I use visqueen - just put a fork through it in some places to let the water drain through. Sits nicely beneath gravel and I've had no weeds coming through for over 3 year. You may need to pluck an odd small weed growing between the gravel but they have negligible roots.

I'm an introvert too and self sufficient. Are you my neighbour for the past 20 year?

Now there is a big one. The answer is metaphysical in a way. He says that knowing that if you are listening you will hear him say it, if you're not it doesn't matter.

It's not necessary. The universe is only 13 billion years old and is expected to last well over another 100 trillion year.

The universe is probably base 23 so we're gonna need 13 extra theories.

Apparently the magic number that explains everything is the fraction 1/137.

It's now got to the point, strangely, where telling the truth has become 'offensive'.

Back in the day those that couldn't but we're physical were ideally suited to the game. The modern game has changed and for some players it is definitely better if they do at least try and think.

It’s not a question of where the money comes from, it’s will the subsidies continue and if so for how long.

You feel "disinclined"? I'm not surprised, as the reality isn't what you are willing to accept. We do accounts for farms. Without subsidies, the price of UK Lamb/beef will have to quadruple in price so the farmers can break even. Who is going to pay that? Reality. Where do the subsidies for UK lamb...

Looking at and reading the wording of the Benn bill it implies the PM only has to reach an "agreement" with the EU. If an agreement between the EU and the PM is reached - even if that is acceptance of a remote customs border, or even a no-deal then the rest of the HOC have no say.

There actually isn't. The government cut taxes for the wealthy while they were cutting spending for everyone else. "We are all in it together" was simply a lie.
