Happy Brexo!

Yes, it does seem to be coming next Thursday the 31st: Brexoween,
Hallowit, take your pick, that confluence of Halloween and a dry Brexit.
Contingency plans have been enacted to stop complete blockage at English ports:

I am sympathetic, but here in Canada we do manage to tax things differently and
overcharge each other between regions without erecting barriers. The secret: we
are all in the same country, so there is always recourse if anyone feels wronged.
Does eat away at one's time on this green earth, but it works. And the political class
have an inexhaustible source of material for making promises.

No girl, you can't stay. From the comments, one gets that many feel you
should be loosing a few, and I mean stone, here. Healthy at any size does
not mean healthy at any weight for your size.

The real bottom line though is that this routine - albeit cute and funny - does
not pass the Citizenship exam. The EU has reached the point of trying
to define a sense of European identity that 'travels'. 🐱‍👤
