Coronavirus - Keeping it light :-)

[Mike Johnson]

I asked my wife what she wanted for Christmas "Something in Silk" she said, I just know it does not matter what paint I buy her it will be the wrong colour.

 

[telectrix]

i told mine she'd look good in something long and flowing.

What do you suggest, she asked.

how about the Mersey.

 

[OnlQQker]

I can't tell the difference!

 

[OnlQQker]

You couldn't make this stuff up!

 

[telectrix]

So what do we all reckon , No Deal Brexit in the morning ..l?

 

[Mike Johnson]

Hope so, then we can get on with the rest of our lives.

Let's not turn this thread into political drivel.

Past caring now...nothing I can do will change anything. However, whatever deal or no deal happens, a few weeks down the line some hundreds of problems will appear that no-one thought of...and we and our former European cousins will find a work-around.
"Hello, is that BMW Sales in Germany?"
"Ja...I mean yes!"
"Ok, I'd like to buy some cars please, to sell in England"
"Sure, no problem...how much discount do you want? We can ship them to Eire, and the guys will drive them over the border then put them on the ferry to Stranraer...Nicola will ignore them as she is a friend of ours"
"OK, that's brilliant! I'll email you the exact specs tomorrow morning."

 

[pirate]

Oops, sorry Westy...I just did! To be fair, i didn't see your admonishment til i had posted. Anyway, it's a "light" thread, so not a real problem.

Reports of the possibility of electrical power shortages are becoming increasingly widespread.​

Oppose this blatant scare mongering by helping people to fight such propaganda. JOIN THE RESISTANCE !

So my kids at secondary school have been told to self isolate. Early xmas holidays...
but what does this mean for me working?
They are staying in the house, neither have symptoms, but one kid on their bus has had a positive test.
Do I have to stay in? Please? I could do with a week off.
Also eldest is coming home from uni on Friday... and she’s had tests, and is safe to travel.
She is, however, also bringing the boyfriend with her for a few days. Just to top it off this week, he’s vegan, so there’s going to be some interesting things for dinner.

On a lighter note. In my Lego Star Wars advent calendar the other day, I got a small model of the Razer Crest ship from The Mandolorian. I just left it in a little pile of bits.

Spoilers .??

 

[David Prosser]

Couldn't get my lad a Lego Star Wars advent callender this year as only ones left available were silly money. He had to make do with the City one. I noticed the Harry Potter ones were all in the clearance sale !

Why are you wasting it on a child?

I think mine was 25 from Tesco, but other places were almost double that.

 

[Dustydazzler]

Who spends 25£ on an advent calendar

mine was 1£ from the poundshop

 

[David Prosser]

I bought it for my lad, didn't say he gets to build the models. While he's distracted with the maltesers calander I get the little bag open and "start" it for him.

Don't you like the Mandalorian then ?

Yes, I do... but after the episode a couple weeks back, thought it a waste of time to build it.
I suppose I could have built it, then pinged it off the table...
Anyone else think baby Yoda is turned into a little ----?

[Mike Johnson]

Disgusting, that dog does not know how to use a first person past participle correctly. ?

 

[telectrix]

what does youse expect? dog barks don't run to past participles, only to " i want food/pi$$/sleep/fuss." apart when the postman calls.then it's fun time for canines.

 

[Mike Johnson]

I got home last night to find doors ripped off their hinges and windows torn out of their fittings.

That's the last time I leave my advent calendar in the same room as my cat.

1. The World Health Organization announced that dogs cannot contract COVID-19. Dogs previously held in quarantine can now be released. To be clear, WHO let the dogs out.

New Christmas Covid Tests...

 

[pirate]

Ok, I was bored...
Have trouble telling your 1mm from your 1.5, or 2,5, or 4?
Cut a small length of each and bung 'em in a Wago as a ready guide.
Also on the Wago trail...
Keyrings!
I have a Van Vault which needs 2 keys, one at each end... so put both of them on a loop on a Wago. It keeps them together in your pocket, but really easy to release them.

Working at a clinic the other day all the usual Covid saftey signs. Then found these on most of the chairs. I not sure what training I need to sit down !!!!
