New Flats At ED Station - Be Warned! (it has a "veneer")
JohnL replied to Zak's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
This company even has a video of how they build it. http://www.eurobrick.co.uk/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIovemk6yA3AIV7RXTCh134gePEAAYAiAAEgLbr_D_BwE Suppose as long as the buyers know what they are buying. -
As the EU stated from the start there is not going to be a deep and meaningful trade deal. The offer is Norway, Canada or Nothing http://uk.businessinsider.com/theresa-may-warns-her-cabinet-there-is-now-no-chance-of-a-bespoke-brexit-deal-2018-7 if we're heading towards a Norway model then the extremist Brexiters have to be dealt with (Boris/Gove sacked, Rees-Mogg neutralised). Maybe she'll try and buy them off somehow ?

Come up to Rye Lane and get some of these pigeons SparrowHawk. Rats of the air. I'd take them down if I could catch them.

Update - Harris School pupils fighting in the street

I don't advocate it, but back in the day it was sometimes the only way to stop being bullied (school was a bit like prison back then). Although I do remember being called a f***t and saying nothing "mother: don't let them do that you should stop them blah blah" then 6 months later same thing except i go hurtling in ... grounded with a huge row on using violence. But you told me to ... no I didn't. -
"Corbyn read out a message he had received from Andrew, a Honda employee in Swindon, who expressed worry about his post-Brexit prospects. The Labour leader rebuked Tory MPs who were barracking him, saying: ?I would not laugh if I was you. These are real people with real jobs and real concerns.? After May accused Labour of seeking to ?frustrate Brexit?, Corbyn responded: ?I doubt that Andrew from Swindon is alone among skilled workers where he goes on to say: ?I will hold the prime minister and her party culpable if my job and those of my colleagues at Honda end up being under threat.??" Corbyn's just waiting for someone to challenge him on the existence of these people :)

School scraps stopped when one went down in my memory (and others would stop it if it didn't) - and they were normally at the back of a school field (so softer landing) -

Is this just your classic school scrap then with everybody clustering round to watch (and once someone goes down it's over) or is it worse. -

I was reading SportsJoe LOL :) but it is possible (If both teams win the next games it doesn't make nuch difference apparently as they're so far ahead - if either lose it all changes of course https://www.sportsjoe.ie/rugby/ireland-rugby-world-rankings-2-165222

No problem with them shouting "out the way" but that sort of abuse is (a) nasty (b) likely to provoke. Wonder if he'd do it to a 6ft 6 inch rugby playing guy :) (that's not me by the way)

Ireland could now reach number 1 in the world rankings by beating the All Blacks by more than 7 points in the autumn.

Belgium vs England will be good and competitive. Also remember this twitter conversation - Farage: Belgium isn't a real country Verhofstadt: You just wait until we play you.

Lord Adonis and Nigel Farage on The Piers Morgan :) Breakfast show this morning. Not only did they agree on some things but they wore very similar jackets.

Changes to your train times from Monday
JohnL replied to A Cinderella Line's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
bodies found on the line :( https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/loughborough-junction-three-people-dead-after-being-hit-by-train-at-south-london-railway-station-a3865371.html -
Wales up to 3rd in the world rankings after beating Argentina who were by all accounts dreadful. Crazy choke hold by Ross Moriarty at the end. I liked this comment in the Guardian "It's surprising really, his father and uncle were very well disciplined players who would be appalled by that kind of thing"

Trump admires the way North Korean citizens treat Kim and wants US citizens to treat him in a similar way. Of course if you treat Kim with disdain or mock him within North Korea you and your family will get carted off to the camps. I actually wonder if that's what Trump has in mind as he must know what happens.

The Portugal vs Spain game was fun to watch on a Friday in the pub :)

Taking money out of a bank with menaces is the same as robbery (effectively once I was forced to give my pin up once - the police can't do anything but the bank can). It's a crime and the bank WILL reimburse surely. Edit: What I mean is there was no way she authorised the transaction - she let it happen because they were with her threatening her. -
