my gran would wait until the end of the film
and when the bit that said the end came up (on old films) she would loudly proclaim THE END. she was a bit loopy and about 93 when she did that

please.
Stop me Procrastinating.
Please.
(what DOES procrastinating mean? I'm guessing it's a posh word for finding anything to do other than what you're supposed to be doing i.e skiving)

Lickety Split!
also: the deferment or putting-off of an action or task, usually by focusing on some other distraction (compare temporisation). It is Latin for "foremorrowing," or making some such of tomorrow.

sounds grim
I don't like that London very much.
There's too much of it and the beer is very expensive and it is full of southerners.
I am supposed to be going to look at bikes in Beverly but I am not sure I can be arsed.

Beverly is too close to Hull for my liking
... my brother used to live in Hull and I possibly got meningitus there with him once. ALso it's the only place the police have successfully caught me speeding... and it's just not nice.
London isn't cool in the slightest - but my brother and a number of my friends have been seduced by the crap wages with the suggestion of good wages to come. Admittedly, my brother's in love with a girl who works in fashion, so she can't live anywhere normal and do her job...
