So we just scraped the warm-up test?
Reads like the real negotiations on trade might be, erm, quite a bit harder:

The EU, in the person of Michel Barnier, have become bored with the inability of the team led by David Davis to adress the impossibility of TMay's version of brexit, (leave the Single Market. leave the Customs Union, withdraw from the ECJ, but have no hard border bewteen NI/Eire), but have secured sufficient agreement on the rights of EU citizens remaining in the UK, and the monies the UK will pay to fund agreed EU28 expenditures,
to proceed to the Trade Agreement discussions,
with the very optimistic, indeed charitable hope that Davis will perform better.
