Utter scum that frequents there..most probably on benefits don’t work wont work brigade.

Spoons is a pub where you need to get there early
before all the numpties arrive.
Quick breakfast and a drink then time to go.
Not necessarily. I once saw a couple of skanky young Mum’s kick off whilst their babes in highchairs looked on!! Was pre 11am!!
I have just been lucky, obviously benefit bums
making a nuisance of themselves.
Really? You must be in bed by 6pm. Or maybe 8pm if you stick to your 20mph driving limit
I wish I am too busy reading National and World news
something the island authorities should read
THEN EVEN THEY WOULD REALISE 20MPH IS PLENTY
We need a Mayor like Khan he has made the big smoke
such a safe place to drive in.
Even Leytonstone is a safer place to drive
Lol
Khan? The man who has single-handedly ruined London. You really have lost the plot (if you ever had it)
Just watch – will be a light sentence at most. Justice system is an utter disgrace.
