They don't like us any more than we like them.
Well, if they like us as much as I like them, they'll like us a lot.

Spent time in all those places over the years - working and for holidays.

The people I have met have been warm, welcoming and friendly.

I've made some lovely friends and stay in contact with a fair few - particularly during sporting events where there is the usual banter 'cos nobody likes the English when it comes to sport.

They weren't nice to me just because I had tourist money and was paying for their hospitality.

They're all pretty much like "us" but on a different diet.

Crafty little perishers in one respect - they have a different word for everything to confuse me.

The governments seem to be the problem - we/they then seem to revert to "stereotype".

Funny old world.

If we come out of Europe, what continent would we be in? I'm no fan of Brussels but I don't want to be in Asia or anything.

  Micheal Gove has this morning stated that the "cast iron deal "that Cameron is trying to sell us can be over ruled at any time
  by the European Court of Justice because it is not enshrined in the Treaties. The Court stands above ALL nations, so what is
  Cameron's deal worth.?

Well I am enjoying the campaign so far. On Wednesday Iain Duncan Smith {do you remember him? he used to be a nobody ... and still is} dismissed a Government report as a "dodgy dossier". Then he described the Government approach as spin, smears, and threats that amount to bullying. Today he complains about the "acrimonious manner" of the Government and warns that this could do damage to the Government. What damage a dodgy bunch of spinning, smearing, threatening bullies? Surely not! Ho ho ho, what a hoot!

  More and more prominent EU spokespeople are making more and more threats to the people of the United Kingdom

  if they DARE to vote democratically to leave the EU.  That in itself is good enough reason to get out quick.

  They need our money, and in times of trouble they need someone who doesn't wave a white flag, to get them out of the sh#t.

Trying scare tactics like The French will let all the asylum seekers through the borders without checks is more likely to put my back up and vote leave..
