  1. Indeed, watched the chief scientific officer say that the NHS was well used to providing their information on a daily basis, if that is the case there should be no weekend fluctuation, and as we have seen before some days have included some poor souls who died almost 2 weeks before their demise was recorded by said NHS system. The stats around this have been mismanaged from day 1.
  2. Because coronavirus is a notifiable disease I believe it has to be included on a death certificate it doesn't necessarily mean that it was a cause of death merely that it was present, the same would be true of chicken pox for the same reason.
  3. Deffo not but I was young. I took my younger brother to see the Powerslave tour at the Apollo and the balcony was bouncing, he was telling the tale to my mother the following day and the looks I was getting from her were deadly!! Happy days.
  4. Big fan still drag out the Women in Uniform ep from time to time for nostalgia
  5. They aren't here as yet, there was reported on the BBC that a local nursing home has had 13 deaths although only one who died in hospital was confirmed with Covid 19 the other old folks exhibited some signs but weren't tested, so can't be confirmed, stats down here are unreliable.
  6. Yeah I get that but he was unwell in London and now he's unwell in Berkshire? Whatever sympathy we have he should still have returned to Downing Street not his second home as per his Government's instruction!
  7. I see from the BBC site that The Rangers say they won't be bullied, nearly choked on my coffee, the irony of that statement.
  8. If The Rangers' suggestion is to void the season and hand out the prize money I can only assume that as the results are void that the relevant prize money is distributed evenly among the Premiership clubs or better still all the prize money for the four leagues is divided evenly among all the SPFL clubs, what a mananimous gesture on their part that would be but I suspect that isn't what they are saying.
  9. My reading of it was that they were responding to fans who had expressed a wish to support the club financially and have done this so that those fans can do so and have something to show for it, for those showing faux outrage there is no compulsion on anyone to purchase the season ticket.
  10. Yes, the least objectionable and easiest to implement would be it ends as it stands now unless ghey come ip with a way of completing the pre split games before the June contracts ending date
  11. I'm assuming they are calling them Nightingale after Florence on the basis of them being like the field hospitals from the Crimea war where Florence had what can only be described as a mare. Hope they aren't expecting the level of success she had there.
  12. Now changed to 'with the virus' on the BBC site
  13. You know when they set up the league tables at the start of the season and it is always in alphabetical order, if they are The Rangers why the hell are we always bottom?
  14. Loved the Bosch novels and Titus Walliver is great in the role, always usefjl go have the author on board for ghd tv series too.
  15. Wonder if they are testing more people? I'm on leave currently but had a message that we are closed for 3 weeks so won't be back at work until after Easter, office of over 600 people so makes sense.
  16. 76 years old so following the known vulnerability pattern
  17. Supposed to be going to San Francisco for the good ldy's 50th but obviously that's not happening. Had to take the leave anyway so off for 2 weeks. Apart from the bizarre shopping experience and pubs etc being shut, I am going to read a whole load of things I haven't got to and have rediscovered the Playstation [emoji3]
  18. 18th May 1987, returned to uni after a victorious weekend and wore my saints scarf for thr rest of the term and my finals, bloody loved it and got lots of drinks from the Dundee fans! Happy days!
  19. You missed out 9 quid, part time and proper strips from your list of usual subjects
  20. Had a difficult childhood in the 70s but the constant source of, at times, side splitting mirth all came from Conmolly, a huge part of my humour education and having seen my dad succomb to dementia I can imagine the sadness and frustration his family and friends are feeling but the legacy he has provided is immense. Not gone yet though and I expect the odd gem between now and the end.
  21. Indeed, normally I would make sure I came up for cup games, but a saturday night in weather conditions like that with the prospect of getting home at half past midnight at the earliest too bloody right I stayed away, Ricky do us a favour and drop the super fan nonsense!
  22. I've read the proposal, watched the video, asked and had answered my questions and have now voted. I really do like the idea of the link up with Kibble and acknowledge the need for the expertise on offer but I still can't see why the shares are required to achieve the aims and requirements of both the club and Kibble, as a result i've voted no. I'll continue to pay my monthly cash no matter what the result so let's see what the result is on Friday.
