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....

British Summer Time, Dilbert? What is that exactly? Surely British and Summer are two words that should never be used in the same sentence??

PS. It was lovely to stretch out on the local European beach this week. :o)

Always knew you were a gritty girl Hilary but you overdid the sun lotion.

We even had a summer in Wales this year hils.

I'm expecting a pleasant winter ending with us leaving the EU in Spring. Been a long time coming but will be worth it in the end.

Off out now to celebrate Cardiffs goal :-)

Take your tablets with you and pin a note on your chest telling you to take them.

You can never overdo it on the Factor 30, iturama! And, of course, I don't like tan lines. :o)

Yes, Dilbert, I did hear about your glorious summer this year. Didn't it reach 20-something degrees for more than 7 consecutive days, and Public Health England issued health warnings, the train lines buckled, and the tarmac on the roads melted?

Cerise Noire Girl, please do not sun yourself on the beach in front of my property as I assume it would put my guests off, having to view you without tan lines.

If you care to post a picture, I will let others on the thread be the judge. :-)

Merkel has now announced that she'll stand down as leader of CDU, to which news the markets have surged even further
why?
certainly i did not perceive her as being particularly obstructive (unlike Barnier) to the Brexit negotiations
what have I missed?

The rumour is that she intends to run for Druncker's job in 2019.

Dil is hoping for a new banana republic.

You were probably there Fred; remind us why Red Ken had to sack potty mouth McDonnell from the GLC.

No easy way of saying this Hilary but you look knackered and washed out. You seem to have lost your pants also. Time to come home.

You'll be pleased to know that I intend to come home this week, iturama - now that summer's over. I'm looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, I also have a short trip planned to the UK in November. That's definitely something I'm not looking forward to!

You're really looking forward to it but just being cussed. You can buy Brexit souvenirs for the family while you are here. They are doing a nice line in water wings for your pool. Not on sale in France as they may end up in Calais.

fred - did you actually bestir yourself to go on the pro-2nd-referendum march last weekend?

Cynic and Dad's army,

Another tory scam.

But you can buy a few of the new £1 coins being minted to support the moral of your country.

Hear the new Brexit £1 coin will be worth 50p.

fred - are you unable to answer my simple question?

Fred doesn't do answers. A socialist only when it suits him. One day shouting all's blue and the next day back to his idol, the sick minded Rowson. Matt is at least amusing. I wonder how much blue there would be if that shower on the opposition front bench were ever in control of the purse strings.
C'mon Fred, tell us why McDonnell was too left even for Red Ken. Don't be shy. A new suit and specs doesn't change the person wearing them.
