Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Pardon .

Another incursion into gibraltAr waters. Spain playing silly buggers.

A Spanish patrol vessel has been accused of trespassing in Gibraltar’s waters just a day after Madrid called on Britain to calm down over growing tensions about the future of the territory.
The Infanta Cristina entered the territory’s waters at around lunchtime on Tuesday in Gibraltar's government said was an “illegal incursion”.
The Royal Navy's HMS Scimitar challenged the vessel and it left.

I hope they send one of the new aircraft carriers and nuclear subs to solve the problem.

That'll show "em" we mean business.

Personally I'd send hoards of teenage drunks over there generally abusing , spewing , annoying etc , then let our oldies take over apartments and hotels generally misbehaving , they won't know whats hit them . Look out Spain .

Thats sounds like a fairly typical weekend at Torremolinas Vic.

Of the two vessels above, the little boat is our Royal Navy vessel which is pictured chasing away the much larger armed Spanish Patrol ship out of the waters of Gibraltar.

Ship? Boat?

A boat does not have a ship on deck.
A ship does have a boat(s) on deck.

UKIP won't go to Gibraltar without a fight.

Fred, you are such a miserable toad, I'll try to do something about it.


Here you go, my drink of the year...get some, it will cheer you up no end.

I drink homemade Ginger beer.

Ginger, brown sugar, yeast and water.


Far more enjoyable and cheap.

Robbed from across the road..

that's a great cartoon, regardless of whether you agree with the sentiment


fred - surely the trouble with homemade ginger beer and similar is that you have to keep making it for otherwise the mother yeast dies? ....... or is that another bit of cynic crap?

Are you sure it's Ginger beer , I would have thought that he sucked a LEMON first thing every morning , just to set himself up for the day .

Manuel.


To be honest, I was leg pulling.

From memory, as a boy, I did make Ginger beer and kept it going for a month or two by using a couple of spoonfuls of the "old" brew.

In a way similar to making a sourdough starter which I sometimes use for making bread.

I keep it in the fridge, but my problem is remembering to wake it up a day before I want to use it.

i never made it, but there were plenty of anecdotal stories of bottles exploding everywhere ...... ditto making your own beer

Aldwickkk..(post6694)......of course yes I voted to leave.....as we are paying too much to be part of the EU....and too many illegal immigrants here....

so did i though prhaps not for the same reasons

however, untying the gordian knot was never going to be easy or quick, whatever the unthinking (brainless?) knobheads may choose to imagine

I do remember the home-made ginger beer my mum made when I was a kid, used to give me terrible guts ache. It did look to be absolutely vile stuff, fermenting away in a large glazed pottery panchion underneath a tea cloth in the kitchen. But after decanting it did taste truly marvellous.

To my best recollection, she used fresh yeast, which resembled stiff beige margarine, for each brew. I don't recollect, that it was alcoholic, although it probably might well have been about 3-5%. She used to keep it in old glass stoppered lemonade bottles, which did fizz quite a bit when you gently opened them. None exploded though.

Nigel criticises the EU's response to our Article 50, calls the EU 'the Mafia', gets a rebuke and so changes it to 'gangsters':

As to the EU asking us for £50B to pay a debt to go, he reminds them, that the very building in which everyone is now sitting was built partly with UK money - and so we obviously own a share of it - so they should be paying money back to us as we leave!

As usual, he is completely on the button with his remarks and extremely watchable.
