If you need a 144 toilet rolls you are probably already dead. Nice to think you thought of the welfare of those given the task of laying out your body. JS

Keith, I would never eat any of the offerings on the bar after being in the toilet and seeing the number of people not washing their hand s then digging into the nuts (after scratching their own nuts) and crisps. Rgds Den

Re: No Toilet Rolls, Get yours free ?
A sailor walks into a bar, sits down, and orders a drink. The bartender gives him his drink, accompanied by a bowl of peanuts.
To his surprise, a voice comes from the peanut bowl. "You look great tonight!" it said. "You really look fantastic... And that aftershave is just wonderful!"
The man is obviously a little confused, but tries to ignore it.
Realizing he has no cigarettes, he wanders over to the cigarette machine. After inserting his money, another voice emits from the machine. "You BA?TARD... Oh my god you STINK... Do you know, you're almost as ugly as your mother."
By now, the man is extremely perplexed. He turns to the bartender for an explanation.
"Ah yes sir," the bartender responds, "The peanuts are complimentary, but the cigarette machine is out of order."

Apparently Great Thunderburg is very mad about all of this.
She has screamed, 'Stuff the virus, the world is supposed to die from Climate Change, not this"

Re: No Toilet Rolls, Get yours free ?
Should get a better idea this Sunday on people’s supposedly isolation . As is the time for the men’s group I am a member of to run a sausage Sizzle at Bunnings . At the present time they have no objections to doing so, but what comes in at the cash till compared with other times will be interesting . As regards hygiene all staff wear gloves and aprons and caps. I am the money handler, so any germs floating around will probably be the source of any such. Is hard to handle money with gloves on and unless told otherwise have no intention of doing so. Anyone for sausages ! JS

#36; In reality;
As more countries order citizens to avoid large public gatherings in order to stop the spread of the disease, the 17-year-old Swede on Wednesday encouraged her followers to “find new ways to create public awareness & advocate for change that don’t involve too big crowds.”
“We can’t solve a crisis without treating it as a crisis and we must unite behind experts and science. This of course goes for all crises,” Greta Thunberg.

Don't know how many people are living on this earth of ours, and I mean with more than two brain cells, but according to the news reports FIVE THOUSAND people have died from the virus so far, how many people in that time have died of heart attacks or cancer, and still thinking world wide, gun deaths in the States or car accidents. Something skewiff somewhere.
