I’m beginning to see why we have high numbers then. Apart from that shortage you’d be hard pushed to find a household here without a box of covid tests. But in Spain even capped at £3 euros its going to deter people from testing. My family have all had to test weekly for various reasons and that would be €12 euros a time, one one period we had to test twice a week which would be €28! No way I’d pay that if we were symptom free. I’m guessing that’s why you didn’t test when you and the wife felt a bit dodgy cos you don’t have a box of tests at home?

@XTreme how does getting covid tests work in Spain? I read that the covid lateral flow tests have to be bought or appointments have to be made and that the govt had to intervene to cap the price at €3 per tests cos being ripped off for basic testing. Is it not like here were everyone has a free pack of them (shortage’s allowing) at home and tests regularly as a matter of course?

Its suits the forum in a lot of ways Lionel. Carry on Biking while you can you bunch of geriatrics, carry on biking with the terrible carry on humour, carry biking the endurance/ hard core rider/ traveller. Can be taken many ways.. yep theres even carry on options in that sentence

Im a yes for the gifs alone. And who says we’re not serious enough? Serious people should have a serious look and themselves, they’d quickly conclude they take themselves/life too seriously and if they don’t conclude that they should go and find other like minded souls who also reach seriously poor conclusions

Thats great news although Im a tiny bit sour as Id planned to go over the mendips today til flaticus battricus decided otherwise! I did say it would probably be wrong and stay foggy til midday, you gotta read the full prediction I didnt know there was a prison at Shepton Mallet, so is it just a visitor centre full of empty rooms? Bet it felt great to be out after all that time. How’s the legs now?

I dont think so, Id ask for opinions sit on it for a couple of days let it germinate at then make an executive decision which Id guess will be a yes. Cos this place is a Carry On The domain name alone is worth having, sounds like a successful brand. Surprised it’s available.

Sounds like he’s enjoyed himself… “..there would be no room in my life for relationships other than temporary encounters….. there was a ginger haired girl called Barbara, and a girl I loved who worked for the BBC but went on to marry an older man who wore a wig. There was the feminist with fish oil syndrome who smelt like decaying mackerel, and the one with hairy arms who got a first at Oxford. I loved her too but she thought me inappropriate. There were blind dates with ugly women and women so thick they could hardly string a coherent sentence together. Girls I could not understand and some I didn’t even like. I learnt a lot from ugly girls; they knew their fate and could always get laid. There was the small one from Swansea and the solicitor from Atherstone; the brassy one from Chelmsford and the curly-haired one from Cockermouth. There was a pretty young thing from Ormskirk and someone I met on a beach at Cromer. Curiouser and curiouser, they’d all had a bit of me and I’d had a bit of them, as we casually strolled through this lunatic asylum of love and life. So there I was, standing up to walk out of that examination hall and into the arms of Grace. She was from Singapore, with a degree in Chemical Engineering and the perkiest sticky-uppest kind of body either side of the Andaman Sea.” -
