Just had a message from my car insurance, if I'm taking my car out of the country after 29th March, they need 14 days notice too.

Lovely

Aw, I thought they were making a repeat of the 90's classic film - you had my hopes up there

Smart insurance company predicting 'No deal' will happen.

Alternatively, stupid government refusing to legislate to rule it out, ensuring that everyone has to make contingency plans?

Would you prefer they waited till deadline day, then if we did crash out said "sorry, you won't be able to go on holiday for 14 days"?

They could always stay in Britain for their holidays. 

Too what??

I had a similar message a few days ago.

The part I found entertaining was that Tesco Bank gave me the option of either getting one sent in the post or getting one sent to me by e-mail which I would have to print out "ON GREEN CARD"!

Is the colour of the card really that important? would the same information suddenly cease to make sense or be legible if it were printed on white paper?

That legall is the colour .Somyes it does matter.

That legall is the colour .So yes it does matter.

Ah ok the "too" confused me.............DOHH!!!

And customs carnets and bank guarantees and all that wonderful stuff we had.

Don't forget your International driving licence and your visas and/or visa waiver fees.

Blue passports 

Turn round the argument. in this day and age you should be able to have it in colour you perosnaaly want.

And to take your pork pie out of your luggage!

This is the good stuff we're supposed to be looking forward too, isn't it?  I'm fed up with Project Fear - I want someone to start Project Excitement and list all the wonderful things that we have to look forward to, like brown field building sites where there used to be car plants and green cards and blue passports that will get you out of our county but not into another and, and, and ............ stuff.

They also need 14 days notice

What's your point?

Sounds like a great idea.

I've been waiting for May to tell us how much better off we'll all be when we leave.

Get the correct type of International driving licence too. There are different versions for Spain (and I think Portugal) and the rest of the EU.

Don't forget - this is 'the best possible deal'.  I haven't heard that phrase for at least a year.  Not sure why.

Anyway, I'm about to lick my thumb and stick it in a light socket and hope for the best possible outcome.  The other plan would be to put a light bulb in, but where's the fun in that?

If it ends up hurting, it's because the electricity is being mean to you, when all you were asking for is to light up your thumb to 1000 lumens - what's so hard about that?

Indeed, how selfish for people to have made plans to travel abroad.

And to meet people who talk in a different language and have different traditions!!

....Which could make it less of a holiday?

Hooray for Brexit.

Well, I'm hoping for a life without the unnecessary expense of light bulbs.  I don't see why I should have to pay for electricity either - I can's see it so why should I pay?  Clearly, if the deal isn't a good one, then I won't need light bulbs anyway, so what's the problem?

So the big question is - is my fuse box thingy CE approved and does that matter?  All it does is cause trouble anyway, making silly rules about when electricity should flow and when it shouldn't.

Bloody traitors, fraternising with the remaining 27!

you need some dunkirk spirit

There's a name for a new cocktail!

We got kicked out of Europe then by force.  Took us an age to get back in, and now look at us.  Ho xxxxxxxx hum

Aye, to burn in your oil lamps when the electricity runs out...

Exactly. British holiday resortshave got busier since Austerity and Brexit will do them an even bigger favour. Who needs guaranteed sun. No passport me!

Won't there be an import duty on it though?  Best sticking with gin.

It's only the elite who want to travel. They've had it coming. 

There’s always Bala!

To clarify, I'm an adamant remainer and my above "dunkirk spirit" comment was a joke

And to meet people who talk in a different language and have different traditions!!

If the tradition you want is inbreeding
