MEANWHILE is the most mature out of all of us on here.

Happy 34th wedding anniversary.

[brexitplus] 24/9/2018 17:20

Evening good fellows, and Zimmer.

Just back from celebrating Mrs Brexitplus’s birthday and our 34th wedding anniversary. How many more is that Zimmer than you managed?

Oysters, sea bass and champagne for lunch in jolly old Bristol. More champers tonight. And the sun shone all day. Oh, what a great world we live in.

Am thinking of getting a dog.

PS. Good day for Syncona and Plus.

Some of you will complain that I've said this before. Now I'll say it again here.

Why can't we all just get along? This is a question, but it's never answered.
Others obviously don't know why but I have my own opinion.

Some participants just aren't up to the job of logical argument or discussion of any kind without lashing out. Incapable of taking criticism, re-examining their own position and moving it a little. There are obvious offenders, I'm not naming them, no need.

So 'getting along' on this site, just remains, to me at least, a dream. Wonderful.

Well I say, stock market and £ really doing well at the moment thanks to the smart Brexit voters.

When do we make up for lost time? Only two years to catch up! ROFLMAO!

Two years less to live for the old folk that voted it in! LOL

"There aren't any positives"

What utter garbage again from Minerve! Clueless.

[minerve] 24/9/2018 16:02

There aren't any positives! That is the point. It is a fool's errand. When will Brexit voters learn this? What pain is it going to take before their egos allow them to accept the truth?

MRO - Sentiment worsening.

The EIA brexit plan is published today. You can see the full document at :-

hxxps://iea.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/PLAN-A-FINAL.pdf

It details the many positive opportunities for the U.K. when freed from the EU, in addition to a mechanisn for agreeing the terms of our departure.

In 2 years, I can't recall any statements from our leader of the process, Mrs May,
which provided any positives for leaving. Now she may have thought, as others do, that there aren't any positives, in which case why was she pretending to pursue the process.

Brexit, Brexit, bang, bang, woof, woof.

[meanwhile] 24/9/2018 10:55

Yes, great idea, and grab a couple of takeaway roast beef dinners (one for the dog, one for yourself) on the way around. So many happy dogs. Wonderful.

[minerve] 24/9/2018 10:16

I know you don't have a dog, or walk a dog, brexit. But I DO KNOW it annoys you when I say so! LOL

Go and take the dog for a walk. ;)

[meanwhile] 24/9/2018 10:05

Low level of sentiment this morning.

[brexitplus] 24/9/2018 08:11

Getting, Zimmer is the same. He keeps saying I walk my dog although I don’t have, nor ever have had, a dog. Very worrying for someone who thinks he is 51.

[gettingrichslow] 23/9/2018 10:07

B+, you may well be right, the sheep poo situation is a serious issue in Wales and may be affecting his ability to think straight. Maybe that's why he kept thinking Keyno was a 'he' despite Minny repeatedly telling him otherwise?

[gettingrichslow] 22/9/2018 23:42

Meanwhile, how long does it take you to get from 'the middle of nowhere' to the 'middle of nowhere'? About 17 hours door to door? And basically you end up in an area that is not dissimilar in many ways to where you set off from, minus all the sheep poo obviously?

[meanwhile] 22/9/2018 18:16

We sometimes fly to Las Vegas on the way to Colorado. We land at 2pm and are out by 4pm. Long enough, although we did once spend 2 nights there. It is an interesting place for 1-2 days, I imagine like Sodom & Gomorrah was.

On the way to South Colorado, we pass the Grand Canyon and Monument Valley, among other sights.

Now come on, can't we all just get along?

[brexitplus] 22/9/2018 14:32

51?!!! Zimmer, you behave and talk like a retired union rep in his 80s.

[brexitplus] 22/9/2018 10:40

Getting

I imagine Vegas also is well equipped for Zimmer frames.

[gettingrichslow] 22/9/2018 10:29

Minny, you don't know Vegas very well - Vegas has some of the best restaurants in the world (you can read about it in an article in your lefty Guardian "As you'd expect for a city with so much moolah sloshing around, Las Vegas is home to some of the best restaurants in the world. John Curtas rounds up the crème de la crème"). It also has some of the best hotels in the world, and some amazing golf courses too, some of the best pools in the world and great bars, shopping etc. Hardly a shortage of ways to enjoy yourself!

[brexitplus] 22/9/2018 10:11

Getting

Agree about Bill’s. I have never been anything better than disappointed when forced to go there.

Re last night at the pub, got there at 5pm when it opened and collected fish and chips on the way home. As I’ve said before, I’m not a big drinker so a couple of pints of fabulous Bristol Beer Factory “Wolf of North Street” was sufficient. Needless to say I don’t get aggressive or use vulgar language when I’ve been drinking, unlike some.

[minerve] 22/9/2018 09:41

He lambastes Bills but is on a trip to Vegas? Anyone spot the irony here?
