When we are Brexited.....

Does the gherkin object have a striped sweater, hat and scarf? We'll be able to spend time paying Where's Wally when we've had enough English wine.

Global warming? I don't think the French and Germans will let us keep that when we brexit, will they?

Global warming will make English wine more commercial and all the dippy down bits of the South Downs will be planted up with olive trees.

It was rather expensive but a treat for a special occasion.
It may have been even better with a wally or two though.

Do they grow in this country? (sounds suspiciously German to me, I have bought gherkins in Lidl )

Wally is a small gherkin like object, a perfectably passable British substitute for an olive . Have had a few bottles of English sparkling wine, it is produced locally here, and very nice it is too, but rather more expensive as there just isn't the economies of scale, and the small production makes it a costly process. Nice though, and one has to do one's best to support local business don't you know!

wally?
Que Wazzat?

We enjoyed a bottle of English champagne sparkling wine recently and very good it was too. Different, but good.

And olive oil will be returned to its proper place; the chemist's shelf, where it will be dispensed for those with troublesome ear wax. Cooking will be with lard. Real chip pans, none of this safe electric fryer nonsense, give us back control of our good old fashioned chip pan fires!

No Olives, what's wrong with a pickled onion? Or a wally?

Plenty of olives in Israel.

British olives and British wine! Oh Joy!!!

We have wine!

I'm emigrating then.

Olives will be banned. They're far too foriegn. What's wrong with chewing on a carrot stick?

Yes! you could go into business NfkD

No stones though, I broke my tooth on one once.

I've got an olive tree in my garden Jalima and I think this year the olives may ripen!! They're a bit small though.

Why would we get rid of animal welfare, the NHS, etc watermeadow? That's the British bit. Everyone knows Eastern Europeans have the mega farms, the French ignore animal welfare legislation, and none of them have the NHS.

Actually I doubt being out will make much difference in my bit of the Back of Beyond. Only the big farming estates owned by insurance companies and such benefit from automatic EU payouts and that goes to shareholders not the farms.

Do they grow olives there watermeadow?

Post-Brexit our island will be towed across the Atlantic to join the USA.
Goodbye to Animal welfare, the NHS, environmental controls, decent education and healthy eating.
Hi to mega factory farms, no health care if you can't pay and over-medicalisation to make profits for the drug firms, racial police, Death Row, gargantuan meals of junk food, radical Christianity, only US history and geography taught.
And dogs with their ears and tails cut off, cats with their claws removed.

OK; if I eat one a day they should last for about a fortnight.

You need to ration those olives Jalima God knows where the next lot will come from.

My mum has just had her hair cut short-it suits her, first time in her adult life she hasn't had a perm (and she is talking about having one) She's 95

I am having a panic attack at the thought of no olives; in fact I may have to go and demolish the carton of them that we have in the fridge

In 1975 I should specify

My mum was a bit younger than I am now in the 1970s and she used to have a perm!
