Is that another statement of your imminent departure from this thread?
Last time, you didn't stay away very long.....well, not long enough for me anyway!

Indeed it would.......and for those who cannot afford 'Dignitas', it certainly offers a buzz on the way out!

But it took Network Rail to find yet another type.

Does this give anyone a clue as to why the British establishment and their paid lackeys want out of the EU?

You have called Tories scum, leavers idiots,Tillsin, myself and Woosh racists ( and myself a troll ) and alikekened the Queen to Myra Hindley. Your replies to Woosh and Peterl have been disgusting. . You are a great advert for leaving.
And by the way where does your aggresive , vindictive attitude leave your opinions of Tony Benn..a eurosceptic and socialist...Was he an idiot ??? Or perhaps Cameron is your hero ??
Just tone it down for goodness sake Tom.

The British establishment wanted to remain. ( well the Tories did)
Lets hope not flecc. We should be able to express opinions without resorting to war ??? I really think Tom would take up arms against leavers,...and Tories...and Royalists...and Trolls...but fair point...Now then Zlatan, all's fair in love and war, and this thread sure is all out warfare!

You left out - Initially press ganged by Heath then lied to by Wilson.
Agreed, I've made exactly this point, but it didn't stop me knowing that what I voted for was for increasing union. As much as the politicians, the public were the problem through not taking any interest beyond their own little sphere. Surely even back then we knew that politicians routinely lie to get their own way, so what they say needs checking?

Don't worry about the Daniel bit... It is actually correct... My keyboard stuttered when I was enrolling. At my stage in life, I am all in favour of European standards, and so would you if you tried to do plumbing on old houses. There is a slight but important difference in the thickness of copper tubing and their olives ....( I much prefer to use compression fittings) for piping purchased in Ireland, in England .. including NI and France. ..and maybe different also in other countries. The wrong combinations will leak.
I am constantly reminded of the mars spacecraft which deployed it's chute 1 metre underground, because of a mismatch between subcontractors working in Imperial or US measurements and others in metric.
I won't speculate as to why people trade insults... Though in fairness you yourself are not behind the door. My tendency, with few exceptions is to play the ball not the man...
Don't for goodness sake change, that would reduce your entertainment value!

Apart from the one's who wanted to leave of course, meaning about half?

But we have eventually reached the final point, after being denied by politicians a voice on previous Treaty changes, of being unable to fool all of the people all of the time and the people have spoken - we are leaving the EU.
I now prefer push fit...O rings etc...Done well they last for years, never leak and sections can be removed , without spanners and stressing pipes...no problems going copper to plastic...you must use the little aluminium inserts tho... Plumbers hate the stuff...its putting them out of business...
I,m still searching for my half inch metric spanner...
Actually having a few problems with an American foil system I,ve just bought...Head is tapped to accept what looks like m6 bolts...but they aren,t...some American thread...had to buy bolts from states.... American Gallons are quite an anomaly too...where on earth did they come from...???

Fear not, or at least as long as that malicious old fart remains spouting his rubbish and throwing insults.

Both gallons had their origin in the Winchester bushel centuries ago, but that was refined independently by both lands. The end result is that the US gallon is some 20% smaller than ours and they have different numbers of fluid ounces. Both have 32 gills per gallon, but the US gallon has 4 fluid ounces per gill, the Imperial gallon 5 fluid ounces per gill.

Leaks neither does the all copper system provided the matching pipes and olives are used. They are more to
Tolerant of the external fitting so one can easily buy 1/2 inch couplers and bends in France which mate happily with irish or .uk fittings ...provided the olives and pipes are correct.. . Reading this it sounds smutty....
I gave used the modern aluminium composite piping system on one circuit. It works fine provided good fittings are used... tends to work out more expensive. Piping cheaper fittings more expensive.. so only better when there are long runs of tubing.
