<t>gmc, I originally voted to not join the European Common Market because I could see that the so-called 'Common Market' would not be just for trading purposes. I could see the writing on the wall that Europe would become political and would 'rule' all the member nations and bring about laws (I beli...

<t>I AM SO FED UP WITH BREXIT AND ALL THE BICKERING, TUB THUMPING, FINGER-POINTING, FIST SHAKING, BLAMING, DIRT DIGGING. VISCIOUS ARGUMENTS, THREATS, AND HATE-FILLED AND VITRIOLIC RANTINGS. There was a referendum. The general public voted to leave Europe. There is no future in arguing and...

Yes it was an April Fools joke. So glad that Mr. spot appreciated the intended humour ! Glad to see some of you taking it in good part and hopefully with a smile. Sad that some were a little miserable about it though, as it was certainly not intended to be serious.

<r>News just coming through that as there are so many computers owned by the public as well as business, the government are proposing to introduce a special computer tax to help towards extra funding for the NHS !!! <E>:mad:</E> Gawd computers cost enough as it is !!They haven't stated ho...

<r>Thanks Zap ! Good to see you out and about, and enjoying the company of your family. I hope everybody is OK and particularly yourself - I trust you are looking after yourself and keeping safe. Everything here is now rapidly getting back to normal, for the time of year. That very cold '...

<r>Relieved that the weather seems to be improving. Our boiler karked on Wednesday so we were without any central heating since then. <E>:(</E> :yh_ooooo. I contacted several boiler repairers, but no joy as they were all pulled out of the place. I decided to see if my nephew Richard could...

<t>I can remember when I bought 'The latest' kick ass pc, It was the biggest thing available at the time in the UK ! I can remember installing it in our 'office' and setting everything up before my son returned from visiting a friend - he had no idea at all that I was intending to get a PC, let alon...

<r>Well I have become the proud owner of a very nice laptop. An HP OMEN 7i (4 core), with a few TBs ! A bit of a 'kick ass' machine ! I think I shall enjoy using this particular laptop ! My other one was a Toshiba and it must have been 10 years old if it was a day, so it's no surprise to me that it ...

<t>I've just read through this thread and enjoyed imagining the wonderful celebrations, so it comes as such a shock to read of such a tragic ending to a wonderful and joyful event. My heartfelt thoughts and sympathies go to you and all your lovely family. How strong the son was over it all, despite ...

<t>Well hello me !!! :wah: Hello Gill !!! :yh_tong2:yh_smiley Just to say that I got another flippin' iffy email today, so I've just deleted it after I'd had a quick peep to see what the email was. No I didn't open any links - i just looked in surprise and deleted it straight away. I just ain't inte...

<t>I'm a little concerned at the moment. In the last few weeks, on a fairly regular basis like every 3 or 4 days, I have been sent strange emails. I hasten to add that there is no way that I would open these, and in fact I have deleted them without opening them because I really do not trust that the...

<t>I take it you are referring to stuff that is illegal in UK ? If so, I would like to point out to anybody interested that before the war (WWII) a herb was quite legal - my father was a pharmacist and he told us this many years ago. So it was used in medicine then, so I just don't understand why it...

<t>I'm sorry, Bryn, to disagree with you, but dogs do have variable intelligence as do human beings.

Well I've had a quiet special day and my hubby has been very kind, as he always is ! I'm going to have a lasagne for my tea, cooked by my talented hubby. So my day is going nicely thank you very much, oh and I think there is tiramisu for 'afters'
