I spent a lot of the day gardening, while The Wife (tm) spent an hour or so on a Zoom call with senior people from an organisation that is one of the biggest employers in the world/
I wish I hadn’t overheard bits of the conversation.
The UK is reporting we have better standards of PPE than WHO say we need. This is because currently the UK doesn’t have stock of the right stuff, so is using the better stuff. When we run out, we have nothing.
The UK hasn’t advised funeral directors on how to deal with the bodies. They get double bagged in the hospitals then the FDs are treating them normally.
There’s going to be an increase in CV-19 in the funeral industry.
I heard other stuff that makes me worried/scared, but The Wife (tm) has given me the look of “you didn’t hear that”
And after that, I couldn’t decide what I felt like, and ended up falling back on a rewatch of the poor teen's Hunger Games, i.e. the first of the Divergent series, which happens to be called Divergent (2014). Silly nonsense, of course, but quite good silly nonsense as this stuff goes. There were supposed to be four of them, but the fourth has been abandoned because the star decided she didn’t want to make any more, and as the series is built entirely around her character they would have struggled a bit with it. Anyway, it’s pretty good fun if you don’t mind stuff intended primarily for an audience of teenage girls, and as The Hunger Games shows, teenage girls have quite good taste in films
I read the book series first - the first book was good, the rest rubbish.
I struggled to watch to the end of the first film. Were there really more?
Wasn't sure if you were still alive. Thought that Brenda was going to announce your passing on tomorrow night's speech...
You can blame it on the "Slanty-eyes" since you have form!
Still here old boy. Though that indigestion had me wondering at times last night.
Slanty eyes? Afraid you're very much mistaken there. That's an outdated racial term I wouldn't wish to be associated with. Slitty eyes - that was my gaffe.
