Touche! ?

 

It's just a notable and marked change in your demeanor. At home, you're all sweet and fluffy, building cribs for your bairns and what not. 

And then you go offshore, and I'm pretty sure you'd pick a fight with your shadow! ?

Ive been in the hotel room for 3 hours.   Ive got snacks and peace and quiet. Its bliss.

 

I fail to see how arguing the toss with the likes of Mark J and now this other loony makes me a Bellend? 

 

 

Could be one of two things, or a combo of both;

 

1, I actually time to respond to twat posts. Where as at home I dedicate my time to my family.

 

2, There's not been any real action here for a while.  We needed something that brings out the more bonker elements in people.

 

But no, my fighting days have long gone. Its much more fun winding these Wingnuts up

And you are taking medical advice from some bloke on the internet.

 

Do you want to buy a tiger stone?

What medical advice have I asked for? What Medical advice was even offered? 

 

Yes please. Sounds pretty.

20 from what I can find

 

Spanish soccer coach, 20, believed to be youngest COVID-19 victim

A soccer coach in Spain with an undetected health condition is believed...

Im sure I read that a child had died from it this week, no doubt it will happen as shiy it is still the top of the iceberg atm. The amount of infections and deaths reported is fck all. Governments don't impose these sanctions for no reason.

I was actually using the term in an almost endearing fashion. It's just hilarious how combative you get when you're on your own. I prescribe a course of Ardbeg Uigeadail forthwith!

Its a 15 year old Bowmore.  But hats off to you, thats a lovely drop! 

 

Im trying to read my new Timber Frame Construction book and getting no where.  Im also trying to figure out where I'll be hiding all the new tools I'll need from the wife.  Next on the list is a Timber Framing Slick. Mmmmmmmmm.

Down to 20! Any advance on 20? You cant find a single link to back up your nonsense?   Maybe you should follow the Docs advice and stop scaremongering?

He's evidently way out of his depth. Luckily he has good advisors.
As I said, fair play for doing something.
Give over on the Tory loving. This is bigger than Red/Blue.
 

Agreed.Mark, but I think anyone would feel and look a bit out of their depth right now.
Being responsible for the lives of scores of millions of people, trying to get them not to die can’t be an easy burden. Probably a good cure for a mild case of megalomania.
Time to stick together and help each other..

It will be interesting to (hopefully) see where things are this time next year.

Shalom! (Live long and prosper)

I'd say the Ardbeg Corryvrecken is even better, but I don't come across it too often. I'm just on poverty spec Laphoaig Quarter Cask at the moment. It's a noteable omission on an otherwise well considered bulk buying list.

 

My Brother bought me a Laphoaig Brodir, very nice. He brought up a bottle of Perpetuum last time they came for a visit. 

 

I'll have to keep an eye out for a bottle of Corryvrecken then.  

 

An 18 year old Highland Park is high on my list. Like a slightly smokey Christmas Pudding in a glass. Perfect in front of the Stove.

I’m a consultant in my local hospital an the only deaths we have had are in elderly people with significant other major medical problems. 

A technical question for you. As an asthmatic I'm a bit worried about getting it. In the past (as a kid) when my asthma was really bad they would put me on prednisolone - it was always a complete return to normal breathing and a few days feeling like superman. Now I know steroids are no good long term because of Cushings etc, but it occurred to me that the killing action of this virus is in part due to the cytokine storm as the immune system fires up and resultant inflammation of the airways, oxygen starvation, heart failure and gone. Now what do you think the result would be of putting a C 19 patient on say 50mg prednisolone and perhaps Omeprazole to protect the gut from the steroids? I know its a complex issue as steroids have an immunosupressive action, but surely that manifests only after prolonged use? Do you think high dose pred or other steroids could keep infected peoples airways open so they don't need to go on a ventilator?

Managed to persuade the 4 older  kids to chip in at Xmas Andy and get me the Robert Sorby 21/2 inch slick ?lovely tool for sure so far unused. With hindsight I’d have been far better off with some good strong morticing chisels to clean out bottom of holes done by the chain morticer.

Your right, the Doc who hasnt seen anyone under the age of 54 die from covid19 is on the money.

 

Hopefully children don't die from it as I have  a 3 and 8 year old. The teenagers to middle aged already think they are immune and are causing issues.
