IKEA is closing its Tottenham store.. not a usual thing for IKEA to close a store.

Hopefully they will return soon and meatballs will be back on menu

Why do people who have been in the armed forces or police feel the need to mention it all the time ??‍♂️

We’ve a new PM at work. In every meeting he starts at least one sentence with “when I was in the RAF”. Which is then usually followed by a story completely unrelated to the issue being discussed.

Does he still use his rank? That one gets me, when senior ex-officers still use their old job title. When you have left the armed forces, in fact, to anyone outside of the forces when you are in them, why would anyone care?

We have a lot of ex military in our place

Only 1 mentions it tho

Ironically the one who's proven to be a liar and never served..

I think they're like the proper rich - if you really are you don't feel the need to keep mentioning it. So if you served with anything like active service and/or success then you don't feel the need to broadcast it at every opportunity.
