I was walking down the high street minding my own business when two yoof came out of a well known electrical shop. They had iPads! I called out "excuse me sir" and they looked around. I asked if they rented or if they where homeowners - they replied renters. I said did sir not know that of he was to spend less on iPads he would be able to save for a house deposit and become a homeowner. They replied "I didn't know" I lifted my cap to say goodbye and climbed on my high horse and rode off into the sunset

Don't say that he will just it proves the point, you being a homeowner an all."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

We've seen your picture Percy and, unless you had a very big paper round, your yoof passed you by some time ago.

As it is I started losing hair at 16 so have always looked older than my years.
I will admit I am on the older side of yoof these days.
I am claiming yoof until I am 35 or knackered, which ever comes first. :rotfl:Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017
