My old man left us 3 kids a 27 Morris ligbt van, i wish it could have been a Nash, they were at least 10 years more advanced at the same era

you got left a van—— you were FECKIN lucky Pilgrim—-My father left us a £412:37p and a bloody miserable tight arsed stepmother !

Weren't they chain driven ?

I think it was too—- but as usual, the “ colonials” copied it— moved it to a classy location—- with neighbours like Barney and Betty, ?
Same thing with the Miles Master X17—- out of Shoreham -By-Sea—- gave it to Chuck Yeager and claimed it as their own.
Its taken them forty years to catch up with the CONCORDE—— colonials still haven’t forgiven us for that one!

Whichever way you cut it Pilgrim——— England and America—— the English and American people have been ( and still are) inexorably joined at the hip! Ok, so the colonials took the English language and mutilated it beyond recognition into an American version all of their own——- given the language “DIALOGUE” and “ACCENTS”———- good example is the vast difference in accents between NEW JOISEY AND TENNESSEE .
Its no bad thing—- nobody wants to be stereotyped, so simply “speaking English “ doesn’t mean you have an ENGLISH accent ?
Gene Thipedeux had for me,the hardest accent to understand !
Was a year before I understood what the hell it was Pruett was actually talking about !

Yep, so after Brexit there will be some good trading going on

Theres always been good trading going on between the USA and Great Britain Pilgrim—— it’s just like any other love affair—— it has its rocky moments !

Breathed a big sigh of relief today when I FaceTime”d Mark—- didn’t realise it was Labour Day and he was home, safe and sound.
Told me the Bahamas was taking a terrible beating—- 200 mph winds—- and the centre of the Dorian is right over the islands and staying there. Crazy to think he was there only a week ago with Sam.

I am sitting here looking at my local weather radar. Just a few miles east of here,well within the range of the radar that thing is spinning. After a lifetime watching hurricanes it is spooky.

I’m fortunate enough never to have been involved with a hurricane so I can only imagine what it must be like to be anywhere near one. Mother Nature can be more deadly than ever any man made device .
I still remember “Katrina” and what it did in Louisiana, and the Tsunami that hit the Maldives, maybe living in England is no bad thing after all.

Been an an amazing year for sweet peas—- we have had sweet peas every day for the last ten weeks.
Still don’t like the fancy hybrids as much as the old fashioned—- heavily scented type we’ve always grown.

Looks like Boris is going to have to swallow his dick—- he didn’t allow for the dishonesty of his colleagues in parliament!
He had the idea that he could deliver a no deal Brexit—- was never going to happen with so many “remainders” in the House of Commons.
Bastards sent Teresa May to Brussels with an empty gun for three years, they were never going to let Boris upset the apple cart.
Plan all along was to eke out time and never make a decision—- and crawl back into the EU through the back door.
Politicians are more cunning than any hungry animal on earth ! Especially ours!

[jackiewilson]

Boris really crapped his bucket full this time—- could be the shortest time any prime minister spent in office !
Three votes—- three losses—- can’t even call for an election—- plus —- his no deal Brexit is out the window !
Boris—- you’ve been suckered—— Crafty Old Nigel Farage is waiting in the wings like a Condor—— when he sees the opportunity—— he’ll pounce—— biggest predator in modern day politics—— remainders have been planning this for three years.
Good chance of still being in the EU this time next year—— it’s all turning to worms !

I thought you guys had a nationwide referendum on that question? Does your constitution allow the government to void the results without another election?

Oh yes, we had a closely fought referendum which was won by the “Leave” the EU’s.
Unfortunately most of the Tory MP’s did not want to leave so they have quietly “Scuttled” every move ever made to get a deal with Brussels—- Teresa May had good intentions— but was sent into a nuclear war bearing a bow and no arrows.
Boris thought he was gods gift to Britain and vowed to leave the EU with or without a deal—— those sneaky “remain MP’s decided this could not be allowed to happen, so have made Boris look exactly what he Is “. A BUFFOON.
Corby is a worthless piece of crap who has been screaming for a general election for three years—— but now realises he has no chance of winning so he scuttles the plan.
There will be a general election before November—— but not before the date for leaving the EU has been extended!
Man to watch is NIGEL FARAGE—— English Public is just pissed off enough to make him prime minister and then the excreta will hit the fan?????

Uk heading back to post maggie days where the politicians forgot they represent their voters.
