Say what?

I thought that leaving the garage job would mean I have less encounters with weird individuals and therefore have less funny quotes to report in this blog, but in fact, there have been a steady stream of quotable conversations at the holiday centres. Maybe people being away from home and more relaxed makes them more likely to let their guard down and say something accidentally controversial. Anyway, here are a few ‘corkers’ I have noted down after hearing them from assorted bods over the Summer:
Most of them, it might be worth mentioning, came from men….

“Boris Johnson should have died last year when he had Covid. I’m not saying I wish him harm, but it would have made people take the virus more seriously and we wouldn’t be where we are now.”

“There has never been a better time to be a woman, and yet women are moaning more than ever.”

“Suffolk reminds me a lot of Brisbane, but with, y’know, less things that can kill you."

“Whoever marketed our caravan as having ‘ample head room’ should have their testicles put in a vice.”

“If I knew then what I know now, I would have taken more drugs and done myself more damage so that I wouldn’t even know it now because I’d have forgotten it, then it wouldn’t bother me.”
