Thanks for that. I was racking my brain trying to remember what the charter boats used to use.
Why Rees-Mogg is still voting with his feet

i suspect it has more to do with loss of industrial capacity and capability. The UK is currently the world leader in small sat tech, if we can not bid for EU work and decide to rely entirely on the US then we will lose a strategic UK capability.
However, I suspect that the UK will make any UK system a military project (unlike the EU system) and that the MOD will be underfunded from the outset. It will end up a cluster fuck.

That is excellent. I presume the panel where Linus asks for Santa to deliver a mahoosive boot to the trouser-zip of JRM, BoJo, Corbyn, the DUP and especially Gove fell off due to the weight of expectation.

Letās be honest about whatās really driving Brexit: bigotry

Thereās a cottage in Mumās village owned by a dodgy character who also owns and rents property in Spain to expats.
The cottage had water running down the walls 30 yrs ago when friends billeted a tradesman in it, and moved him to the local pub after a single night. Since then almost no-one has lived there, barring some Vietnamese people who ran a cannabis farm direct from the mains for a few months. Itās fit only to be condemned.
An elderly couple without family, tenants of Mr Dodgy in Spain and both in their 80ās, felt compelled to return because of failing health (heās a double amputee) and residence status uncertainty. No dwelling could possibly be more unsuitable for a wheelchair. Iām surprised he gets through the front porch, so must live in just the one front room.
After six months in this outer circle of hell, theyāve been offered disabled friendly social housing from another part of rural Northumberland.
Barring my natural sympathy for those with health problems, Iām tempted to comment; if the country is so full up already returning expats should be amongst those to be turned away at the borders.
Especially those who can vote.
I think the jibe was referring to the potential of a Gammon flavored No Deal Brexit.
In our house, we sing āIām eating human casseroleā.
Might be quite apt soon.

Thatās a bloody rugby song, barbour required 
The rugby and cricket boys have adopted it instead of the dirge that is the ānational anthemā.

My local MP giving it full volume this afternoon. Ā£500 per hour.
Out of interest, according to his account, why would we ever want to leave the backstop?
Access to the SM & customs union, no contributions, retaining control of our fishing grounds, freedom to do trade deals elsewhere.
What have I forgotten?
I love how the DUP are joining in on the contempt of parliament proceedings against the attorney general. I guess we have a minority government now!
