Well, I wouldn't know but you could ask the troll for his expert advice.

My point was based on these 8 words



However, if you tell me you believe that to be joined up, then obviously I have to respect your right to hold a different view of grammar from the normally accepted principles.

Its not poor grammar, a word is missing and it was saying , obviously
" obviously neither of YOU are pricks"
An opinion you have gone to extremes to prove wrong.

You are obviously pricks by your own reasoning.

Close, just one too many!

Yep OG fancies you. (and Robdon wants to watch , as usual)
Frankly I'm no liable to be able to put in much of a performance in my present physical state, I'm still a Dangerous man, but only because I constitute a trip hazard.
As to "Fancying" anyone the Female Hormone Implants used in my Cancer treatment rather shot down my ambitions in that regard if you get my drift

Well that will at least give Tom a fighting chance to come up on you, from behind, quickly, even if he is not well endowed. You might well be advised to keep drifting.

Who is being daft now then? Are you seriously suggesting that 'we' (another one for OG) go into the negotiations saying that if we don't get the deal we want, to leave, we will stay?

Just the one sentence (two actually) so should be easy enough even for you to understand?
What a cunning plan!
That should worry them, and with good cause.
By now such a reaction should actually help your case, as the EU must be itching to be rid of us by this time!!

I can accept fleccs argument that the EU might be willing to tear up the application for secession, but it is not a foregone conclusion, and it would only need one awkward customer ..say Poland, Romania say or Hungary .. far away so not likely to suffer much impact to put the kibosh on it..
Given how keen the EU would be to retain us and our money as a member, any such awkward members would soon discover what being leant on heavily means. None are likely to object to an article 50 rescindment though, simply because the likely candidates are mostly EU cash recipients, UK money.

For all we know OG might be the life and soul of the party, though maybe not the Conservative party. :rolleyes:

I gave up drinking when I found it removed spots, warts and pimples, not on me but on the women I happened to look at.

What's this "Conservative party" thing? is it something ritualistic carried out under a full moon at a crossroads with pigs heads and dangerous to the smallest parts of the Male anatomy?
Could be Fun, for those that way inclined , Zlatan and PeterL would approve I'm sure.

I'm another who doesn't drink alcohol, and we are both Remainers.

Perhaps we could start another row in this thread, accusing Brexiters of being befuddled with drink when they make voting decisions. :D
.
they don't need drink to do that they have natural talent there built in.
Thinking on an empty head is usually the source of the problem.
The Echo effect explains why some of Zlatans replies tend to be confusing as his previous conclusion often overtakes the latest version, which then arrives too late.

It's interesting that you should raise that possibility 'flecc' as I was seriously thinking, based on on some of 'PeterL's nonsensical contributions of late, that perhaps he had been in attendance earlier today along with some veterans at a service followed by a few, (maybe too many), snifters at a nearby hostelry.

Although I like to don my Crombie coat and unnecessarily shiny shoes occasionally and meet with former comrades, I am not obsessional about re-living past events and I certainly don't find any glory in being lucky enough to have survived my forays into enemy territory. Today, I had other more pressing matters requiring my attendance so I missed out on updates about who had passed since last year. I did wear a poppy though but I don't religiously wear one for weeks before 11/11.

Time now for me to have a couple of snifters!;)

Very subdued Tom, quite refreshing.

For my sins I too tend not to reminisce too much and have not been to a reunion of any description in my whole life. Long time since I went to a Pub on a regular basis, perhaps no more than a couple of times a year. Do enjoy Dinner Parties though. Enjoy your tipple, but don't over do it.
