    Therein lies the problem I think - we will never know and at the same time China are not cooperating with the likes of the WHO. Whether it was an unfortunate accident, deliberate or not remotely linked, their lack of cooperation is not a good look.

      Ah, but a leopard apparently can't. I don't have a credible source for that however, and I haven't seen a leopard up close myself. I have driven one, and a Tiger, but that is a whole different tank of diesel.

        The vaccines won't work because the way that they're going to be used.
        To work we've got to have 2 jabs about 2 or 3 weeks apart. They've said going to have it about 2 or 3 months apart, by the time have the second one the first would have worn off to much. They're thinking of giving a different one for the second one they don't know if that will work. I think that they haven't ordered enough vaccines.

        We got to save the NHS because there's so many patients with covid in hospital that they can't treat anything else.

            ex police car.....was ours for many years..fast very fast...This is Beddington Surrey and the car is parked right next to the River Wandle..no barrier then so we all had our moments for a quick unplanned dip...33 years living there, time has changed it so much on the corner right where the white part fencing surrounds the steps of our neighbour..its now the most hideous block of flats with underground parking....the Lane is like a Main Road now .Asda up the Lane and many many Stores and Works surrounding the area..traffic was a real issue in 2000, we moved to Bexhill on Sea...

              @Logan I know they have extended the interval between vaccine doses, but they are saying it is ok to do that, I dont think they would do that otherwise, but who knows, we have been fed all kinds of rubbish during this, lets just hope they are right on this one.

                    I am so unkind 'dear leader' we had TWO Rover 3500's ,but just for a few weeks until we found and bought the other one...that was not a Police Car so it had power steering and an auto gearbox that had all working gears...The Police Car however had no power steering hence weight training biceps...and the auto gearbox could not select 1st gear..straight into 2nd and wroom as in the chase...it had holes in it... for the siren and telephone over and out...had 4 screw holes in the dash board for a speed monitor also a hole where the ariel would have been.we added the wheel on the boot which is standard...the gearbox was a Red Borg- Warner..heavy duty and the vehicle did fly...given the chance of course.:dbgrtmb:

                      Some local news - I'm not sure how much longer this can still be called 'news':

                      People are "blatantly" ignoring rules on lockdown restrictions despite repeated warnings, police have said.

                      More than 100 cars had been turned away from Moel Famau on the Flintshire border by Saturday lunchtime, with some driving past "road closed" signs.

                      In Snowdonia, Gwynedd, a warden said a group from Leicester would have "probably ignored our advice" if police had not arrived and told them to leave.

                        Perhaps, pete, but my point was that it was no "Cat out of the Bag", surprise or sudden revelation.:dunno:

                        They are strict here and people do not break the rules, hardly at all..Our English neighbours do as they please and we stay well away from them. We are Rural France maybe built up areas might well be different IK do not know..I can only speak for our area. I broke, accidently a brief mask rule and got told straight away..madame mask ,please.....I still feel guilty, was a brief slip up not to be repeated for sure..The Police can be harsh, from years ago when we travelled a lot around France we got that impression, but here there just a small police station, but honestly I have only seen one police the other day in months...so it is not that reason people keep to the rules maybe like us, common sense.

                          It was a bit of a shock but here is what happened....
                          Our oldest disowned son his partner had left the home they shared with their two children our Grandkids...emptied the house even the lightbulbs were gone...I can say hand on heart he treated her and the kids as a family would she was as it turned out a fouled mouth slightly mad personna..The reason we were travelling up to Newcastle on Boxing Day with our 1st son already up there...we set out at 4.00am and buy 6.00am I was driving and admit to going rather fast on a empty motorway..I saw a police car pull on at a junction..felt a bit uneasy so put my foot down and when the car wanted to pass I slowed down a tad..I was requested to pull over..so that is why I was in the back on their Police Car with one either side like I felt I had committed a serious crime.breathalyzed.... almost felt I could not breath to much...just in case... all was negative so I was released...told about my slightly fast then slower actions and let off with a warning..watch you speed...We had Xmas celebrations with just Mr. W and myself because of Mother knowing our plans for Boxing Day was fuming that we would wish to travel all that way for 'them' up there....and not spend our time with her.....

                            What i can't understand is, retired doc's and nurses who want the help with the jabs has to fill out 23 forms and go through all the hoops, yet one of these new vaz's centres is training people with no medical experience to do the jab's

                            I wonder if i could help, i use to jab cattle :biggrin: trained by a vet
