You are the GOAT in every way Marky.

And if anyone is looking for a thoroughly entertaining Twitter feed to follow, he's your man. To read how he trolls the anti-vacc & COVID deniers is such a delight.

I've been know to get the goat on occasion, though much less regularly in my old age.

I've tried not to get too involved on there, as I'm not much good once it gets too scientific, and work is too busy. I didn't realise you'd be seeing any of my droning on.

It helps that some of them are even dumber than I am, which although astonishing, is highly amusing

Bloody Covid caught up with me eventually.
Not nice.

Now, you've got COVID now?

It affects us all differently, but I don't ever want to go through it again.

GWS David, & please keep us informed when you feel up to it.

[Marky147]

Yeah, hope you're feeling better son, Bood!

I've had it a couples times now, and the first was the worst. Nothing terrible, other than achy/cold thankfully, but I couldn't smell/taste for 3 or 4 days.

I'd probably have gone off a bridge if I lost sense of taste for the rest of my life!

All that after-shave & you could not smell it?

That was how I realised!

 I had a shower, and couldn't smell a thing when I sprayed up

I can confirm that Boo does smell but has no taste. I don't think Covid will change that.

Get well soon mate.

Well played, sir

              2nd place  bacon and fried onion sandwiches

[tikay]

Love a happy ending, well done Boo.

Beyond shocking that your Mum had to wait 2 x 5 hours though. Less talk more action from the politicians, that is just not acceptable in a modern civilised society.

[RED-DOG]

Phew!

Glad things are going the right way but what a shambles the NHS is at the moment.

They do their best. TBF We have never had to wait more than an hour when we have rung 999 with heart attack symptums
