    I saw a migrant on a push bike earlier on today in East Hull. Think he must have come from France, was on the wrong side of the bike path. Grrrr where's Farage when you need him

    We are off to London then Paris on Eurostar next week and admit I am a tad apprehensive, we booked ages ago but if I had known about all this and the striking french g*ts I would have just stayed in London. Still nowt can be as bad as going to Barnsley or Sheffield and encountering SYP!

    Fear that I might have been hoisted by my own petard on this one.

    For years I've been filling the car up with wine at Calais, arguing that we'd be daft not to, it's so much cheaper than back in the UK.

    This knife-edged, sharp, philosophical logic was thrown back in my face yesterday, in the Chanel shop.

    My retort of I don't think that it applies to handbags, was meet with a frosty rebuttal.

    Not from the Missus, but from the snooty Parisian madam with an eye on a decent commission.


    I resorted to Not on my credit card, you don't.

    I'll let you know how we get on, on the way back!

    Everything ran smooth as, on the way there.


    But then nobody is trying to sneak from England to France are they?

    The Challenger MBT was withdrawn from service between 1998 and 2001. Also the collective noun "fleet" does not apply to military tanks. The smallest group is a Troop (4 tanks), then a Squadron and next a Regiment. Along with other units they may then role up into Brigades and Divisions.

    It works a hell of a lot better than filling a diesel engine up with petrol.



    But it's not as good as chip fat.

    I've noticed the overwhelming majority of migrants in Calais are men. Kinda strange that only the men are fleeing persecution whilst the women and children stay in the war-torn countries. <whistle>

    All these migrants want to do is to fleece our social security system and send all the cash back home to their families. It's us mugs that end up paying whether they stay or go.:steam:

    Bengals and Canada my spelling and grammar are both poor to average unfortunately and I certainly wouldn't attempt to pull up others on the use of the English language. However,I am always looking to improve myself so your correction is duly noted thank you.
