Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

It took UK 47 years for UK to be dragged down by EU, now you guys expect everything to happen overnight, despite all the bad will and total lack of cooperation from Macron, Mutti Merkel et al...... and Theresa May was batting for the other side as well - wasted so much time. But it may help if stuff that is also happening in other countries did not get blamed on Brexit, USA, Poland and Germany especially short of lorry drivers as well - and most other European countries have shortages.

No need to close the thread but we need to get back to mainstream moaning!

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Were the benefits clear 47 years ago? And if so, after how long?
Oops regular moaning...erm , how polarising everything in the UK/news seems to be. Brexit, Vaccines , there's probably loads more examples...or maybe it's just those two topics!

Here here! Brexit has happened and there is nothing that can change that now, as the people voted for it, whether by fair means or fowl (depends on your point of view), but it's done now. So can we all just park it and finally move forward please? I'm just damned sick of the moaning and bitching from both sides of the fence.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Off out for a spin on the bike today. Not been out since early September and what a change in the weather. Vents on helmet and jacket closed and jacket liner installed. Brrr.

...but isn't London practically on the Equator? - in NE Lincs we're approaching the Arctic Circle and I think Bibio is at the North Pole.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Actually the heating came on by itself this morning.
Ride was cool but I dressed for it, got as low as 8°c but despite no rain forecast we got dumped on in Whitchurch. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk
