    Well, this was always on the cards once we left. We always said it would be a matter of time and as usual, in time, we shall be proved right. We'll be waiting to strike a deal with you guys. See you soon, Germans.

    Regards
    Brexit Britain

    The upcoming German election could spell doom for the EU as voters in Germany turn away from Brussels. Ursula Munch, a German political expert, warned that the "whole German public" is fed up with funding the European project. Speaking to TRT's Roundtable, Ms Munch warned that "the German public has changed their attitudes towards their European Union".

    That does me for the month, mate. Works out about £45 a week. I just top up through the week with my milk, bread and any little extras that I might need which costs very little. I spent £13 on beer with this order because I've got a few lads coming over tomorrow for Super Saturday.

    4 of these for £10 from Ocado. Can't go wrong, imo.

    I paid £5 for 3 bottles of Desperados for my little brother. I bought 10 cans of Corona Extra for £8, for myself. They're only the 330ml cans but I rarely drink so I'll probably be smashed and in bed after 4 tinnies.

    I haven't tried Ocado since they switched to M&S got fed up of substitutions so go to the shop these days. Ought to take a look though as M&S is the best quality you can get outside 'arrods.

    I prefer fillets. No ifs, no buts, they're the tenderest cuts.

    Yep. The food is quality. Fresh and really nice. Out of that big order they only needed to replace orange juice with bits in for a fresh orange. Not really arsed about that.

    I'm not covering my brother, he's a big drinker like the rest of the lads. That's just a little treat for him being my little bro.

    The first game kicks off at dinner time tomorrow and the sport doesn't finish until 6am the next morning. It's an 18 hour session. No way would I put my hand in my pocket and pay for all that. I'd need to remortgage my home to cover what the lads coming over tomorrow can put away.

    I've done the food, mate! I've done that big pot of scouse which is cooking now.

    We don't expect freebies up north. That's just you lot down South.

    Murder of Lynette White
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Lynette_White

    I've just finished watching this on TV
    The police bullied five guys - 2 were found not guilty and three were found guilty
    The guilty guys were sentenced to life but they were freed on appeal
    With DNA being available to the police a guy was arrested and pleaded guilty to murder
    Eight police were charged with corruption but the case was thrown out because paperwork went missing
    Two weeks later the paperwork was found!

    Well that's cleared that up.

    So, how many lads are coming over? Don't suppose you could provide a list of names? First names or nicknames will do.

    Empty shelves where there should be more choice of spring water <yikes>

    Serious question: has anyone seen empty shelves in their local supermarket or had any "difficulty finding essential items"?

    They are determined to provoke a rush of panic-buying but it's not working from what I can see.
    The petrol station thing is real but how many times have we seen that happen. They don't have the capacity to handle a sudden rush of sales.
