How did we move from the NHS getting 350million to the NHS being "on the table" as part of a trade agreement.
How?

On the other hand, yes Revoke Article 50, and think about leaving the EU in another 40 years time. You know it makes sense 
Good plan, I'll be long dead by then.  :lol

I always take socks, pants and T shirts that are coming to the end of their usable life. Wear them and bin them. You'll have room to bring souvenirs  or a bottle or 2 home and you don't have to do a load of washing when you get home.

It amazed me that so many on the right are critical of antisemitism in Labour when there is so many, including members of this forum spouting such ignorant and vile islamophobia.

Hopefully Farage will split the Tory vote but sadly Corbyn is doing his best to lose Labour votes.

Why shouldn't 'the remainers constantly trying to frustrate, postpone, cancel, - do anything they can to disrupt brexit'? 

I see no reason to make it easier for this country to make probably one of biggest mistakes in its history.

If there's a no deal Brexit other countries will know we're desperate for trade deals. They hold all the cards and we'll just have to accept what's on offer

If you get a new tent put it up in the garden & turn the hose pipe on to test it. If it leaks take it back.


Take holy socks, pants, T shirts that you can just about get away with wearing. Dump them when they're dirty & use the space to bring back a bottle or 3  :)

General / Re: Is your main bike a Fazer?
« on: 07 May 2016, 12:20:14 am »
What about a "I used to have a Fazer" option?


Mine was written off in an accident last October. I haven't been riding again long and am using my old VFR until I get my compensation. then I'll decide what to buy based on how much I get.  :)

Fazer 1000/FZ1 corner / My Fazer has been written off.
« on: 16 January 2016, 10:10:53 am »
We were knocked off back in October. I've finally heard from the engineers, it's been written off and they've offered a fair price for it. I've still got my VFR so I'll wait & see how much compensation I get for my injuries before deciding what to buy next.


I may be Fazerless but I'll still pop in from time to time as this is such a fun group.


Ride safe all.


Cheers

General / Re: How To Behave In a Speed Awareness Course
« on: 10 July 2015, 07:06:33 pm »
I had to go to naughty class a couple of year ago. It was quite good fun and the guy running the course had a sense of humour that he used to get his message across. He was realistic that speeding isn't always the worse thing you can do and didn't preach too much.


Cheers
