Oh Yeah!!

The whole industry is dead, I forgot that 😂.

Is fishing almost back to normal nick? I think it must be according to this office for national statistics site ,

https://www.ons.gov.uk/economy/nationalaccounts/balanceofpayments/timeseries/jziy/mret

which as you can see gives figures for trade in goods for fish and shellfish exports to the eu , up to july this year.

On top of that the media have stopped bleating about it now restaurants are back up and running across the continent.

Still who to believe? Pappysmurfs pure bile and bitterness , or official stats?

[Nick]

pappy i thought you told us everyone is starving in cornwall as the supermarket shelves are empty ,and the fishermen are all out of business as they have no one to sell their wares to?

Now you are telling us you are out dining on expensive crayfish?

I tell you pappy , i cannae keep up wae your stories  , and neither can you.

Oh Yeah!!

The whole industry is dead, I forgot that 😂. Ah but that was only bi-valve crustaceans, due to Brexit all the local restaurants have decided that they won't take deliveries of mussels and clams but are happy to take lobster and salt water crayfish.  BTW Pappy, in the U.K. we have a few species of crayfish, not all Rock Lobster. We also have the native U.K. crayfish and the invasive American crayfish.

That is because people are stupid enough to pay it. ([HIGHLIGHT]Seriously[/HIGHLIGHT].) The Wagyu bred and raised in Britain are given the same treatment as those in Japan including being fed beer.
What people with more money than sense are prepared to pay does not mean the same quality for a lot less is not available elsewhere.
It is not just meat, I can eat a Crayfish, (Rock Lobster,) locally for £60, it would cost £350 in London.

Pappy, just cause you write seriously after every point you think salient  doesn't make it so, and what you think stupid people pay is irrelevant. I will explain to you about cost and hopefully educate you. Wagyu is more than beef stock being flown if from Japan or Oz.

This is the thing that people like you don't get. If I come into your home and perform a service, you're not paying for the 20 minutes I'm there to fix your issue, you're paying for the years it's taken me to learn to fix the issue in only 20 minutes.
Same with Wagyu: you're not paying extra for the delicious beef, you're paying for the know how that has taken decades to learn. Some U.K. producer sticks Wagyu on their product doesn't make it so. I've seen Nescafé on the side of busses, you don't get a cup when you get on!!

You carry on with your 50 chicken nuggets from Iceland for a quid lifestyle but don't have the audacity to say what I eat is crap.

Did you look at the price of real Wagyu? it ain't 25 quid. You're looking at £150 for a steak in a restaurant. That's because of the effort involved in massaging the animals on a regular basis.

It is Wagyu and you risk being sued by the farmer for stating it isn't.

AUKUS !!??
Well the yanks always prefer to have a poodle or two along so they can ascribe their various acts of aggression as a Coalition
Same as when they get a few poodles at a meeting and then call it International Opinion.

AUKUS is nothing new really, and the handful of subs wont see the light of day for about 25 years.
I have telling people that the US is now only interested in confronting China directly in the Asia Pacific and all else can go fly a kite.
You have seen this in Afghanistan, you can be sure that Iraq and Syria will follow shortly and not even Europe bothers them that much any more.
The way in which they have been happy to dump over a major European partner over their sub deal with Canberra, illustrates that in spades.

yep its as if people havent learned a thing regarding the americans after afghanistan.

What is it about the democrats when in power that makes them want to warmonger on a constant basis?

Was treated to some once in a London restaurant — though whether it was home grown or imported by diesel or nuclear powered submarine I don't remember. What I do remember was the Gevrey Chambertin we had with it (included the last snippet to reinforce the Lord Snooty image)...

Wagyu now available on Cornwall:-

Perhaps you don't understand the hidden agenda within.
The UK's stock in Japan has gone through the roof since the AUKUS deal, and next year the U.K. hopes to be voted into the Transpacific Partnership.

Plus the U.K. isn't there just as a gimp, we have companies leading the way in Laser weapons, Like Raytheon UK.

 Just as Japanese Wagyu breeding made its way across Australia in the 1990s, now exceptional quality Wagyu cattle are reared here at home in the UK. 
Why British Wagyu? There are a number of factors which make British Wagyu unique.   
British Wagyu beef is wonderful in terms of flavour, marbling and tenderness. This is because Wagyu beef features a surprisingly high level of healthy mono-saturated fat, marbled within the cows' muscles, which melts at very low temperatures, meaning the beef 'melts in the mouth' when cooked. 
Wagyu beef also commands a premium price because of the time it takes for the cows to reach maturity. Where regular cattle may mature after 15 months, Wagyu cattle can take up to three years.

That's not Wagyu,

Wagyu beef is produced in Britain and has been for some years. (Including Wales.) https://www.iforswelshwagyu.co.uk/

That's not Wagyu, that's some cheap crap the equivalent of a 6 quid bottle of Creed perfume off the local market stall.

This is Wagyu.

I understand that term to mean Wind Up Merchant. Why would you use it if he isn't winding you up?

Because of the nature of his posts,if you went on an Irish forum slagging off them and going on about the potato famine them all being terrorists and thick bogtrotters what would that be then?
