Re: General Election 2019?

Around 14 million people if you’re interested. 14 million using food banks? You're sure about that?? !.6 million food parcels were given out during the last 6 months, google it. 14 million, sounds a bit like it's one of Diane Abbot's figures. Maybe Monty donated his food and drink purchase to one o...

Nah, not the end, maybe a dip, then up in about 100 years time.
It can't really get much worse than it has been for the last three years with no real leadership.

I would err on the side of caution and wait for the results to start coming in before you get suicidal.

Re: Free broadband for everyone

I live in a rural area and my down load speed is that bad virtually everything buffers.

Re: Prince Andrew

Other than an ill thought out friendship with a paedophile, nothing else is provable. She was a young prostitute that was well paid, nothing more. She doesn't have the look of a slave. That doesn't change the fact that he's an arrogant, overbearing, self effacing idiot who really should've known bet...

Re: Dealers struggling

I had a coffee in a BMW dealers yesterday as I was doing a job up the road from there, they haven't moved a bike this week and that's unusual, somebody buys a GS of some description every day. Car dealers are feeling it as well, as are parts suppliers. I am mulling over changing my wife's Suzuki for...

Re: General Election 2019?

The general election was being pushed by people who aren't happy with the results of the last election and want another go at it in the hope that this time it works out in their favour. That sounds like the referendum on leave or stay, keep having a referendum 'til we get a remain result. As for th...

Re: Nutz's BMW S1000XR

I am just contemplating swapping my wife's Suzuki for one of these, in the same colour as well, I have the S1000R and i think they would complement each other. I went to the Pyrenees in mid September on my BM and one of the party had an XR that was pretty quick and agile, BMW are good with customer ...
