Re: What are you doing today ??
I hope your right. It is very strange as nothing like that happens here. I'll pop back tomorrow (it's about 5 mins walk) and see if it's still there.StMarks wrote:Fwiw from what I can see from the tyre tracks, it looks like it was towed there .? -So I'm going to guess it'll be an insurance scam attempt.??C00kiemonster wrote:Helping the rozzers with their enquiries.

Ducati Hypermtard, Fiat 500 and somewhere like that to live will do me fine. Grow my own fruit and veg.

Re: What are you doing today ??
Too far from the ocean for me. I always end up feeling claustrophobic when I'm any decent distance from the coast for any length of time.
Don't know how to explain it, I just feel very uneasy without a coastline as a reference point.

In terms of living in the UK I can't get much further away from the sea than I am here.

I’ve grown up next to the sea, my first house was literally a stones throw from the sea, I feel exactly the same.D41 wrote:Too far from the ocean for me. I always end up feeling claustrophobic when I'm any decent distance from the coast for any length of time.

Somehow even though I know I rarely go to the sea it’s comforting and reassuring knowing it’s there, it’s a bit like the old mate from your childhood who lives a few streets away that you can call in anytime and he’s pleased to see you or vice versa.

Re: What are you doing today ??
Australia Day here
Another giant slip & slide is under construction at Jess’ place.
My biggest job today will be balancing my alcohol intake at a point where I DON’T think jumping on the slip and slide or one of the numerous dirt bikes becomes a good idea.

or this for a FIFTH of the price or the price of a car. Enough space to move into and then spend a few grand doing the rest up how you want itduke63 wrote:Would make it worse still if we moved in.

Re: What are you doing today ??
The UK economy is only kept solvent by continuously increasing house prices.
I can still see us selling up at some point and moving to France.

Re: What are you doing today ??
I agree with Kwacky. It will still be possible. Just not so easy and probably a bit more expensive.
Its just that it will no longer be a right as we are no longer EU citizens. Maybe.![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/emoticon-0105-wink.gif)
