  1. Yes that was at the back of my mind with some of his paintings.
  2. I don't think his paintings were bad, but I do not know much about art. There was something on tv that he suffered from depression and he was able to seek solace when he was painting. It makes you wonder what was going through his mind when he was painting if that is the case.
  3. Yes it is a ridiculous analog and nothing to do with The cosequence thread Brexit.
  4. There are reports of an explosion in the German city of Ansbach, so far one person has been killed.
  5. Yes I did say demolished, fortunately I am insured for repair and if the house has to be demolished. I thought we were talking about one house getting flooded. Berberis did not say the country's housing stock.
  6. My insurance covers the cost of putting a roof over the occupants' head while repairs are going on. I think I will just read the small print on my insurance, I am glad you asked me that question, so thank you for that.
  7. The house will have to be demolished and rebuilt into a lovely new build. It could be costly at first, but it may be worth it, a new home.
  8. I was told that the Birley Stone, on Jawbone Hill dates back to the Romans. Does any one know if this is true? I suspect it has nothing to do with the Romans.
  9. What should have been a carnival atmosphere turned into a terror attack on innocent people. My thoughts are with the victims and the people of France.
  10. I think Judge Masipa might have a secret crush on Pistorius.
  11. I know I am going off topic, but I clicked on your link and I enjoyed looking at your photos, very interesting.
  12. Who do you think told these MPs before they went out to vote that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction? MPs voted on the information that Blair gave them.
  13. Tony Blair should go down in history as the worst PM this country has had. I think he was told by David Kelly who was a scientist on biological warfare that there was no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and look what happened to him, he was discredited and he supposedly committed Suicide. The world would have been a better place if Blair had never been born.
  14. How brave theses men were. Some of them were only 16, just boys. It must have been awful sitting in the trenches waiting for the order to charge.
  15. What is that old saying, The papers can make you or break you. The media has a lot of influence on how we view politics.
  16. Where I have moved to, a new estate, there are a few polish families and all I have noticed is neighbours behaving exactly the same, shouting good morning to each other, children from both English and polish parents playing together. Nothing has changed here with regards to the Brexit Win. Are you sure the media are not exaggerating, or tying to create stories?
  17. Will it be in our interest next year when Germany and France go to the polls and there is a change of Government? ---------- Post added 27-06-2016 at 18:31 ---------- Change.com are running a petition to try and get Nigel Farage on the negotiating team. He may be better than a bunch of wily car traders. I think quite a few people have singed it.
  18. What happens to The Human Rights Act, do we still keep it or will it be open for negotiation? Also if we have to pay a tariff to trade in the EU once we leave, what about all the German Car Manufacturers, The French who want to sell their wine and cheese in this country will they also have to pay a tariff to trade with us? It will be interesting to see what the future will be for other EU countries, particularly Germany and France, they have elections coming up next year. I do not think it will be an easy win for Angela Merkel and if she is not re- elected this could be better for us, but of course this is only guess work at the moment.
  19. We are keep going on about how Brexit will affect this country, but how will it affect other EU countries? One politician has named other EU countries who may also vote to leave. So yes you are right I think others will follow, and hopefully weaken their power.
  20. I have been told that yesterday Switzerland has withdrawn their application to join the EU. If this is the case I wonder why?
