!!??!!

Are you aware of some impending geographical 'event'?

Obviously not. Enlighten me. You can't mean the Olympics because there is no team GB for football.

Unless you mean the World Cup. Which is every 4 years as per my post.

Anything else isn't on my radar.

Dude, that's not how it works - we'll still be in UEFA.

Along with Kasakhstan, Israel, Georgia and Russia to name but four more decidedly non-members of the EU.

Please feel free to continue a two-yearly cycle of disappointment.

Spouting nonsense since the day I learned to talk
The Euros have nothing to do with the EU but you probably already knew that.

Ah well, we won't be in Euro 2020 seeing as we won't be part of The EU.

That means we only have to complain about how rubbish the England football team are every four years.
You'll still be allowed in, along with all the other non-EU European countries like Iceland, Russia, Turkey, Switzerland, etc....


..if you can qualify..

Team GB in the Olympics actually includes Northern Ireland, which isn't in GB, which seems a bit silly to me.

It's taken me a while but now I get it.

So for things like Eurovision and Euro football it's to do with us being on the continent of Europe and not part of the "EU"

"Sigh" at my own stupidity.

Most "Australians" are European - the Aboriginals never came up with the points-based immigration system before we flooded the place with swarms of migrants.

The situation in Israel is not too dissimilar.
