeed a man I suppose) trying to look a lot younger than they actually are, and somehow just making it worse. A bit like seeing someones new oil painting left out to try, touching up a bit you think isn't quite right, and instead just smearing it all over the canvass into a brown streak, before running away lest the painter find out.
Nowt is a term for 'nothing'.
Chav's are Britain self imposed underclass, generally noted for a lack of education, a fondness for Burberry clothing, and a shocking taste bypass operation performed when still young.

Hehe, She looks like a ropey older version of her skanky looking daughter. Money well spent?

There's certainly a back street Plastic Surgeon thinking so!

Mind you, if she's spent £12,000 on it, I do wonder what she looked like before, and whether or not we could use the Before/After photos to illustrate the Dictionary entry for 'Can't polish a turd'

Who says you cant buy class?

Ouch doc, hitting hard with your views here i see
ok, they dont look like sisters, and she wasted 12k if she wanted to look younger.

on a side note, you a bit quick to judge arent you?
you dont know these people yet you are happy to judge them straight away.

and as for "chavvy" i take offence to that

Who cares? If you ARE a chav, noone gives two gaks what you think you chavy peice of chavy chav.

Secondly, CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVE!

I do have a defense here! I'm an aspiring Stand Up Comedian, so I'm working on my catty comments.

Though I do concede a couple of well placed smilies would have made my tone a bit clearer!

I would, but then I am an Internet Tough Guy.

Plus I have a Pistol (Seriously, registering a Gun in here in Ireland is even easier than the US)

I do! They shout 'Goff' at me, so I yell back an obscenity, usually followed by 'now say that to my face' at which point they run away. Honestly. Teenage Thugs just aren't what they used to be!

Nah I am glad you were serious.

I wish the Tories were still in power. People would be poorer but at least these donkey-caves would be in jail.

Oh well, not long to go. If Labour win the next election I will call Shenanigans/Rigging.

doc, you would be better off working as a grave digger
atleast they dont have to put up with your jokes



Gwar, so your one of these people that spends all day pissing people off over the net, but when you go out into the real world you cross the road if theres a group of kids walking towards you right?

i own 2 guns, well, kind of, i use them
SA80, which is a piece of gak, but its standard issue, and the ever changing glock (which is being replaced soon due to budget cuts)

come for a drink in soho at some point, might be a nice eye opener to you lol

Damn right we are.

Now get yo fat ass back here.

no, but a country boy like you needs to see a real town
london is pretty different from the backwards villiages you know, allthough, you would have to put up with drinking spirits or chemicle crap since stuff like goblin is pretty non existant here.

erm, doc, with the length of your hair im amazed the kids didnt shout queer instead of goth

I grew up in Edinburgh, so I'm used to City drinking!

Anyways....anyone else have pics befitting the title?

Enjoy

so you would be happy drinking absenth instead then?
better than stella or carling lol


if you want mutton dressed as lamb just google paris hilton, lindsay lohan and other such people.

Absinthe? Pussy. Only a Chav would drink such a weak crappy drink.

sorry, i wont argue with someone who drinks babysham

Please. You dunno my family roots. I Have Italian On my fathers and Russain on my mothers. I have real home made Russian Liquor in my freezer (still wont freeze even at -22C :() and get some nice Italian Hard HARD spirits now and again.

Ok, now I have lost all love for you.

Black Rum > Yo Momma!

for a start, ive never tried black rum, i dont often try new drinks after the 1st time i tried bacardi (aka - paint stripper)
for a second, my parents died a while ago, so it will have to > my brother.

Ah... Crap. Now I cant insult you any more

But yes bacardi = Paint Stripper.

Chav?
Long or short "a"

How can they afford burberry?

of course you can
all happened when i was 8, so its water under the bridge now.


not sure zip, but love it when all the snobs call them chavs (pronounced charve)

It's not said Chaive if thats what you mean, so yeah its a short a I am guessing (that's the "ah" sound rather than the fonzy "Ehhhhy" sound yes?)

What what? Charve? I have never heard such idiocy in my live, an I am Upper middle class ffs!
