Is there any proof of these two men ever being seen standing the opposite way around?...
I'll demonstrate my disconnection from "popular culture"
Who are they?
Ant and Dec. Ant's on the left
Thank you for the clari-fication
I've heard of the names, not sure what they do....
tv presenters
I sometimes feel like the maligned judge who says, "Would they be popular entertainers?" back in the 60s referring the Beatles or Rolling Stones or similar.
Heard of them (due to press's obsession with 'celebrity'). Never seen them. And before you ask, yes I have a TV!

She said something about paying monthly. Since I had already explained invoices are sent for half a term at a time, I thought we were definitely not on the same wavelength.

One of our locals has installed a live webcam in the bar, so the world can see their patrons enjoying a quiet jar or three.
I am not too sure whether this idea will be universally popular, especially amongst those who would rather not advertise the fact that they have spent the past two hours in the pub rather than taking the dog for a walk (even if it is fairly obvious to everyone else where they have been).

Processed a cat food coupon through the checkouts yesterday. Read the small-print, and it said:
