How is the UK trade negotiating team going to negotiate two things concurrently? Gerald can't be in two meetings at once, and whilst Mavis is there to help she's only part time and doesn't work Wednesdays. They might have to ask Geoff to help out.

From the article:



Obviously "sequentially" there (AKA consecutively) should have read "concurrently".

Why is it nobody under the age of 30 seems to understand the distinction ?

You've never driven a car with a concurrent gear box?

EU to tell UK pay up or else

Apparently the EU governments think the commission is being too lenient with the 60 billion bill, should be a lot higher

From the article:

* Consider whether to insist that talks on future trade deal will only take place after agreement on the exit deal - or sequentially, as the UK wants.

Not any more. Yay for the UK, we've passed the EU. Their puny rise of 0.2% to 2% compared to our brilliant 0.7% increase to 2.3%.

I'm surprised the usual suspects haven't been shouting this good news from the rooftops.

RPI now 3.2%

[WTFH]

Hasn't the Eurozone got higher inflation at 1.8% than the UK's 1.6%?

By the time Brexit ends , you only need 3 things in life , a roof over your head so hope you have all paid off your mortgages, food which you can grow in your back garden and toilet paper for which I would recommend using a £50 note for wider coverage and cleaner fingers

greenlake will swap toilet paper for a working copy of Photoshop...

Lol so true :-)

Is this Creative Cloud Adobe's fancy term for their non-standalone version of Photoshop that relies on the Internet and (possibly, not sure?) a significant annual subscription like a virus checker?

More fool anyone who bought it.

They stopped selling boxed versions, they had to switch to subscription model as otherwise they'd have to close company down - Photoshop was good enough

Inflation for imported goods and services from US companies is a tad bigger
