Brexit: Gibraltar angered by Spain's EU 'veto'

[AtW]

My team (Scotland) wasn't even playing. I was at a NATO conference in Izmir that week whilst England were in town. Pure coincidence.

So you supported Turkey then?

Poor old ATW.



Hold their own now, though, so I have heard

So the rumours are true then?

Alexei no mates

[WTFH]

I am NOT an IT contractor.

Then why are you wasting our time on this forum, trollbhoy?

So, over to you Baldrick. Do tell us about your "worldly experience".

Rule #3.
(Aka Section 26, paragraph 5)

Because it is a "contractor" forum, not specifically restricted to IT? And if anyone can be deemed to be a "waste of time", you see him whenever you look in the mirror.

If you are reduced to thumbing through the rulebook then you really are scraping the barrel. Well done.

OK, simpler question: how many countries in Europe have you worked as a contractor? (If, for example, you worked for the British government or the military and were based abroad for a period of time, that doesn't count as contracting, nor does handing out fliers on the beach at Ayia Napa)

He drove to Greggs in Llandudno in 1994 when they had a 1/2 price pie sale on. Does that count?

No tulip Sherlock.
What you going to do now that your girth and fitness levels preclude you from being the hired help?

Poland, Ireland, Holland, and Belgium twice.

Well your original point was that if someone were never to have left their own limited geographical area, they would have no idea of what life might be like elsewhere.
You now seemed to have added the caveat that it only "counts" as relevant experience if one is a contractor whilst living and working in some of these environments.
So are you suggesting that the only way one can glean an understanding of the situation in places like Northern Ireland, or Gibraltar, or anywhere else for that matter is to actually "work there as a contractor"?
Bit of a random assertion isn't it?
Or is it just another indicator of how desperate your viewpoint is becoming?

Keep on digging.
