I Have Just Creosoted My Gate

[Ric.ror]

Obviously not creosote as the eu has deemed we can't use that anymore
A bit like having a pork chop with a bit of kidney attached
Reason enough to vote out if you ask me

[viv41]

We can't use creosote any more ??

[agchristie]

Try adding some salt and pepper? :(

[bhg481]

Not real creosote since 2013 - other wood preservatives are available.

No viv
The EU says it contains carciogens. I not that it is still available to purchase in bulk in the UK for commercial use (agriculture etc). Can't beat creosote mixed 50/50 with old sump oil. I have never found a better wood preservative than genuine creosote.

[viv41]

Oh well, I suppose that's fair enough !

Chickens with the giblets in is reason enough out. Why, oh why are they banned? You can't make the gravy as good as it used to be. :(

[retrocop]

Wot. No giblets in little plastic bags inside the cavity anymore? Why not ?

[viv41]

The world's gone mad retro, mad I tell you ......

[retrocop]

viv
Well that little bit of the world that contains the EU certainly has, but some of us realised that years ago :-(
Out for me.

[viv41]

Me too x

I used to love a pork chop with a kidney attached. Didn't realise that had been banned. My mind was made up as soon as I heard about the referendum, and hasn't changed. Definitely OUT.

To be honest I cannot think of anything worse than a pork chop with a bit of kidney but what I don't like is being told by any 'cheese eating surrender monkeys' what I can and can't eat
