    4
    11
    29

    then my guestimates at that rate:
    next week : 75
    the following week: 196
    week after that: 509
    week after that: 1325
    week after that: 3445
    week after that: 8958
    week after that: 23,292
    week after that: 60,559
    week after that: 157,455
    week after that: 409,384
    week after that: 1,064,399

    so within three months we could see over a million deaths in Brazil. Normal flu ?

    I'm sorry, this is a thread for discussion of chutney spoons and pickle forks.

    Best not to try both at the same time though.
    Good advice. I'll remember that next time.

    We all go to the shop in turn and buy something beginning with the next letter of the alphabet but we also have to buy what ever has been bought previously.

    So
    I went to the co-op and bought an apple (to make some chutney)
    Next person went to the shop an bought and apple to make some churney and a bowl (B remember) to mix it in.
    Next person went to the shop and bought an apple to make some chutney, a bowl to mix it in and a chutney spoon to eat it with......
    Do you see?
    Its a test of memory. You are out if you miss something.
    Aliterations and whity references to other purchases make it more fun but are not necessary.



    ** I know this is the internet and we can cut and paste. Thats the point, could take this thread miles away from its starting point and fill the post/thread buffers in no time.

    No, no - in the Pataks factory... I am not sure what bit... but the warehouse was damaged, so they needed to get rid of the stuff... God bless us, I was sick of eating Curry!
