  1. I might try that.
  2. Materialised? Virtually none of it. Too many to pick apart individually but ‘Expanding Trade Horizons’ isa good place to start. Brexit has shrunk our trade horizons beyond even the direst predictions. I don’t see how looking at Australia, New Zealand or Africa can possibly replace trading with somewhere that’s only an hour or two’s flight away. A European visit is a day trip. These others are a week. Besides, there was nothing about being an EU member that prevented us dealing with these far off sunny uplands anyway.
  3. Whoa! Hold on there for a moment. The referee is always correct. Especially in matters of a subjective nature.
  4. A long while ago I read somewhere that investigators could tell whether a deceased person was left or right handed by the difference in the number of fillings in the left and right of the jaws. A right handed person brushes the left side more than the right and the left will have fewer fillings. I rushed to the mirror to examine mine and found out that I am right handed.
  5. And you probably know that a chef’s hat with 100 folds means that he/she knows 100 different ways to cook an egg
  6. Caviar, I presume?
  7. Could you design any of them? Thought not.
  8. So what’s your point?
  9. Really? I thought it was a case of before and after.
  10. You think? How many complicated pieces of electronic equipment are involved in this process?
  11. Agreed. So should we all eat eggs?
  12. It ends at an EU border.
  13. Especially when it ends our own freedom to move.
  14. Eh? It was an option to control those who fulfilled these criteria. Compare that to what we have now.
  15. It was never complete freedom of movement. You had to be either economically active, or a student, or economically independent.
  16. They were our laws whilst we were a member. It’s freedom of movement of labour. It is not an absolute right and some EU countries control it rigorously.
  17. Just as there’s a thin person inside every fat one.
  18. They’re not wrong.
  19. This, and he has taken a place that might have been better used by another.
  20. Shoosh. For God’s sake keep that bit quiet. We don’t want to put them off. Wait until the money’s in the bank.
  21. Further than you might think. 1.3 and 1.2 miles respectively so about half an hour. I take it you’ve never been old?
  22. We need a competent keeper now. If McCarthy burns his hand doing the ironing or something then we are in understudy territory.
  23. I’m with you here (no surprise there) but I’m going to make sure that we get there earlier on Saturday just in case.
  24. It’s designed so that you can’t. Firstly the app has blocked screenshots and secondly the QR code that it generates changes regularly so that by the time you use the QR code it’s out of date.
  25. Do we know any such side?
