It's done it again. I'm not risking a third attempt. Sorry WW, today and me are clearly not made for each other

I particularly enjoy "Feel like making love". Amazing what you can do with three simple chords.

What worries me most about the prospect of Brexit looming large on the horizon isn't shortages or disruptions those will be uncomfortable but should sort themselves out over time it is the 'real anger' from the people who don't accept the result of the referendum, I'm not mad about it myself but it seems to be taking some people out of 'reasonably miffed' into 'absolute fury' and it's becoming more pronounced the closer it gets. It doesn't look as though there will be another referendum, no hint from the government that they are considering one and my concern is wondering what the increasingly angry people might consider doing in protest as we get closer still to the end of March next year. I'm a pragmatic person and will take steps to make sure we're stocked food/water/medicines wise and I'm not militant but I forsee heated protests and disrupting events from those who are and the rest of us will possibly affected by their actions.

I agree Mrs LW, it!!!8217;s already noticeable in discussions on here! If they did hold another referendum it would cause anger amongst those who voted leave in the first place. I feel the government have left all there deals far too late, it!!!8217;s all this uncertainty that!!!8217;s causing anger and confusion, and the scaremongering from the press isn!!!8217;t helping. We use to be such a united country, but I fear if the shtf it will be everyone for themselves. Very sad

It might be difficult for a while but I'm sure it will eventually calm down and then we'll have, as a whole nation, to see what we can make together of what we find when the dust both political and emotional has settled. I like to think that if we all face the problems together we might just amalgamate into one 'people' again and with a more definite sense of nationality than we currently have.
