Heyup........ Independence Day!

Well I'm really upset about leaving (purely personal reasons - healthcare, taxes, etc) but Jim is all for it so you can imagine what it was like at breakfast...... He can cook his own tea tonight 

Never mind, the sun will come up tomorrow, 

Well as most of you know I was against Scottish independence as was I against exiting Europe, but that said how do I apply for a Scottish passport,,, we're doomed, doomed I say...

Join the queue to become Irish but you'll have to wait a bit, loads of others ahead of you

If I say Feck often enough does that give me right to one...

GoogleTrends said UK searches for "getting an Irish passport" jumped more than 100% after the Brexit result came through.

Glasshouses and stones

I have said all along that I'd live to see Scottish independence.

You jest now, but watch this space...

Mmm Sadiq Khan and London rejoining the EU So its go it alone with Scotland, Off you go 

where did you hear that?

From the BBC

For many English voters, this was an opportunity to wave the flag of St George and restore a sense of national pride. Many resented what they saw as special treatment for other parts of the UK, particularly Scotland. In some respects, the vote for Brexit was a vote for English nationalism.
It was also a vote to stop foreigners and foreign ways changing the character of neighbourhoods and communities.
Anxiety about immigration is one manifestation of a broader fear of globalisation - an alien force that makes people uneasy or frightened, emerging unbidden and unwanted from the strange planet London.
The rural/urban divide is matched by a generational divide: young people largely supported Remain because they tend to be unafraid of modernity and embrace difference; older people largely supported Leave because they are more comfortable with what is familiar and are less at ease with change.

Huffington post that come with Talk Talk,

well i never expected that result. even though i voted for it. it's going to be hard for the next few months/years maybe. but i am confident we have made the right decision. the bureaucrats in brussels are so arrogant it was untrue. that was probably the main reason i voted out. but it's onwards and upwards for us. but i think we are the first domino to fall on the eu bandwagon

Agree with that 

Onwards and upwards. Where have I heard that before? In pub tonight appeared 80% voted out, but there were one or two dissenters. We had a good debate over it anyhow. No fisticuffs.    We do have a token Scotsman, he voted out apparently. Probably because he wasnt wearing a football shirt...............

All of Europe flapping today, We lead and the others are ready to join us,
Seems people dont really know what they were voting for, but they are that angry they want change,
all the money men took a bashing because they put their shirts on a remain, Wrong,
So the scaremongers say we are doomed and the pound isnt worth a carrot, But getting back to a JCB
So your man in Spain wanted to buy a JCB for say £100k and it was going cost him €125k but if the euro is level with a pound now then it will cost him €100k today and JCB still gets his £100k, If we wanted to buy something from the euro zone we wont do it because its too expensive now,
Also if a family have £1k to spend on holiday thats it no matter what the exchange rate is,
Euroe zone loses out again, so very soon Great Britain will be great again the rest of europe can go shite,
Now we need to get our borders under control sharpish, Teresa May roll your sleaves up,
any crooks in our prisons waiting on their human rights to be heard your bus is waiting outside, Get on the fecking thing NOW !!!

If I remember correctly we used to get 240 pesetas for £1 and a pint was 70 centimos down on the old Costa Brava. And 10 francs to £1 when I used to cruise over the channel on the old baccy runs with ferry tickets for a £1 from the Sun newspaper. Good old days.

Says your 62 mair like me thinks 82

We are now in the driving seat and all them foreigners especially them Krauts are messing their pants, so we may take a wrong turn now and then but we are calling the shots, First slap a ban on anybody coming over without a valid passport, the French will then have to control their borders before even getting in, then it should work its way from wence they came, FRO
