  1. It's bollocks really, isn't it.
  2. So that is 4 points lost in one match ?
  3. We have 1 more than we had at kick off.

    Coronavirus

    Walking around The Mall in Blackburn yesterday at least 40% of people were not wearing masks, despite signs telling them to, and many of those that had masks looped over their ears had the mask itself folded under their chins. I wonder how much of this is an anti-Boris effect, deliberately flouting anything the gibbering fool comes up with.
  5. Now below us in the table.

    Coronavirus

    Samples are taken from infected people, eg from testing kits submitted or hospital admissions, and these samples then have their RNA genome determined. About 10% of all samples taken from patients in the UK have this done, and the results are uploaded into an international database. ( By comparison, the US only sequences about 1% ). To date the UK has posted over 1 million results on the database. There are a number of regional laboratories that do this work - the area in which a variant is detected is therefore known, as is the proportion representing any specific variant.
  7. No, because I use English english.
  8. Gentlemen
  9. For Americans of the right colour; "I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. ... I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from the Indians. Our so-called stealing of this country from them was just a matter of survival. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves" Marion Morrison, ( aka John Wayne ), interviewed in Playboy 1971.
  10. Our electoral system, for better or worse, produced this as the Government of choice, ( people have their own ideas as to how legitimate and 'democratic' the process is ). At the next election you are welcome to go out campaigning for change, and perhaps you will be convincing enough to sway votes in Labour's favour. People could clearly see what they were voting for with Boris, and were satisfied that given a choice between a Boris Brexit and Corbyn it was a no brainer. As the song says - "The Christmas you get, you deserve".
  11. Trolls' brains turn into super-computers when exposed to freezing temperatures. ( © Terry Pratchett ). ( This thread has the potential for many ironic postings ).
  12. Salt
  13. And we are bottom of the form table.
  14. He's 2026 years old, hardly 'little baby' Jesus.

    Did he have an Indian accent and sound like he was calling from a Calcutta call centre ?

    Coronavirus

    More likely the time delayed effect will kick in later. 'They' need to spread the mass extinction out to make it less obvious.
  17. Remember, your slaves become the masters of your household for the day.
  18. With gluttony and avarice.
  19. Isn't he the Roman God of inter-stellar travel ?
  20. The Western Christian churches use Dec 25th, which was previously the date of the Roman festival Natalis Solis Invicti, but the Eastern Orthodox churches use Jan 6th. Additionally, most evidence points to the year of Jesus' birth as being 5bc.
  21. If we keep this thread going until July30th it will be accurate.

    Formula One

    Mercedes look like they were anticipating iasues before the race started - they have taken a barrister in to see the stewards and the appeal panel. Where did they find a barrister at short notice ?

    Formula One

    Quite. Unless the track is impassable the VSC should be used. If it is impassable then red flag.

    Formula One

    If they had let all the back runners past so as to restore the status quo the race would have finished behind the SC. For whatever reason Race Control decided that the title should be decided by a straight shoot out between the drivers who were joint leaders in the championship going in to the race.

    Formula One

    The SC came out with 6 laps to go. Unless they had deployed the virtual SC instead how are they supposed to maintain positions ? What if they had red flagged the race and then had a full restart from the grid for the last 5 laps ?
