Cerberus Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Slough. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-berkshire-41351549 I have never been to Slough. I might be wrong but it looks like a complete dump that's full of your standard English yob, hate filled UKIP/Brexity types. Is that really the best place in Britain? Is it a life long dream of yours to go live in Slough? Do you already live in Slough and want to gloat? This is the place to share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Slough Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough! It isn't fit for humans now, There isn't grass to graze a cow. Swarm over, Death! Come, bombs and blow to smithereens Those air -conditioned, bright canteens, Tinned fruit, tinned meat, tinned milk, tinned beans, Tinned minds, tinned breath. Mess up the mess they call a town- A house for ninety-seven down And once a week a half a crown For twenty years. And get that man with double chin Who'll always cheat and always win, Who washes his repulsive skin In women's tears: And smash his desk of polished oak And smash his hands so used to stroke And stop his boring dirty joke And make him yell. But spare the bald young clerks who add The profits of the stinking cad; It's not their fault that they are mad, They've tasted Hell. It's not their fault they do not know The birdsong from the radio, It's not their fault they often go To Maidenhead And talk of sport and makes of cars In various bogus-Tudor bars And daren't look up and see the stars But belch instead. In labour-saving homes, with care Their wives frizz out peroxide hair And dry it in synthetic air And paint their nails. Come, friendly bombs and fall on Slough To get it ready for the plough. The cabbages are coming now; The earth exhales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chlamydia Kid Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I used to work in a paper merchants in Slough- Wernham Hogg. Wouldn't say it was the best place to work my gaffer was a red neck and his assistant was one of they boring TA types. Nightlife was Decent though- used to go to a place called chasers after work some times. Plus used to get a cracking pie and an ale in the Gardener's arms.
