General Discussion Area / Re: CV 19 vaccination
« on: 31 December 2020, 01:58:46 »
The Oxford vaccine was approved for clinical use 30 Dec. 
They start rolling it out Monday the 4th, it`s easy to produce & transport @ fridge temps
Things aren`t good at the moment with increasing spread of the virus.
The Oxford vaccine can be produced in huge amounts all around the world
Astrazeneca the company involved with the Oxford scientists say they have agreed not to make a profit during the pandemic, unlike Pfizer who must be making huge profits at the moment.
The Oxford team say that their recent trials indicate the new mutations won`t affect the vaccine. there`s also a strong response in older adults
Would I have the jab ? yes please, but I won`t get it until much later in the year
Here`s one of the calculators

The perfect home test for the virus is simple 
Pour out a glass of your favorite tipple, now does it smell & taste ok
If it does then all is good & as we here from Boris more testing will be a benefit
This evening I`ve tried stringing the tests together & I feel just great

"corbynite" sounds a bit like "cryptonite" doesn`t it 
Surely the drug of choice for big Len McCluskey

ex = once was .....
spurt = drip under pressure
Getting very fed up with all these self-appointed "experts" who suddenly appear from nowhere ......
Much like the Track & Trace expert roaming around our local shopping mall this evening.
As ppl walked past him they all got the same up & down scanning treatment
Until he pushed his luck a little bit too far & one the local females gave the moron a happy slap across the face

I`m confident that as much thought & planning that went into the world beating Morris Marina, has been applied to the NHS Track & Trace app

« on: 26 September 2020, 12:36:17 »Booger the bog roll is disappearing fast again, nipped around to the Veg isle & it all looked pretty sparse. I wish these medical expert doom sayers would just can it for the sake of the rest of us
So you want them to bog off?
People think another full scale lock down is just around the corner & just buying a little bit extra, then triggers the panic buyers.
At most you need to self isolate for 14 days,, how many bog rolls do the ejits think they will need.
It`not quite the March madness, but now locally Asda have limited the number of Bog rolls to 3 items, Tesco have said they`ll do the same & in Aldi it`s just one welder, 4 electric toasters & no limit on sports bra`s; although all the pink ones have now been taken

Nag Nag Naga Munchetty on £195k bless her 
She says BBC presenters are not there simply to read out the news like robots
WRONG she thinks she`s bigger then the corporation, I can see a one woman show on the horizon & a starting salary of at least a £million

« on: 09 September 2020, 01:50:57 »I was listening to mangina Jeremy Vine this afternoon.
Clearly misread that as "magician Jeremy Vine" and wondered when he'd decided to fill Paul Daniels' bow tie...
It`s one hell of an act for the £700K the beeb are paying him

Agree
I`ll try & find one of my bike cam vids, it took me the best part of 5 miles to weave thru traffic on the M27 to get to the head of a rolling road block caused by 2 professional drivers.
Nether of them willing to give way to the other

Its bus drivers who give me the most problems though. I find many of them pig ignorant on the roads.
