To say it's f-ffff-fff __________ f-ffff-fff _________ irritating is an understatement.

However, it's not a proper one. I always feel desperately sorry for people with big-style stutters. I can never remember if it's rude to help them out by finishing their words for them or not.

...comedian, Fash.

This is no laughing matter

It's definitely considered rude, and I do have every sympathy.

He's one of the few clients where skype chat is actually quicker than a skype call.

Actually, I've been listening to Scroobius Pip's podcast a fair bit and his stutter has started to grow on me.

Imagine having an irritating stutter and meeting someone with an endearing won.

That would be really uncomfortable.

Especially when you reply singing.

I like Scroobius Pip. He seems nice - albeit a hairy lefty. However, the quality of his guests varies wildly. And his intro where he tries to sell you **** goes on too long.

no you push people in wheelchairs out of the way if they are going slowly?

In my younger days working on a hotel reception I was extremely busy.

When disabled guest came to check out. I had to go down to the special low down part of the reception desk. Where they insisted in signing their credit card slip.

It took her 10 minutes to sign :-(

The one in the theatre next door to the office had Dirty Den and Lisa Riley in it this year, what a time to be alive
