    If Labour do decide to block May’s deal, it’s not as if there are many alternatives for their Exit supporters.

    UKIP have gone all EDL (a bit of an option but not enough to lose seats) and the Tories only have May’s deal.

    No women tested. If these riders did the modern fad of identifying as a gender they are clearly not, no testing & medals all round. Win.

    An official is required to be in the room at the time of ‘providing sample’. No women officials were sent, so no women could be tested. But, you know, go you.

    We know from speaking with some of our customers that there is a lot of scamming going on. We do not deal with scammers and if that is your intention you have come to the wrong place.

    Right……….

    Net long-term international migration was estimated to be +230,000 in year ending (YE) June 2017

    165700 homes built in England (only) in 2017. Would it be safe to assume at least 2 people per house? That would be 331400 bedspaces ignoring Wales, Scotland and NI.

    Are the action figures included for a porn version?

    It’s generally 5 years before you can claim UK benefits as a EU national.

    It’s all very funny actually, the country has lost it’s collective marbles.

    It’s worst than that. Last night having listened to Tony Blair I found myself thinking he spoke a lot of sense and wasn’t that bad after all.

    So a political knee capping.

    Perhaps the Scots will be kind enough to have the same approach as the island of Ireland. Anyone born either side of the border can get a Scottish (EU) passport. Now that would be excellent.

    Blue passport and a nice long queue for those who want to be/stay non-eu. Freedom of movement etc for the rest.

    My Grandad survived Gallipoli. He has shot by a sniper, the force of which knocked him into a ditch. A mortar landed where he had been standing and killed his mates.

    Labour current position;

    https://labour.org.uk/manifesto/negotiating-brexit/

    A Labour government will end the uncertainty for our farmers and food producers by securing continued EU market access allowing British farmers and food producers to continue to sell their products on the Continent.

    Freedom of movement will end when we leave the European Union.

    Looks like it’s been recently updated but still wants freedom for goods but not people. EU have already said “ez, ne, no, ingen, neniu, non, óchi, níl aon, nē, nie, nu, keine”.

    Their position doesn’t work therefore can only be seen as idealistic (and as a Labour voter I really wish it did).

    My tips;

    Avoid GoldCar.

    Get third party insurance.

    Usually use Kayak to check prices.

    On that note, one of my favourite near- perfect translations was from a French colleague who would push for updates, saying “I am being hardly chased by the customer”

    My Spanish wife thought it was ‘I can’t be asked’ (for I don’t have time to do that at the moment) for quite a while..

    Yeti 5 alloy here with Revs RCT3s set to 130mm.

    Works really well. Buttery smooth and manuals really easily.

    Remember if you buy stuff in duty free it has to go inside the bag too….. rules are rules 1 bag only or £40 please

    not correct. Stuff bought at the airport in plastic bag does not count as carry on allowance.

    But yes Ryanair are buggers for bag sizes / weight.

    I’ll get it weighted tomorrow when I go to the LBS for the new saddle.

    Just did a lap of Cwncarn this morning. Thought so far;

    Great frame. Happiest when going as fast as possible.
    Revelation RCT3s are much smoother than the RLTs I had before. Have them set at 130mm travel but only used 100mm (need to play with the setting). Now I understand what ‘buttery smooth’ means.
    Loving the 2×10 set up.
    Loving the XTR trail pedals. Much more support than the old ones.

    negatives;
    I need to get fitter .
    Should have got the turquoise one.

    Just fine. Wouldn’t go any bigger. Have heli taped the side of the swing arm to stop mud wearing a grove on the inside.
