Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Well i've been dumb struck and emotionally taut all day with the news that
haystack has put me on filter...I just don't know how i'm going to get over it,
first cynic put me on filter and now haystack..

And my only crime was to disagree with their blinkered views, and put
opposing facts and statements to them for which they didn't have the
where with all to debate.

Fred are you still there?......

You poor old snowflake granny...but you know what a bunch of spiteful bastards these remainiacs are.

You really have to toughen up is this post €uropa world :-)

MaxK, Yes i must be getting soft in my old age and man up..LOL!

Theresa May given cold shoulder at Brussels EU summit in 'awkward' video

That picture and the video clip that goes with it are selectively edited. We don't see before or after as to whether she was talking to anyone or who they were. I wonder who did the editing and what their motives were. She wouldn't be invited to the EU dinner as they are specifically discussing Brexit and how it will affect the EU.

I thought she looked as popular as N Farage.

The UK will be hit with a £50 billion "Brexit bill" as soon as Article 50 is triggered, Brussels has warned.

Confirms the decision to leave this self admiring club run by a bunch of shallow b-------s was absolutely correct.

"The UK will be hit with a 50 billion pound "Brexit bill"...

Rubbish!!..Just a fancy full notion from one of the two main eu negotiators,
who thinks it will help them, it wouldn't even be in the negotiations..Its all
smoke and mirrors, set to muddy the waters in an effort to gain advantage
and confusion...

All part of the bartering process.

I think I would prefer to be playing the EU's hand rather than trying to play T.Maybe's hand.

(Edited. Is that better?)

Are you drunk again this morning Fred your not making sense .

Dumbo, is awake again.

How Brexit may not mean Brexit
Leavers should be dancing in the streets but are instead gripped by near-paranoia
Philip Stephens







Dumbo and affiliates are at the party.

"The leavers, you might imagine, would be brimming with seasonal good cheer. For some, this is the culmination of a life’s political work. They should be dancing in the streets. Instead, gripped by a fear that verges on paranoia, they see dark plots and dastardly conspiracies in every doorway".

Dumbo,

Try reading the article or get somebody to read it to you and explain what it suggests.

So Fred, you think the €uro cold shoulder was a good idea?


The €uroplonkers, in their cosy agreements completely forgot the old adage:

"Hell hath no fury"



The last lol will be on them.

Fred i'm not interested in your sad rantings today ,sorry .

Max,

Time will tell.

But I think I would prefer to be in the warmth of the barn rather than roaming outside it and bleating about how cold it is.

It's warmer outside a freezer Fred than in it , that's the way I look at it.

They can all hug each other to try and keep warm whereas the majority on the outside can get on with business as usual.

The north wind doth blow,
And we shall have snow,
And what will poor robin do then?
Poor thing.

He'll sit in a barn,
And keep himself warm,
And hide his head under his wing,
Poor thing.

But notice the swallows are already b ing off.

75458 - muffled bleats (or gobbles at this time of year) from inside the barn before you get carted off for slaughter :-)
