maths is short for math(ematic)s in my book and besides, the yanks can't even say "for God's sake" in the right order so bollocks to them .

Backpedalling ? When ? Sorry I was just laughing at your remark that 1000 people would never come across in one day because they'd never get the demand for it. That's really really funny. A cup final or a playoff final is a slightly different scenario, if you've been lucky enough to go . I...

Credit is harder to obtain than since when ?

Hahahahaha. 1000 don't want to come over in one day . Hilarious . Two years ago you'd have laughed at your magical 13. Did you think up that Coventry city analogy all by yourself ? And it's maths, not math. Tosser

Completely irrelevant. Wishful thinking on your part. Most people are far more concerned with coronavirus and their job security as a result of it . Most people aren't really thinking about brexit right now. Except you perhaps .

You've got a different figure to the 20k mentioned earlier. Just to humour me after your 13-people-in-on-day-in-one-boat figure what's 232 per day ( the current record) multiplied by 365. No that's too difficult, round it down to 200 X 365 for an easy, conservative estimate . I reckon 200 a day...

The worldwide figure is irrelevant. Its now reaching over 200 a day. Some days will be less due to weather, so the winter months may drop off, but it's getting out of control and the trend is sharply upwards 20k last year is about 400 a week. Small change considering we'll be getting that on a...

It was all over the BBC 1 news a couple of weeks ago.

Bravo. That's very commendable.

Its not. About 4 weeks ago it was news there were over 200 for the first time . Recently it's reached over 250. At this rate hundreds will soon become one thousand . As it grows it will grow at an accelerated rate as news spreads of how getting across is easy and how lucrative it is for the...

Its a poor show when you have to explain the " ghastly " reference. Its way over some people's head.

No. Just observations that the world seems to owe you quite a lot.

A very convenient outlook. Still, if thousands instead of hundreds arrive daily across the channel on a daily basis, that's fine because we have lots of jobs and they speak English. Good luck with the house buying.

My youngest wants a house. I've offered to show her a few old Victorian 2 beds in our town, rugby. Small foregarden, very often downstairs bathroom. Basically the cheapest you can get . " Has it got a driveway ?" No. Its Victorian.You park on the road" "Err...no then. " "

Remember Ian Hindle ? I remember him scoring two points at one meeting.

I imagine "they" would hope he'd say he was just grateful to be somewhere safe and that he didn't mind which country he found himself in . ..but then he'd want the best wouldn't he, particularly after being bombed or tortured or witnessed disease, starvation and death.

Exactly the same with my old man. Worked from 16 until 65. Only had two jobs. Like so many of his age (90) he squirrelled money away when he could, paid his mortgage off ( repayment of course) never took out loans except for his house. If he couldn't afford it , he went without. Had central...

A great story. I bet he had his first car paid for in cash long before you did at the same age .

I'm not at all sure what that means really. If you're fleeing a war torn country, should you really be getting your European tourist book out to find the best places to stay , or where the fastest broadband is ?

That's a fair point Dave but I still can't understand the need for travelling across most of Europe. If my house is on fire and my neighbour offers me a room I don't say no thanks I want a mansion with double garage and half an acre....if you catch my drift.
