Coronavirus - will we survive?

I sometimes wear a flat cap. Should I get a whippet?

I've got a few flat caps. Is that the dogging uniform? Can you leave your cap off, or is it required kit.

Get one of those tartan covered shopping carts with little wheels on it. Unless you are going for the Peaky Blinders look.

My Niece says people play this dogging up Rivington Pike. I might have a look.

You can go for the Last of the Summer Wine look to do it also.

I like the Compo look. Sluffy would be a dead cert for Foggy.

Might take a 'Sholley', I can take other things I might need, such as 'toys', and of course, dog food 

Is Keith Lard involved?

Depends on the weather. I use it when I swim the channel and find it very effective.

He wasnt involved in creating Brexit. Cummings is a bit like Rasputin, except with the Tory party, rather than the Romanovs.

I should state for the record, that I do know who Keith Lard is 

qui est ce?

Character from Phoenix Nights, played by Peter Kay.

That is absolutely minging.

I thought that this was interesting -

It shows that there are about 4,000 coronavirus people needing hospital treatment.

The thing is though that the average is around 1,000 people per DAY being tested positive for the virus.

So on the face of it a huge proportion of those KNOWN to have the virus (there's loads more with it, without any symptoms) are well enough not to need to go into hospital.

Deaths are averaging about 1,000 per week, so I guess that roughly means that only 1 in 7 who test positive need hospitalisation and of those hospitalised 1 in 4 will be recovering and leaving per week, 1 in 4 sadly dying each week and the remaining 2 in 4 still requiring treatment.

Still a long way to go but the less people needing the hospital for the virus the better things are getting.

Hopefully it will stay that way.

Yes. They are both self-proclaimed mystic holy men, healers, f*** their followers and rise to power on the backs of others.

You never know...Rasputin was assassinated by a gang of conservative noblemen. Just saying.

Fascinating article......food for thought.....

Thanks for posting this okocha. It is a very interesting interview.

I watched various news channels this morning, every one had a different expert giving a slightly different viewpoint.

How is anyone supposed to know who is right?
