    Price impact of the "deal"?

    That's exactly what I meant about failure to exploit, and the examples are numerous, from hovercraft to wind turbines. We chose many wrong courses to create our comprehensive failure, none due to the EU. .

    Price impact of the "deal"?

    The utter nonsense is your insistence that the EU has caused our problems, and it's obvious to me that you are too young to know the whole situation well enough. I'm not too young and watched appalled throughout the 1950s and '60s as all our industries, bicycle, motorcycle, car, truck and bus...

    It's very obviously already happening and I've posted as such. And also evidence of, some not ever using the vaccicne they are getting or using it deliberately out of the prescribed order to advantage favoured people like NHS management. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No, no, no! Not with the current utterly stupid way of designing apps so they can't be used via computers. The government claims of 95% mobile phone coverage are a nonsense and WiFi is often no substitute. A sizeable proportion of our population have no coverage as witness my area IN LONDON...

    Price impact of the "deal"?

    Utter nonsense. Germany is an EU member and lacks these imaginary problems. They do better because they are better at competing in almost all spheres than we are. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All I can say at 84 is that if given the option of dying now in this 24 hour period or living two or three more years, I'd have no hesitation in choosing to go right now. .

    Which mounting point for a bike trailer is most secure?

    My Dutch panniers have the canvas as double walls, meaning a thin pocket at each face. It was supplied with thin and light plastic panels which when inserted making them box shaped so that is an option which i've always used. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The word rapidly is the key. We have long been in the game of prolonging life and in conseqence prolonging the suffering. Ergo, all in the name of medical advance and achievement we all too often do wrong. I saw this at first hand with both my parents, dying at 78 and 88 respectively...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    But that isn't important, I had my philosophy on life and death completely sorted 64 years ago. Life has no fixed span, every life lived is a complete life. Everything prior and post that life is missed, from the beginning of time to its end, so we are all deprived or not deprived. Since...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Snag is though OG, these figures show we have enough people to last nearly a 100 years without population decline: "There were 517,148 deaths registered in England and 33,469 in Wales during the first 11 months (January to November) of 2020." What that shows is that the deaths are almost...

    Which mounting point for a bike trailer is most secure?

    The trailer weighs 14 kilos, but it's carried fridges, freezers and heavy cookers so is easily strong enough. It didn't take long to make, stripping the ladders was the toughest part since their alloy rivet material needing drilling out was surprisingly hard. The rubber band has never broken...
