Which Tyler. :mad:

Not much is known of Wat Tyler's early life. There are varying sources of his birth. One claims that he was born on January 4, 1341, while another source claims he was born around 1320. Most historians agree that he was born around 1341 and didnt like video games. He was fascinated by John Ball, his group having broken the radical priest out of jail. He was probably born in Kent or Essex. “Wat” may have been his given name (derived from the Old English name Watt), or a diminutive form of the name Walter; his original surname was unknown, possibly he was called Daffyd..[1] It is thought that the name "Tyler" came from his occupation as a roof tiler. Prior to the Peasants' Revolt, it is probable that he lived in Kent or Essex; he has variously been represented as coming from Dartford and Maidstone in Kent, from Deptford, which was in Kent at the time allegedly, and from Colchester in Essex

I've had no trouble getting any of those things.

Gotta say that stocks are 'irregular' here.

Last week the big Sainsbury's was out of pasta and the shelves were filled with dried rice and rice pouches. Today I popped to Asda and they had full stocks of pasta.

Juice and bottled water has been low or empty for weeks now. Depends how close to their delivery you rock up.

Cheeses and cured meats have been exactly the same.
 
In the interests of transparency, the following have been substituted for me for my order coming tonight. In reality the only annoyance is the scourers, I’m still getting sweetcorn and apricots, just in different quantities. The Brazilian spice mix sounds nice. Oh and a massive :rolleyes: at the bottled water purchaser.

I also took paracetamol out of the basket as they didn’t have any. I have about 100 at home already so didn’t really need them. My biggest challenge is spending £40 to get the delivery.

Did you write the Wikipedia entry or should you sue for copyright as its identical ?

NI is part of UK, UK left. The fine details of cross border trade were not asked about. I repeat, thats what we employ politicians and civil servants. The arrangements are unsatisfactory, and require renegotiating. But NI is not part of the EU, its still part of the UK.

Both Scottish Independence and NI have been used by the EU to try and cause political instability within the UK. What did you expect when we tried to leave the Greater German Empire, it spoilt the German plan for the domination of Europe. Itll sort itself out eventually, even if we have to force their hand by suspending the protocol. It wont be the north the IRA will then bomb, itll be the EU, Cork and Dublin. (Only the gullible Sir John Chastelaine believed the IRA got rid of its guns and Semtex)

Tiocfaidh ar la, you silly unionist plum.

The occupied 6 counties will be free and there's nothing you can do about it.

Nothing 'alleged' about Deptford being within the boundary of the historic County of Kent. Some of the old County boundary posts even remain to trace the old administrative delineation, account here:

For anyone interested about the course of the old, historic boundary through SE London, I put some stickers on an old OS map a few years ago (rainy day :D ):

Northern ireland is part of the EU in a different way to Wales, England and Scotland according to the protocol.
That was not on your ballot paper, so what you voted for hasn't happened. What you call 'democracy' hasn't prevailed.

Your second paragraph must be your verbatim report of something you overheard a total wanker nutcase saying.
 
Brexit is a superb thing if you are into Fish. You can eat it at every meal. I dont know if the Restaurants will drop their prices in line. Fill your boots with Mackerel. All the people that died in the Cod wars were not in vain.

Very rarely see Feta and Haloumi here
Click to expand...
Lidl in Portugal have halloumi in at the moment, but I think it’s just part of their Greek themed thing they do every year for a few weeks. About €2.50. Places seem to have houmous now too, which we couldn’t find about 5 years ago. Plus loads of vegan stuff. Hipsters get everywhere.
 
Aldi seemed to have plenty of fresh fruit and veg today, but hardly any frozen veg (we usually get stuff like frozen broccoli for soup). Didn’t notice anything else in short supply, they can be quite sketchy with certain lines anyway, so nothing new not to be able to get something, if anything today was better than usual on this front. The only thing out of the ordinary was that they were restricting purchase of dried pasta to four bags per customer.
 
No frozen sweetcorn available when I started going through the Tesco order this evening. Plenty of tinned but no brand of frozen at all
