That might be a question for a mathematician to resolve. The piece of string question, well, that is a little easier for us all. :bed:

Birds are evolutionary descendants of dinosaurs. So the egg came first. :}

I've ordered both from Amazon, I'll let you know 😉😀

Coronavirus: Hundreds of abattoir workers test positive in Germany
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-53087139

similar here closer to home https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-53091149. I suspect this will become a common problem as many have the virus without symptoms or just ignore them cos they need the work. Be interesting to see if there is a spike in Manchester in the next couple of weeks following those illegal raves by the simple minded morons

We went to London last Saturday so my wife could see her daughter for the first time in 3 months. We arranged to meet in Victoria Park and I was shocked to see how many people were there and there was not a lot of social distancing going on, in fact some of the pubs were selling beer in jugs with plastic glasses and groups of a dozen or more were having there own meetings.

The Police were there together with council officers and they were just wondering about not breaking groups up.

We luckily found a quite area and spent a couple of hours with her daughter.

I hope they are wrong about the second spike, 42k deaths is more than enough.

Get a job in a hospital, it's the safest place to be, or shut all the hospitals because there are loads of lurgyfied people in there ;)

I can't wait until it's discovered just how endemic in the population Covid-19 is, and how many people have "survived" without even knowing they've had the virus.

Get out there and enjoy yourself, as tomorrow you might be run over by the bus when the driver is faffing about adjusting his "PPE" and the mask covers his eyes :getmecoat:

Now what about this for a loophole, if you're an NHS employee, you do not need to self isolate for 14 days following a foreign trip.

I'm going to book a holiday for me and the missus, she can go back to work, and I'll stay at home on our return and do a bit of DIY.

I'll send you a postcard :p:

Brian :D

About time too they should have dropped it a couple of weeks ago, it should be dropping to two by now.

PHE this morning stated the death rate has now dropped to where it would normally be.

just read this ?....about Covid19 in Italy ..



The study, released Thursday, was based on 40 water samples collected as part of regular checks from sewage treatment plants in northern Italy from October 2019 to February 2020. It showed the virus that causes COVID-19 in Dec.



18 samples from Milan and Turin, while earlier samples were negative.

Why the pointless 'simple minded morons'? Do you really think that you're superior to others to that extent? It's about time for a halt on using derogatory labelling of groups of people. It serve's no purpose except to demonstrate your own egotism. Put the full stop at the end of 'raves' and lose the last 5 words and you'll see that you still make your point: and more convincingly as well.


Very difficult for us to tell if there's been local spiking due to the lack of detail in the govt figures. But there's certainly not been any countrywide spike of significance.
