WARNING - Politically Incorrect




We've all been there. You're in a pub somewhere and in their usual corner are the beer drinkers, the ones who know everything and for most of the time spout absolute bollocks loud enough so that anyone else can hear them.



This is a fictional tale about an imaginary pub where a few old friends meet every Friday to do just that. I warn you that you may find the dialogue offensive because there are elements of bad language, bigotry, sexism and racism. The story covers the period in and around the Covid crisis, but I haven't kept to the strict order in which events happened. The subject matter is topical and will include the coronavirus, Brexit, food, sex, TV, politics, and much more besides. I make no apologies for the content.



Any and all opinions expressed are those of the characters in the story which anybody may share or turn away from in disgust. Writing this has been a wonderful opportunity to recycle a few old jokes and invent some new ones, illustrate a number of comical scenarios, and above all to take the piss.



Enjoy it for what it is. Don't take it too seriously, Laugh where you want. After all, it's just a load of characters talking absolute bollocks.
