I did and was greatly disappointed

I remember tarmac starting grids and do not recall any probs, for that matter I do not recall "gardening" at the start ever being a problem in those days

Think the book may have been called Star of the Sea

As it happens I agree that it is not necessary for all TV and Radio to carry this exclusively there are enough other Channels available. This sort of reaction happens with other events as well but perhaps not to this extent.

The intransigence on both sides is beyond belief. I may have posted this before and I am not quite sure which way it was but in the Belfast Branch of a large company where I worked a protestant refused to let a catholic girl do his typing for him ( possibly the other way round) but you will get the point

Quite right but most of those including Biden hold IMO preconceived ideas of the situation. There was a book some years ago ( can't remember the title now ) where the author coming from the Catholic side said that he was brought up to believe it was all the fault of the British and what my mother would have referred to as "The ascendancy" the book showed a very balanced view of the rights and wrongs from both sides.

I think most would concur

Unless you are Irish or have an Irish Background it is impossible to understand the thinking on either side of this conflict and even then it is difficult. Religious dogma from both perspectives have a lot to answer for.

Would agree with that . but there is a time and place

A totally unnecessary comment IMO

A predictable post many may think.

Certainly got ours very early, a great improvement

Thing is Tesar Racing voted leave and then too late realized he had been in error . The winding up of his business and loyal employees losing their jobs being a bleak reminder. Steve Shovlar voted remain but thought his business would remain largely unaffected , but even that now seems to be not the case.

My brother in law and sister in law voted leave: (1) T hey are unelected and unaccountable (2) We should have control of our borders. All true but still fail to see how we are better off out. Despite what Brexiteers think we remainers do not think and have never thought that the EU was a paragon of virtue indeed in many ways it is deeply flawed. Despite the above in a country with little or no British owned industry , it is difficult to see how we are better off out , or indeed just what are the trade deals we can make when we have no home owned industry.

What I said was UK's leading Heart & Lung Hospital!!
