    I had it in Dec 2019, took two days to fight it off. No biggy really.

    I think way more has been made of this than is necessary, but that’s the mad worldwide culture these days brought on by sensationalist media. Everything, but everything is chaos, a disaster, tragedy, scandal and a world changing event. In actual fact none of it warrants this ridiculous panic and shutting down of the world.

    Tell that to the families of the 100,000 who died of Covid.

    That's just it though. If you read CAREFULLY, a lot of those figures are obviously incorrect. Read "He died with COVID" (and not 'of'), "She was diagnosed with COVID" (but it wasn't necessarily the cause of death or even an attributing factor). It's still all chalked up as COVID deaths though.

    Ironically, and not surprisingly, all other causes of death have allegedly dropped in the past year. I can't help feeling that a lot of the true figures have been brushed under the carpet and hidden by COVID.

    The government is so warped with its figures these days that it's hard to know what the ACTUAL death rate is. And look at other causes of death year on year; pneumonia itself killing 4,000,000 a year worldwide, yet does everything get closed and masked and prohibited because of that? No, of course not.

    Warped, bent lies for a massive proportion of it.

    I'm not saying that COVID isn't a cause of death, not at all, but the reaction to it is OTT in so many ways.

    This whole Covid-19 thing is a whole horrible nightmare that I never want to relive.

    But me 80-y-o old Royal Marines friend Ken went for his jab today.

    "How was it, Ken?"

    Like "The night of the living dead!" quoth he.

    All the fellow patients were on their last legs. Old boys with walking sticks.

    Ah well, we hope for the best. I get me jab next month.

    now we have a vaccine war with eu, who want more of the share.. oddly they havent even approved the vaccine yet tho.. eople wonder why eu is low on vaccinations, one reason might be they were slow to approve any and are currently only using one.

    politicising vaccine shares to avoid any blame for being slow to plate. That said, although uk were first to order and first to approve, we need to make sure we aint cheating(or imorally stockpiling) as well..

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”
