I didnā€™t think it would come to this tbh, around 6 months ago I posted that BJ would get an extension on the WA, dam how silly a I was.

Yeah in the 70ā€™s we worked u til the 24th and I remember the days my mum would take us to meet the father so she could commandeer his wagesā€¦ :rofl:

And the reason I remember it was because that day was the work party day, when the kids all got a present from the factory and those parties got cancelled around 1977/78 making me rather sad. :frowning:

I also remember those days we got an orange for Xmas as they were great big ones the size of my head and so juicy, later on at night the oranges were used for the vodka. :tada::sweat_smile:

Hogmanay was our holidays season before the 80ā€™s, xmas was fun but it was no hogmanay.

Thatā€™s the problem with the worst political campaign in living memory that failed to argue a single good thing about the EU iirc.

Even Cornwall voted leave after receiving Ā£2 BILLION direct from the EU lol. Beautiful fucking Cornwall, where almost no one lives.

Youā€™d probably bet that the debacle over the Scottish seed potato exports will seal Scotlandā€™s exit from the UK soon, and no one should blame them.

Yeah of course - thatā€™s why I said seal instead of define or something. Itā€™s the nail in the coffin for the UK too, and probably other idioms I canā€™t think of right now.

Itā€™s a crying shame we canā€™t keep Scotlandā€™s warm hearted people and beautiful cities and landscape in the UK and swap them for fucking middle England and its diebitters.

Well I know I talked about the UK but I was never a big fan of it anyway tbh, even without taking the embarrassing colonial history into account.

I prefer much smaller units all being part of the EU. What does the average Londoner/Manc/Scouser/Geordie really have in common with the average villager in middle England?
