  1. however when an eu presidential type gets there knickers in a knot over a no deal Brexit. then maybe its the best option. no deal no pay. border with ireland and the north two lanes one for Irish/brits another for all others. and why should there not be a border? should we leave it open so all other europeans could bypass our customs? and again why should we do ireland any favours. we agreed free movement not free customs.

  2. oh they are. itsan excellent site but caution as it uses secondary sources. some of the smaller local sites are really amazing. ive been using one for tadley in hampshire it has the parish records photo indexes and trees of every family and attached family announcements. odin is my 56th great-grandfather and adam is 82nd  great-grandfather sadly its now thatthe monks liked to fib. they liked to make a hairly saxon warlord appear more godly.

  3. no very few are hereditary. most are life peers. we have to have a second chamber the choice is more elections and you could just end up with duplicate control. maybe it's not perfect but its worked. maybe give it more power to veto laws. why change just for the sake of change. but maybe stop the party nominations.

  4. as all land mammals are introduced species it would be a sad shetland if they were all removed. are we to remove humans as we kill loads with our cars ect.  hedgehogs are in decline nationally lets protect ours. now rats are becoming more common and pose a bigger problem. 

  5. Get your granny to give you a letter saying she's giving you notice to quit her house on a certain date. That makes you 'homeless' through no fault of your own, and very, very likely eligible to be offered some sort of 'Temporary Emergency' accomodation.

     

    You'll have to take whatever they offer you or you'll disqualify yourself from being considered 'homeless' by them, and it may well be a grot hole in the back end of nowhere, but accepting it gets you on the ladder for a permanent place down the line a bit - anywhere from 6 months - 2 years seems to be about average.

     

    While you're supposed to live in whatever that 'temporary emergency' accomodation is, not everyone chooses to do so full time. Moving a few bits of furniture and personal possessions in to it, spending an occasional night there, and collecting mail once or twice a week is all some have done with it round here.

    and if found out likely to lose the house and possibly face prosecution as well as depriving someone that really needs it.
