How's The Weather

the european beaurocrats keep trying to make us change but we won t be beaten on it - you can still go into a supermarket/greengrocers and buy a pound of apples, potatoes, ham or whatever and i was watching a programme earlier today where they were measuring footballers in feet and inches - never let them grind you down :teeth_smile:

belting it down with rain tonight but there's still a lot of fireworks going off round here

I love it that at least some people in the UK are ignoring the dictates coming out of the EU.

I'm a strong believer in nationalism. I think every country is unique and should stay that way. Keep defending your God-given sovereignty and ignore those clowns in Belgium.

I personally would love to see the UN dissolved. Or failing that, I wish the US would withdraw from that organization and kick their butts out of my country.

Stumpy,
The Sooner the U.N. Gets the Hell out of The U.S.A., The Better !

I would like to see The Good Old Days in The U.S.A. back when Men Were Men and The Woman Were Woman Just Like in the Old West !!


And let the Rest of The World Go Their own Way And Just like Duke would always Say "The U.S. For The U.S.A. And Don't Get Into My Pocket To Save The Rest Of World !!!"

Well, Bill, it's mostly like that - except in San Francisco, of course. There, you never know. :teeth_smile:

We've cooled quite a bit here too, Bill. In fact, around 6:00 AM, which is usually around the time I start stirring, it's downright chilly outside (probably somewhere in the 40s).

This is my favorite time of year for weather - bright sunshine but chill temperatures. Very invigorating.

Only been getting into the mid 30's for highs the last few days, winter has arrived I reckon

personally, i would like us to be allowed a referendum to decide if we should stay in europe or not but whichever party gets in, they say no to a referendum, i assume, because they are scared of what the result will be - anyway it is raining again here today so after a week of nice weather, normal service has been resumed

Back to the weather, please.
Politics in the appropriate thread

Anyway It's cold and raining here

Hi Ned

Yes you're right. it has been raining here most of the day. Lucky have managed to dodge the really heavy stuff.

William

Torquay is in Devon England a very beautiful part of the country with great beaches, palm trees and fabulous moors. A lot of people go there when they retire because the weather is so good.

If you look on a map of the southern part of England I live in Hampshire then you have Dorset and then Devon & Cornwall then the next stop is the US of A.

Geographical distances have never been my strong point but I suppose Kieth and I live about 250 miles apart give or take a few miles. In American terms I suppose that would make us neighbours.

Regards

Arthur

Not really, Art. Even in Texas which, as you know, is pretty big, 250 miles is a far piece to travel. For instance, our oldest son lives almost exactly 250 miles from his Mom and Dad and we manage to drive down to see him maybe twice a year. At our ages, those miles seem to get longer and longer.

When I was 25 or 30 years old, I thought nothing of driving 8 or 9 hundred miles to visit my parents quite often but sure can't do it any more.

arthur - is devon really 250 miles from where you are? living in the north, we tend to think everywhere in the south is "close" - we are, for instance, 118 miles from derby, 243 miles from london (and that takes us nearly 5 hours to get there, allowing for traffic in birmingham) i remember driving back from a holiday in france and we were tired and lost and did a round tour of bournemouth, portsmouth and southampton before we even found our motorway north

anyway, today, again has been beautiful - cold and sunny, just how an autumn day should be
