"If my father wore a mask in the shop the other day, it's entirely possible he could've saved a handful of lives...
But on the other hand, if he'd worn a condom in 1963, it's entirely possible he could've saved 80,000 lives!"


I love it!

The comments section is worth a glance.

The comments section is the joke... I particularly liked the JRM reference

Having watched the replay of the debate, and listened to some of the analysis from the GoP side, where there is now genuine concern as to whether he could win, I am cynical that this might be yet another ploy. What better way of removing him from public view, cancelling the next debate than this?. A miraculous recovery after three weeks in the tomb (yes I know the last time it was 3 days, but he is 2000 years older now), would do wonders for his base.

A few years ago, I would have said that you were mental for suggesting such a thing. In today’s world of Boris Johnson, Cummings and Trump, your theory is highly credible.

As a comedian recently put it when asked why he was spending 3 quid on designer coffees rather than buying a house ... Well all the 3 quid houses were gone. When we got our first house in 1979, we did not have carpets or flooring .. except the concrete and a woodstain on the upstairs plywood for a year. My father and mother gave us the cot . After the year, I could afford cork tiles to put on the kitchen DIY of course, and then DIY mahogany parquet panels glued to the concrete in the front room.
I look with envy at how finished my sons house was when he moved in.

New houses are not the only option to buy, there are huge numbers of older ones still like those earlier ones, flagstone floors, stained floorboards, worn out lino, primitive bathrooms etc., going cheap but still perfectly liveable in as first homes while gradually improving them and making a profit towards the new owner's future.

It just means some hardship at first.

Scottish twat.

While few would disagree with the second part of your post but what is the relevance of the first part?
For consistency, will you from now on include the nationality or place of residence of everyone you post about?

Obviously I didn't mean going that far, that's more a development possibility for someone prepared to gamble.

The last house my brother moved into well into this millennium was built in 1900 by a local builder, no architect involved and scarcely improved since. All the doors were rural plank ones vaguely nearly filling holes in the walls, the one major change long ago was that the kitchen, bathroom and toilet had been relocated into a simple lean-to extension on one side to create an extra inner room.

But apart from the bathroom and toilet being very cold in winter, it was comfortable to live in as I know from my stays there, including during winter.

The key thing was that it was half the market price in that area and a fraction of the prices in my area and a fan driven warm air wall mounted heater to improve the cold bathroom/toilet cost less than £30.

Take heart wheeler can you imagine how angry he would have been if she had been French! I am pretty sure his head would have exploded.

That triggered a flashback, I live in an old cottage with knotty pine floor boards (probably not that old then) that was covered in a thick black tar substance when I purchased it - I think that's what you mean with stained? Removing that lot with a floor sander is something I wont forget in a hurry

The Corries, a Scottish folk group .of the 1970s , .who were actually Architecture students at the time have a song on the subject ..the Heiland House Hunter,I think it is called. Available in youtube. It is compulsory listening ...

Possibly - I wore a mask (but smoking fifty a day for the ten years before that was probably not a good idea)

Not like that. Our floorstain back in the 1940s was just a brown woodstain soaked into the floorboards and when dryed treated to a floor wax coating to seal it, making it easy to sweep and occasionally polish. Basically like furniture is stained and waxed, though to nothing like the same finish.

He has also had a 2 kw U.V. light stuck up his jacksy

Doesn't forcing someone to administer that constitute "cruel and unusual punishment" so contrary to the 8th amendment of the USA's constitution?

Of course, I mean c&up to the person administering to Trump.

This one for fingers in particular... NI ,on my doorstep, had CV19 certified positive infection rate of 220 @3 days ago, 460 new cases yesterday and 936 today. ...

So much for the Referendum being the will of the people
Correctly it was this
The Subverted will of the people

Same people, same Modus Operandi involved by the Leave Campaign in the Referendum

If all the republicans infect each other, they won't be able to go and vote in person. So will have to rely on the postal votes they say are totally corrupted...

And my goodness, they are trying to achieve that cross-infection. Mike Lee is positive.

Good point. Slip of the keypad. She’s a twat.

I mean, what was she thinking? Getting on a train in full knowledge that you have Coronavirus. It defies belief. I wonder if the jockey will have any luck tracking & tracing those she’s been in contact with?
