As ever, all are welcome - only one rule:

DON'T BE A TWAT!!

Note: I am a shit host, and not a patch on previous Landladies - I don't cook, I don't clean & I don't prepare drinks. I am a selfish bellend. If you want feeding, there's a microwave in back & a shop down the road. If you want drinks just help yourself 😘 - it's a free bar 🎉🥳🎈

Hey Jimmy! That was helpful

I sometimes seriously laugh out loud at some things attributed to Brexit.

Prices go up in supermarkets.
Someone is made redundant must be Brexit, no-one was ever made redundant pre the referendum.
A supermarket is stopping their price guarantee.
Person couldn't buy a drug.
House not selling.
Thomas Cook has gone under
Stockpiling for Armageddon Brexit
Not going into Wetherspoons
What is this overwhelming sense of doom
Cancer treatment affected
NHS is in meltdown - will be worse after Brexit.

These are just a tiny sample

Evening, all,

It's great to see the return of old friends on here as well as an influx of new friendly regulars. Pity about the rowdiness down the far end of the bar. There are nuts spilled all over the place. In a moment, I'll get the broom from the cellar and sweep up for you, Dusty. I think you are right, by the way. We are experiencing Stage 2 in the grieving process.

I've just watched the Press Preview on Sky and enjoyed a rare moment, hitherto unknown. The reviewers were Brendan O'Neill (who I think is fab) and Christina Patterson (who I usually can't stand because of her drippy liberal tendencies) and...they were in accord with each other and I agreed with both of them. This, by the way, is unprecedented.

They agreed that Labour has patronised its core vote, tested its loyalty to destruction, become a closed shop for the North London Remain elite, is incapable of looking at itself in the mirror and seeing reality, and is going to embark on a bloody civil war in which two identical sides will fight each other to the death. They also agreed that while all of the bloodletting is going on, Boris will be leading a popular revolution to change the culture of the entire country and that it will be at least ten years - if not longer - before Labour will be in any way ready to form an effective opposition.

So please join me in thanking the man who has managed to make all of this possible.

Jezbollah. Ably assisted by John McDonnell, and various others.

Evening, Silvery,

You forgot to mention that there will be no workers' rights, no one will want to trade with us because we are a small insignificant island and not a mighty empire like the EU, and there will be World War III as well as boils, plague, flies and a pestilence of frogs. And that's us getting off lightly.

Can't wait.

Why certainly 🍷

Have just put on the Sky to watch the half 11 paper review...

In other news...
Oor Jimmy the wee willy flasher is apparently a teacher 😱😱😱😱
Am hoping he's nowhere near my precious darlings in his day job 😮

I sometimes seriously laugh out loud at some things attributed to Brexit.

Daftest thing I've seen is someone on Mumsnet just after the Referendum wailing that her daughter wouldn't now be able to do a mfl degree

I'm quite happy if people don't want to go into Wetherspoons. All the more room for me. I like a good Spoons. They have some very interesting buildings, as well as the food and drink.

Hi *SingingLily. Blast, how could I forget boils, plague, flies and a pestilence of frogs

I also wonder how many of the people scrabbling for EU passports based on them have a distant relative will ever move? Jamie Oliver threatened to emigrate if Leave won the referendum but unfortunately he's still here.

“Jamie Oliver threatened to emigrate if Leave won the referendum but unfortunately he's still here.”

😂😂😂 and we mustn’t forget, it was brexit wot killed his business. nothing to do with an over saturated market, over priced bog standard food and piss poor service

I do like his christmas cooking programmes, but channel 4 will just play them on repeat ad infinitum now anyway, so he is free to go...

“I'm quite happy if people don't want to go into Wetherspoons. All the more room for me. I like a good Spoons. They have some very interesting buildings, as well as the food and drink.”

I’m not sure that spoons was really the target market of all these supposed pearl clutching boycotters anyway tbh, a bit like on twitter, when Burger King stupendously managed to alienate a huge proportion of it’s target customer base, with that stupid whopper bus stunt, only to have Quinoa Quentins popping up on twitter harping on about how they might now consider trying one of their burgers (yeah right). Nice one Burger King, personally, I would sack the whole PR dept for that epic fail.

Didn’t age well did it? 😂

“Jamie Oliver threatened to emigrate if Leave won the referendum but unfortunately he's still here.”

And he lies about his 15 minute recipes, as well. 15 minutes? Yeah right. If you have a sous chef to chop and mince everything up for you beforehand and someone to clean up for you afterwards.

Typical bloke.

🥳🥳🥳

I am feeling SO optimistic about 2020, it’s like a dream come true!

I also wonder how many of the people scrabbling for EU passports based on them have a distant relative will ever move?

That's all academic, Silvery, because the day after we leave, all the planes will fall out of the sky anyway and Dutch tomatoes will rot while the lorries wait in the 55 million mile long queues at Calais and don't forget the chlorinated chicken.

Gosh. This is like the Remainer Bingo, isn't it? House!

“That's all academic, Silvery, because the day after we leave, all the planes will fall out of the sky anyway and Dutch tomatoes will rot while the lorries wait in the 55 million mile long queues at Calais and don't forget the chlorinated chicken.”

I read, on another thread that we’ll all be eating Offal and potatoes! Ah well, at least I will have this mystical blue passport that I keep being told I covet, to keep my heart warm.

And he lies about his 15 minute recipes, as well. 15 minutes? Yeah right

Thank goodness for that, thought it was just me coz I can’t pull one of those off in anything under 30 and that’s on a good day!

I've just got my new passport and it doesn't mention the European Union anywhere, just the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

“And he lies about his 15 minute recipes, as well. 15 minutes? Yeah right”

Yep, full on bullshit! The five ingredients is pretty good, until you realise that he expects the average person to have a larder full of capers, cold pressed olive oil, balsamic vinegar from Modena and Pecorino cheese to hand as cupboard staples.

I mean, the average person doesn’t even have a larder, let alone, one full of anything other than tins of baked beans and a 15 yr old tub of baking powder.

One of his 5 ingredient meals that I attempted, required heritage carrots. Fucking heritage carrots? Where do I get these from? I live in ruralville, plain old regular bag o carrots from my Tesco FFS.

“I've just got my new passport and it doesn't mention the European Union anywhere, just the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland “

Is it blue??? 🤩🤩🤩🤩 apparently this is something I’m supposed to be excited about!!

heritage carrots

Improvise, Epic, that's all you need to do. Jamie only uses the best organic veg. So take the ordinary veg, roll it in some mud - artistically, mind - let it dry, and then place in a wicker trug, et voilà! Organic veg. Heritage carrots are even easier. They are just the same as ordinary carrots but smaller.

I love that Waitrose's Essential range (the basic range) includes Essential Hummus and Essential Taramasalta because in JamieWorld, both are pretty essential.

Yes, it's blue. I'm so excited! I'm going to Paris as a special treat in April (never had a holiday in ten years) and the French are going to take one look at my British passport and be difficult about it.

So no change there then

😂😂😂😂

And thanks for the carrot advice, so, roll them in mud, then just shave an inch off the outside? Et voila? Tiny organic posh carrot?

Yep, got it, Epic. You can now tackle any Jamie Oliver recipe with flair and panache. Just don't expect to do it in 15 minutes 😂

I love paris! I have fond memories as an art student, sketching the buildings outside the Musee D’Orsay. Sound like a posh middle class twat now, but it was a student art trip and we stayed in a grim hostel in the Pigale. So not exactly a luxe ‘gap yah’ type thing... 😂

The five ingredients is pretty good, until you realise that he expects the average person to have a larder full of capers, cold pressed olive oil, balsamic vinegar from Modena and Pecorino cheese to hand as cupboard staples.

Having just moved home and having put most things away in the triple cupboard that does duty as my larder, I have a row of jars of capers, lots of balsamic vinegar, cold pressed Greek olive oil in a large tin, and pecorino in the fridge.

In my defence, I also have about 1500 Sainsbury Red Label tea bags (did a run back to the UK when we were supposed to leave in March, and haven't used them all yet) and a year's supply of Frank Coopers marmalade; more Golden Syrup and Black Treacle than you could shake a stick at, and lots of lemon curd.

Am applying for my new passport after a last trip back to Brussels to see friends in January...mine will be blue too!!

Pigalle even! 😂

Well, bugger me, Jamie is right! Lol, probs explains why he is a multi millionaire and I’m not though tbf.. 😂😂😂

Pigalle is well-named. I speak French, well Québécois actually - very guttural: take out all the vowels and throw them away because you don't need them, and then mash up all the consonants together et voilà! Québécois!

The French are very sniffy about my yokel patois. They generally look at me as though I've just stepped off a tractor, with straw in my hair, and knit their eyebrows in puzzlement. Eventually, their faces clear and they can place me. They don't think I'm British. They think I'm Belgian.

I do not think they mean it as a compliment.

Hi ScaryTeacher, you can join our survival gang when the lights go out after Brexit - bring the tea bags and especially the marmalade!
