      Yeah, sounds like you know what you're talking about
      Lol. Just sharing with you what I've come across. Each to their own.

          I could ravish through the net looking for articles I read 1-2 months ago but cba. If I come across any, I"ll surely share them. I'm sure they'd be quite easy to find if you wanted to look.

            OK, here's a tip: Next rumour/speculation you feel the need to post, either post a link to the source, or your posts will start to go "missing".
            If you cba to put in the effort, then I cba to let your posts stay.

              Sorry but.. I was watching I think it was Sky News last night, and they were talking about some families in Africa (bear with me, it's CoVID 19 related) who were sharing one water spout and one toilet between 19 families and they were worried about catching CoVid 19.

              My first thoughts were "If they can live in those conditions, 19 families, one loo and one tap, the CoVID virus doesn't stand a cat in hells chance of getting a look in".

              My second thought was why the heck were they wasting valuable news time telling us about a family in Africa I'll never meet?

              I mean if they would stop with the shouty panic headlines and actually told us something useful such as:

              How many have tested positive in the UK.
              How many have tested positive but didn't need hospitalisation.
              How many that did need hospitalisation are now over the virus.

              Instead of just totting numbers up to make it look worse than it is. I for one would be a lot less inclined to treat it as nothing more than a popular news story now Megan and William are out of the country.

                    They would have had a captive audience.
