Pretty sure when I was in the RAF we owned our planes and ancillary bang-stuff...

If you look at the intensity of the cases in London and the South East it does add to the suggestion this spike is caused by the new variant. It's awful: https://coronavirus.data.gov.uk/details/interactive-map

They've had to add a new colour so high are the cases and you can how it's bled into the surrounding regions.

It has to be said the economies of scale that could be had from only developing one style of cutlery are quite appealing.

My dad has been out 7 times since early March



1. to my sister for a BBQ which was allowed at the time after the first lock down.
2. to see my mum in a nursing home, outside and no contact (3 months after last seeing her)
3. To see my mum on their 54th wedding anniversary at the nursing homes same as before.
4. Mums Birthday as above.
5. see Dr for an important annual check.
6 Flu jab.
7. My mums funeral.


I only leave to do food shopping, I did go to my shopping centre briefly when open, but got angry ant the lack of people wearing masks, so I now use Amazon and will do for the foreseeable future.

Ah, the British Cutlery Board. Leading to the creation of the National Union of Cutlery Workers. Leading to some scruffy trot orchestrating national wildcat strikes from the box room of his council house. Next thing you know there’ll be rota cuts in cutlery supply and we’ll all be eating with our fingers on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The PM also said delays were “only occurring at Dover” which handles “only 20%” of goods sent UK to EU. Boris Johnson failed to mention Eurotunnel which is another 26% (see EY report below) Dover + Eurotunnel = almost HALF of the goods sent UK to EU. Did the PM not know this?

Do they think he goes out and counts them ?

He obviously will rely on information given to him, which presumably was 174 at the time.
