You have to smile,

The Good news
I received an invitation from the Doctor for us to have our annual Flu jabs

The not so good news
We have an appointment 15th October

Poor lass I don't think she understood my comment
If we don't get there start without us,
and laughing may not have helped

I was reminded of the advert of General Custer answering his
Mobile

"It's reinforcements"
The Indians stop the attack and start walking away
He then makes a big mistake in announcing

"And they'll be here Wednesday!"

The rest is History :cool:

It is starting to look like a move against Johnson by all those he has hacked off:

But they could refuse to allow NI food into RoI. Any that does arrive being declared illegal.
Oyster, like everyone else on the mainland, you cannot appreciate how paper thin is this border. A child making their way to school might traverse the border a few times... So with their Daily Lea cheese sambos they are international smugglers!.

I can. I have been there.

And I live in Wales where the border is even thinner. Despite having significant impacts in many areas. Just not trade and tariff of this ilk.

Did you see Ed Miliband at the dispatch box?
Vintage performance from ED, BBC camera caught moments of BJ utterly lethargic.

I was in no mood to trifle
I took down my trusty rifle
And went out to stalk my prey
What a haul I made that day
I tied them to my fender, and I drove them home somehow
Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a cow


Which, despite the “rule of six”, is actually legal. Thanks to the government using some of the plentiful time they have available to ensure that hunting and shooting are exempt from that rule. So glad they took special measures for this exemption. Managed to get it in with minutes to spare before it became law. Phew!

Does this mean that as long as we have a catapult to hand for the squirrels as many as we like can meet in our garden?

Bolton has now risen to 192 COVID cases / 100 000.

But I could go into a pub in Bolton and take no measures. If I went to a country with 21 Cases / 100 000, stayed in isolation in a rural area, I’d be compelled to quarantine for 14 days. ???
It's not hard science, but Marseille is 312 per 1000 and its hospital beds are near saturation with covid patients. I think two weeks top and we'll be there in many areas. And heading for a national lockdown which will distract everyone from what boris/cummings are up to. Perhaps I should apply to become one one of their spads, I'd have suggested they wait a few weeks for covid to become a proper crisis before telling everyone about their complete lack of integrity.

Eat out to help out. According to the Rule of Shittpeas this involves a cash register, so cannot possibly be responsible for spreading Coronavirus. Subject closed.
it also helped Johnson’s national scheme to lose weight.....

was great seeing Milliband serving him an uppercut of truth this evening.

what a shame he wasnt taught how to eat a bacon roll. This would be a very different country right now.

I thought this was fun yesterday
Here is a man who knows what his job entails
Crime minister will vote for Brexit legislation even if it breaks law

In the New European. :D

I really can't be bothered to check up! But likely as not, if we do it as a sport it is OK. But if we do it to tackle an inundation of rats, it isn't.
Perhaps I need to rename our garden as our estate.
