Daughters Uni in Edinburgh going to video lectures from Wednesday and already have plans for exams either online or in the post. Whether I can get her home is another matter entirely.

I believe we're going to rebuild Hadrian's Wall .... and make the English pay for it

Good Luck with that, it's in England!  So not  sure it will do you much good.

It may be in England NOW ... but only because they stole bits of the country. We'll start by taking back Berwick and work south from there!

Bollocks to that.

Go by sea and take Yorkshire, the only bit worth having.

Come and have a go, if you think you're hard enough!   Scots invasions have a pretty poor success rate.   Does 'The Flowers of the Forest'  mean anything?

A much better option would be an independent Confederation of northern states - Yorkshire, Lancashire and Scotland, and any others up here that want to join. Anything has got to be better than the abusive rule from the Westminster neoliberal village. Flogging the nuke boats back to them with back payment for the dockyard rent will more than pay for it all.

A new variant VBCW.  Just remember to keep it as a Westminster bubble.  For us Londoners it is also a strange and far away country whose inhabitants seem to live in a different world to the rest of us.

I've just put up a quick bit of info regarding Covid and how we're adapting our business: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,19551.0.html

A well written statement Leon, I wont clutter up that thread with this comment

[FierceKitty]

Cheers sir.

I've heard of mining a river, a harbour, a strait, but a beer?! Nanotechnology is really coming on!

[pierre the shy]

Indeed very well written and full of sensible advice.

Well written Leon . The Scottish 'ban' on gatherings of 500 or more is only a suggestion as currently they have no legislation allowing them to enforce it, but common sense would dictate that organisers of various events follow it.

[paulr]

... but common sense would dictate that ...

Like the Australian who decided to fly to New Zealand while waiting for his test results...

Yes he was positive

Oh....FFS !  ..What a complete wonker. (Report this post to Moderator.....Oops ! )

On a lighter note....Some wit on the radio, this morning, had done 'The shopping forecast', as opposed to the 'Shipping forecast.'.....And had done it very well.
It was along the lines of "Tesco's.... stormy, dropping to moderate, then calm.....Aldi....etc, etc".

Did a quick shop, myself, in Tesco's early this morning (to save Von going in later).....A few shelves a bit sparse....But nothing really missing.
Bit short on bread.....But I'm sure that was only because the delivery hadn't been put out...or arrived yet.....Ditto, dog food......Loo rolls...not empty....But rather short.

But they DID have paracetamol. 

Take care chums !

Cheers - Phil
