Biatches are grumpy in the heat today and rolling up for the pile on.

That’s nice.

I work with very super rich and they all do all they can not to ever be starred at. The current CEO of the biggest on line retailer in the UK for example drives a battered old estate car and literally no one knows what he does for a job in his local community.
In my experience those who display wealth often have less than they pretend and vice versa.

Very churlish responses on this thread.

I was staring v. hard at a balcony yesterday*. I am absolutely convinced a D list sleb was sitting on it. I even contemplated getting the binoculars out Blush, but felt this might be a bit obvious.

*From my parents’ balcony. Which is not worth millions.

What are the best and worst gadgets in the property. Are any of the staff ex special forces, allegedly ?

A close family member went out with a member of the Wrigley familyfor a few years . Now that's what you call having money.

ZoeTurtle · 08/08/2020 14:32

I grammar real good but I don't even have a balcony. I'll right to my MP.

TokyoSushi · 08/08/2020 14:32
Hmm
Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 08/08/2020 14:33

I was once asked out by one of The Sainsbury's, does that count?

ChewingTurnips · 08/08/2020 14:35

I'm still wondering what was wrong with the grammar in Op's post, KaptainKaveman if you're still here, enlighten me please!🤔

ThisLittleLady · 08/08/2020 14:41

I think I’ve broke two toes. I win!

Witchend · 08/08/2020 14:50

I know, I have exactly the same problem when I'm sitting on the deck of my multi-million pound yacht. I just put it down to jealousy, and stare back, although of course my gaze is hidden from behind my £1500 sunglasses, so maybe they don't realise.

ChewingTurnips · 08/08/2020 14:50

Oh realised KK has already corrected it🤦‍♀️sos a bit frazzled from work today!

KatherineParr4 · 08/08/2020 14:52

Are you Meghan Markle by any chance? Any drones around?

I’m having dip and doritos for dinner tonight.
Ohh what type of doritos and what type of dip? Jealous!
Afwan · 08/08/2020 14:55

Lime Doritos are the ONLY option. A nice spicy salsa works well alongside.

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 08/08/2020 14:56

KK might be back for this little lady Grin

Miljea · 08/08/2020 14:56

Well, I think it would be fascinating, myself!

I know I look at the drivers and occupants of posh cars sweeping up to the (electric) gates of posh houses and wonder about them, where the cash came from, if they're happy! Ditto the mega yachts around the Solent (or off Marbella!).

I find the lives of the properly well off to be interesting.

Dontforgetyourbrolly · 08/08/2020 15:02

My ex used to buy really expensive cars ( with money he had conned off people including me but that's another story)
I used to wonder why all these guys were looking at me , feeling quite pleased with myself. It dawned on me they were looking at the car , but every time I used to forget!
They would stare at ' me' at traffic lights, petrol stations etc Grin

slippingshipyards · 08/08/2020 15:04

Are they staring because you don't look like the sort of person who would live there?

BitOfFun · 08/08/2020 15:05

Why the snark? Confused
