Tracker Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I'm not wishing for anything - except the demise of Jeremy Corbyn! As often stated neither do I have any delusions of being an expert or knowing the answers - there are already more than enough deluded toothless experts on here to do that.

That Port Talbot re-fit was happening anyway. It wasn't happening because we were leaving the EU.. Their Chief Exec, Hans Fischer (ooer, sounds a bit foreign) said he was "really worried" about a possible hard Brexit. quote- "If our customers are affected very heavily it leads to disturbance in the supply chain and so a disturbance in our production. "In the short term, I'm really worried about it. I hope we get a last-minute deal and not a hard Brexit." I know it's the way some Leavers like to operate...but they can't have things both ways They can't dismiss company relocations as having nothing at all to do with us leaving the EU one minute and then the next, claim that a company that is already here, IS here due to us leaving. *-) According to our local BBC news a couple of weeks ago holiday bookings in the South West are up 40% on this time last year.......Because of Brexit >:-) .......... Jaywick "Riviera"? :-| Good news for the South West hoteliers and campsites I guess if bookings really are up 40%, I assume that perhaps other UK holiday spot bookings will also be up then. Not so good news if your trying to get there when those roads get gridlocked normally anyway but with 40% extra traffic? Best not take your motorhome then. Looks like next summer might be a bit crowded here in the UK and no escape to mainland Europe in your van if these queues that are predicted prove anywhere near true and then there is the predicted further fall in the exchange rate, rise in fuel prices and cost of everything when you get there, different driving licence requirements for different countries, 90 day limit, no EHIC card. I bet loads of motorhomers dont bother. Skeggy will be bursting! We can look forward to the return of Kiss me quick hats, Green Flares, Party 7 cans of "ale", saucy post cards and sitting in the pissing rain with a hanky on your head on a crowded beach next to a freezing North sea! Lovely. Those migrants that are coming here want to hang onto those rubber dinghies they will be worth a fortune come the holidays. Apparently Skeggy is the Brexiters choice with plenty of amusement arcades, greasy spoon cafs serving over priced slop on a plate and mugs of tea, discount stores flogging tat, donkeys on the beach, and superb coastal scenery of gigantic windmills plonked in the sea. Asked if he was worried Skegness would not get any European visitors, local councillor David Cargill said, "i think we will get more". :-S Wonder if he's told the locals that so they can get the barricades and guard towers ready?

It seems that although you remainers often tease Dave about his geography you need to look a a map Wales due west even from East Sussex Jaywick south east coast the south west is normally seen to be Cornwall, Devon and Dorset. and there is nowt wrong with Skeggy(east coast) if you like tha sort of thing, at least they normally pick up the dog poo unlike the French riviera where you play dodge the drop. 8-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course patriots should have holidays Dave, great, glorious, pro patria holidays, union flag holidays, holidays here: This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall, Or as a moat defensive to a house Against the envy of less happier lands; This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England, this nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings, Feared be their breed and famous by their birth, Renowned for their deeds as far from home For Christian service and true chivalry As is the sepulchre, in stubborn Jewry, Of the world’s ransom, blessed Mary’s son; This land of such dear souls, this dear dear land, Dear for her reputation through the world, Is now leased out – I die pronouncing it – Like to a tenement or a pelting farm. England, bound in with the triumphant sea, Whose rocky shore beats back the envious siege Of watery Neptune, is now bound in with shame, With inky blots and rotten parchment bonds. That England that was wont to conquer others Hath made a shameful conquest of itself. What's not to like, except the all too true last stanza, that Brexit brings true on leaden wings? (Apologies to my mate Bill :-D) But you're right, Europe is for the rest of us, whose eyes can see the far horizon, not those who eyes are as fractured glass, that perceive nothing save their present comfort.
