so it appears we didnt really get a free trade deal after all I saw something on the beeb's news feed a week or so back about a dutch firm that said the new rules meant it could trade with the rest of the world but not the uk

Most of the stuff Silvers sells is imported so is not of UK origin
It also means we will pay import tac from CMSNL I think

So these are the rates S this may damage the Silvers EU business as cost have gone up by 5% + mostly Looking at CSMNL Our costs will go up by Circa 5%

This is interesting
I bought a cheap Aldi Hammer/Chisel Drill in Dec 2019 when a new store opened, Paid £19.99 - they are currently selling them at £39.99
Came to use it for the first time 2 weeks ago and it did not rotate - It has a 3 year Warrantee so went back to Aldi who said over a year old you need to call the supplier - Emailed them and they asked for a copy of the receipt (Which had taken me days to find) - The company are in Austria
Got a response - Due to Brexit we are unable to collect the drill and repair it - we will refund your money
(Idiot really should have tried it when I bought it)
Will now pull it to bits and see what's wrong with it

So the conclusion in this case is that Brexit is good? Or Brexit is bad?

Would rather had it repaired - bad
If I can pull it to bit and fix it - good

Keep us informed.
Might be something real simple.
