Harsh. We clearly do not have any standards whatsoever, otherwise carry on with your fine post.

Is that still a thing then, the Wam? Last time I looked it appeared to be a mishmash of advertising and scum dealers touting 2nd hand stuff.

As someone who was once lost in Iceland, admittedly only for about 30 minutes, I have some sympathy with those people. I definitely was lost though. The only other person who knew I was out there was, in fact, out there alongside me. We were both lost, and it was getting dark and cold. I wouldnāt recommend it.

That joke was made inadvertently in real time by our niece, who was nearly four, and whoād been told by her mum that Mrs VB and I were in Iceland. On the next shopping trip she asked why they hadnāt seen us yet, given that they were nearly at the checkout

Are you impugning that Andyās jokes are on par with a 4 year old.
If so I think youāre being overly generous.

Definitely not but the piece had a subtext of this being another reason some Europeans want us out of the eu, which seemed a bit rich when they were employed (authorised and abetted) by a German bank
Daughter on the phone to me: Thereās a load of us going to Dover tomorrow to protest the fucking Nazis on the beach. You wanna come?
Me: I canāt. Iām helping one of your nephews with some school work.

Me: Please donāt get arrested.
Daughter: You did loads of times.
Me: Fair enough

Tell her to go in the morning, before the rain really gets started. I was rather hoping the self-appointed border guards would get the thunder and lightning and drenching weāre promised before dawn. But the forecast suggests itāll have petered out to ordinary rain by the time it gets to Dover.
