That is one of the most disturbing gifs Ive seen in a long time!

Looks like most people do Pete … Population of England Wales and Scotland Wales 3.7 million Scotland 5.5 million England 56 million

Yep the vast majority of over 50’s. Some had other varieties but only the under 40s were deliberately offered something else if they wanted.

This ones for @XTreme to feed his obsession with what vaccine is best and for anyone else that had Astrazenica and was susceptible to the pharma war that trashed that vaccines reputation. The figures are showing the UK death rate just hasn’t increased as expected. We have a very high infection rate as youd expect in a densely populated country but our death rate is not rising commensurate to the infections, its just flat, unlike the rest of Europe where deaths are rising as infections go up. Why? Well the only conclusion they can draw is the Astrazenica vaccine (that the majority of the population and all the older vulnerable were given) is more effective. How is this possible when vaccine effectiveness percentages are constantly bandied about showing Pfizer as great? Big pharma are big on PR. In reality there is no reliable way of measuring the T cell immune response Pfizer and Moderna rely on and the lab results they have are not being backed by real world data. Astrazenica works differently and currently looks like it gives a far more durable response. So there you are yet another which vaccine is best story to add to the mix. I hope Astrazenica come back to the party and start producing boosters. They had said no way after the way they were treated but fingers crossed. ps if this becomes a widely known news story you should expect another Astrazenica is shit story to follow, pharmaceutical companies are aggressive in their pursuit of the money god.

What a nice comment. Its lovely to have you here. Really enjoy your updates, keep ‘em coming.

A couple of years ago. Not the finest photo but one of my favourites, cos I was so happy, dorky looking but happy, like top tier happy, felt like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz running through the flower fields in the sunshine except on a motorbike, dont think Ill ever beat that. Just me and one other guy and not another soul about.

Correct.

Not 100% cos Ryan air have switched my flight on the 10th Jan to an earlier one on the 8th that I cant do, gotta ring em up. They probably dont have enough passengers to fill their quiet midweek flights because most sensible people moved into “wait n see what happens” mode where as Ive moved into the much more fun, fuck it risk it biscuit mode If it doesnt happen, it doesnt happen its no loss. The test are fine for another time, the airline gives you the opportunity to rebook (or have a voucher) and the car hire can be cancelled with no charge.

They are going to have to make a break from it at some point, when the boosters are done people will be as protected as they could possibly be so then its either going to have to be get used to living a restricted life (not fond of that option myself) or use judicious testing and live with it. No Im not saying that because I just spent £150 on travel Covid tests that I may well not need when they review the figures after New Year.. ok yes I am

Dont feed the monster Have a similar one, was on my way back from Bruton a couple of weeks ago and Google maps was keen on this road, kept redirecting me there even though it was the wrong way

Blimey 2019 seems like a long time ago!

She sure is. Shes good company too.

My mum sent me a photo of my 3rd birthday in a very pretty liberty print smocked party dress and baseball boots I refused to take off, in one hand I have a picnic basket and the other a plastic machine gun, she said that pretty much sums you up. As one of my friends said “youre kick ass in a nice wrapper” so no Im not girly but I appear that way.

I think it was a deliberate mix to get an interesting fighting dog. It was only a small puppy when my mum got it but it was already screwed up. I suspect there were other dogs in the litter that showed more fighting potential and they ditched the rest. Animal cruelty makes me fume beyond reason, I could quite easily enjoy the cruelty they inflict being inflicted on the perpetrator!

I seem to have missed the thankyou to @XTreme off the end of that.

I think youd surprised Pete, I have a serious case of the book doesnt fit the cover, people make huge assumptions based on my appearance and for me its always wrong. So its lovely to be here just being myself without people getting angry that the thing they assume is quiet sweet and girly does swear and isnt what they expected

I knew youd come round to Royal Enfield in the end.

Im guessing your saying she was Bonnie…

My son reminded me earlier that on Christmas Day I hook kicked my mums dog in the face! I forgot all about it, she has a rescue dog thats got a nasty side and when my son broke into a run down the hallway it started growling and baring its teeth before launching into a run after my boy- it wasnt going to end well. The shock stopped it in its tracks. Feel a bit bad about it now but what you gonna do? She had one of those DNA tests done on it and its part Staffie, part Vizsla, part Rottweiler and part Doberman. Cant imagine a worse combo, reckon I got off lightly! And its called Bonnie

I could see it was pixelated without zooming in but yer cors I did

No new restrictions here before new year.

Is that a Lego Pterodactyl?
