    I don't watch the news or read a newspaper so I'm pretty clueless to what's going on apart from the rare occasion I hear stuff on the radio or titbits from Charlton Life.
    (I'm a hermit most of the time )
    Don't watch films , listen to music or much tv only for football , cricket , tennis a bit of athletics apart
    Politics , no idea prolly voted twice in my first 20 years that I could Valley Party and a local councillor that we knew in Mottingham , wife now says I have to vote for whoever will serve our best interests locally and I only do that cos she'll bribe me with sex.
    Don't know any of the roads really around here Epping (lived this way for 11 years) I know the route back South and to M25 , to sons footy and cricket clubs and to their school .
    Less than Zero interest in cars , motorbikes etc
    Gardening , DIY absolutely no idea

    Basically I'm not an adult

    That's one hell of a tinder profile.

    if I'm to go for something to eat and am asked if I'd like to eat alfresco from the ala carte menu with al dente vegetables, I'd say no mate it's ok, I'll pick what I want myself but I do like crunchy veg. And we'll sit outside if that's ok.

    Glad I made it clear yesterday that I'm not interested in politics.

    The bribe with sex line has made me realise why your posts contain x-20% y-45% z-35%.
    I thought this was guesswork from you but now know you secretly set up a poll and play the old "I'm not taking part dear. My vote won't make a difference" card.

    The royal family. I know people who know every royal we've had, what order, the years they were on the throne, what children they had... They are mistaken in their smugness. I know the current one, and Henry the 8th. But only because he's a unit of weight

    Edit I do myself a disservice. I know of Richard III because he's a poo

    And Elizabeth the 1st as she was on Blackadder
    Jokes aside, I genuinely reckon my history knowledge would be worse without Blackadder.

    The only historic royal I really know anything about is George IV (i.e The Prince Regent).. thanks to Blackadder. I'm pretty sure I googled "Was prince george really stupid", and before I knew it.. one thing led to another and I'd even bought books on the fecker.

    Apart from that, I don't know much about the history of the royal family. I'm not even sure I could name Henry the Eighth's wives.

    - History.

    - Football, outside of whatever league Charlton are in.

    - Card games, I don't think I know any.

    Good call. Wouldn't say I was a football fan just a Charlton fan. Don't care really unless I have a vested interest in the match.

    That's exactly my outlook, canters!

    The only time I've really binged on football was when I was a bit lonely and working in Sweden, I'd finish work - drop my stuff off at the hotel, then hit a sports bar to have some drinks and watch repeats of european teams I've never heard of. I reckon half of that was for the girl who worked behind the bar to be fair!

    I mean, I can enjoy watching the class and trickery of a decent match, but it's rare for me to actually get in to it "properly". My football knowledge is atrocious!

    Then you're missing out. I've seen people share memes that seem to celebrate not seeing an episode like it makes then cool.
