I'm in the Euro's, Red.

Thanks for organising RD. It's quite a commitment. Well done to 3 out of 4 PD. Shouldn't you be retiring or something?

Seems to have deleted her account.

Someone is threatening to buy me a present of one. It's a nice idea but there is a Kindle App on my tablet I can use, if I wanted to read books. Would any Kindle users please advise why having a Kindle is an improvement on reading on a tablet?

To be fair to Ireland, I'm pretty certain that after hosting it a few times as 'winners', they deliberately set out afterwards not to win it. It cost too bloody much to host! Here's a fine example........ https://youtu.be/T2OEd4pLMOI

Desperate search for Brexit's failures? Jeez, if the NIP doesn't work then Brexit is an 100% failure. Many of us predicted that NI would cause it to fail. That's apart from all the other failing elements. The UK government are having to employ someone to point out the feckin' 'benefits' of Brexit, they are so hidden.

Excellent read for Brexiteers......... https://chrisgreybrexitblog.blogspot.com/2021/05/englands-dreaming.html

Given the recent story of the young Italian women being sent back to Italy having been locked up first.

Does anyone have knowledge or experience of a returning EU citizen who has settled status, having difficulty entering the UK, or not as may be the case? Just asking as at some point my wife will undoubtedly visit her family in Spain. The UK won't be issuing any cards to prove it, which in the current climate suggests they like to make things as difficult as possible for EU citizens.

Speaking of masks, Which have done a report of how they rate in terms of effectiveness. If you're going to wear a mask (and hopefully you do), you may as well wear a useful one. https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/face-masks/article/best-reusable-face-masks-awLeA3A6XoZD

I presume having a 'medical exemption' does not make it any less possible for a person to transmit the virus. In which case it shouldn't be beyond the wit of man/woman to make alternative arrangements. I appreciate some people genuinely do not want to or can't wear a mask, but that's not going to make me feel any better if I pick up the virus for a good cause. Also, those idiots who abuse the term to avoid having to wear a mask should be asked to prove it or leave an establishment. Sorry for your troubles, bartender.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

I want something to allow me to do the books for a small limited company which can also produce Annual Accounts. Something that's sort of idiot proof. Any suggestions please?

He isn't.

7 correct results in two weeks is difficult to match.

This is a couple of years old I believe, but worth watching. Irish TD (MP) speaking to Israeli ambassador. Thanks to Roger Waters of Pink Floyd for posting it.

A reshuffle doesn't necessarily equate to sackings, as most of the media would like you to believe.

I don't think posting at 6.06AM suits you Seph. You may have needed more zz's not 00's.

Why are the government pushing companies to install these?

Perhaps the people of Hartlepool aren't as thick as some portray them to be. If they didn't vote a CONservative in, what chance of getting any investment in their area from the Tories? The Tories have a habit of looking after their own. Mind you, when they fail to keep their promises, then that will be a different kettle of fish.

I reckon if I can get 42ish points I'll be in with a shout!

This is it: https://census.gov.uk/about-the-census/about-the-census-coverage-survey

Thanks BNG. Is there any obligation to facilitate this? It seems to me enough information was supplied doing the actual census.

Regarding (a), they are not NEW EU regulations. They applied to third countries prior to Brexit. The way it has been reported here by most of the media suggests the EU just made them up to spite the UK. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/feb/02/eu-rules-on-some-types-of-shellfish-leave-uk-fishermen-devastated
