Shaking it all about

Dear Spurtle 

As the European Referendum fast approaches, I can garner little enthusiasm to vote either way.

The IN campaign offers little more than patronising scare tactics whilst the OUT campaign disappointingly fails to promise a return to pound, inch and gallon Imperial measures or pound, shilling and penny £SD currency.

I feel that my ballot paper may well end up being spoiled.

Dear Mr Douglas

How would you feel about remaining in a Europe that converted to Imperial weights/measures/currency?

Dear Spurtle

If we had only had the sense to go into it at the beginning that is what could have happened – along with having the Commonwealth as part of the EU. Tragically missed opportunities!
