I'm the old fart in the selfie, in the first photo.

Not how I pictured you at all. For starters you have a beard, that wasnt part of my mental image of you. Secondly, how can I put this delicately,  you are not in the first flush of youth. I knew you were older obviously but I still had a young imp in my mind for some reason. A thread about how we see other posters might be interesting. Although some of us already have the real evidence on some posters.

I wouldn't have guessed that was Steven either, imagined him younger & thought the man with his arm extended was marshalling.

Steve it has to be said you do look the part!

Steven

You are a man of a certain vintage with a beard: I am similarly blessed (as NS will confirm).

Therefore we are above mere fashion and any concerns about appearance - one day fashion will catch up with us!

Steve, as a fan of Orwell I find it hard to believe you are anti Brexit. Orwell would have understood the totalitarian state of the EU, his whole ethos was to show us what was coming and by golly was he right.

The EU is not a totalitarian state. That really is an absurd suggestion. Whoever told you that was lying.

What absolute balls. You are usually one of the beacons of sense on this forum!

Indeed it is.

I think that the true consequence of the 2016 referendum is the realisation that our parliamentary system is in permanent chaos and is unfit for the 21st century. First Past The Post encourages tribalism and favours extremes and see-saw legislation programmes.

I love "I am very cross". How very British.
"I am quite cross" further down... brilliant
