    Who is in and who is out?

    I half suspect that for the next few months the EU will be really nasty to us, then there will be some sort of olive branch, a suggestion from within our parliament for a new referendum, and all those who its claimed have just gone OMG what have we done, will be invited to correct their mistake...

    Who is in and who is out?

    I very much doubt if the EU will allow anyone else to leave, they will make it so hard that no other country will dare to.

    Who is in and who is out?

    This is a great opportunity for our kids to embrace the world, free from the whispers that have been saying "You are a small nation, you cannot survive alone, you cannot do anything without us the EU" that has deliberately brainwashed two generations into thinking small. If we can re engage the...

    Who is in and who is out?

    The reaction of that sniveling little piece of of incandescent dogs vomit, the unelected Jean Claude Juncker is exactly why I wanted out of the institution of the EU in the first place.

    Who is in and who is out?

    The pundits say that it was the old Labour vote that swung it, to punish Cameron, so if Cameron had campaigned to leave, would the disaffected traditional labour voters have gone for remain to give C the kicking they think he deserved? Going off in a huff, only demonstrated he was the spoilt...

    Who is in and who is out?

    If the EU had disbanded its parliament, stopped setting European standards for everything, stopped sponsoring basket case economies, repealed the Euro, and put in strict border controls I might have voted to stay.

    Who is in and who is out?

    You are correct, it is time for the EU empire to fall, and enforced confederations often end in violence, we need out before we are dragged down with it

    Who is in and who is out?

    All I see is the small minded tiny offshore Island mentality fostered by EU membership, we were the greatest nation in the history of the known universe. When there was fog in the Channel the Continent was cut off. We as a nation have been relentlessly programmed to think and believe we are...

    Who is in and who is out?

    You don't believe that do you, unless there is a massive majority to stay this will not be over. We will stay as we have already seen examples of cheating and moving the goal posts, but the real clincher will be the huge postal vote that will suddenly tip the balance.

    B&Q

    I don't think we have a proper timber merchants anymore here on the IoW, I believe there is a small supplier of native timbers, but I have never ventured to find out as my ignorance would be like a neon sign. So I'm stuck with the over priced firewood that the national chains sell, or reclaimed...

    Who is in and who is out?

    Sorry to disillusion you but I've been a lowly fabricator welder all me working life which came to a premature end when the shop closed and boss refused to pay redundancy. The EU is non democratic in every fiber of its being. If you like being subject to foreign laws whilst you sit on your sofa...

    Who is in and who is out?

    Before we joined the Eu we were trading with the world and had a world outlook, since we have been turned inward and made to jump to the command of any sniveling snot-grovel of a country whose total economy is less than that of Manchester. If it takes thirty years of grinding recession as a...

    Who is in and who is out?

    At work yesterday two very friendly Poles turned up wanting some brackets made for the garage doors they are employed to fit. They spoke excellent English and it was a pleasant job to do for them, but our youngsters can't get jobs, and they are not being trained because the blue collar jobs are...

    Who is in and who is out?

    If we remain in the EU we will be shackled to a rotting corpse, if we leave we can and must accelerate its demise, freeing ourselves and others from what is the least democratic European organisation since the fall of the Third Reich. Second and third rate countries use it as a method of...

    Who is in and who is out?

    All migrants should do 3 years of some form of unpaid National Service, be taxed at a higher rate of income tax, unless there is a strict strategic need for their skills and employers should pay a foreign employee tax. I want us out and to work hard to engineer the brake up of the EU.

    Wacky new form of measurement.

    We won an empire under the imperial system and lost it under the metric. Am I missing something about twenty inches and a half, BTW.

    Wacky new form of measurement.

    I thought mix and match measurements was standard practice

    RCD keeps tripping out

    Whilst not ruling rodents out they would very brave critters we have three cats and a Lakeland terrier, and most of the wiring for the kitchen is built in, not looping into the cavity as I believe was the old practice. All running nicely at the moment.

    RCD keeps tripping out

    I have plugged the 3 items back in one by one and all is well so far. Funny thing is I had never got up to eye level with that unit to read the 'sockets' label, so I have never given a thought to try it. Thanks for your support everyone

    RCD keeps tripping out

    In the process of taking the picture I realized the one switch I hadn't tried was the socket switch on the left, so I flicked that off and on and then put the RCD switch on the right back up, and hey presto it has remained up and on.
