Just to close off. I would like to see a picture of Capy's, Mary's wooden leg to make sure there are no pricks in it we know he can be very devious.

Re: ante covid vaccination
I see on the media that Guy Verhofftwatt, the Belgian European minister is gloating that this is a reminder of what is going to happen with the lorry situation when we exit the EU. It seems to escape him, that this is largely a European driver rescue plan, kt

well des i cannot reveal who has a photo of marys leg ....as he has paid to have all copyright ....and indeed has one of her old ones in his outside dunny.....the only clue i could give is the leg is in the southern hemisphere in a place near perf......it is the leg with the ball bearings off the engine of the old tug northsider ....which used to berth.. in north shields of course ........outside the jungle......mary cherished that leg as she could get up the bank to the old Ballarat much easier with the ball bearings .....it is said after she struggled up the hill he used to grease her bearings ...and she reciprocated.....ps she had to bring her own grease.......regards cappy

Re: ante covid vaccination
This morning when I checked my wife into a hospital on the Gold Coast, we had to put an app on our phones, and check into a special picture every time we entered the hospital. When I asked the young nurse whether that was at the hospital entrance or the ward entrance, she said better the ward entrance, if you check it at the hospital entrance we have to check you little green thing at the ward entrance. I jokingly said, in public, and sshe laughed. Now in deeper **** with wife.

Re: ante covid vaccination
[QUOTE=Victoria Moss;
Some of these vaccine producers are very big companies so there are all sorts of patents etc. that can be involved that the average person is simply unaware of.
Lets hope those trucks that are lining up in Kent do not have any of this vaccine on board, Cheers.[/QUOTE]
Thank you Victoria for your response. None of the trucks queueing in Kent have any vaccines in them. Trucks and other vehicles from France and the rest of the EU via Dover and other ports are entering the UK as normal, it is the French, Dutch, Belgians, Danish etc who had closed their borders even to their own citizens currently in the UK; the UK did not and has not closed its borders (but will get the blame!). However the situation was resolved at 0500 hours this morning, all truck drivers have to have a covid test, results in 20/30 minutes and can proceed if clear, which will take some time. The military will be conducting the tests. UK nationals with properties in France will be allowed to travel into France, other people not.
I also have medical (Doctors) in my family, but I feel sure that everyone, medical or not, is aware that medicines have patents.
So far the chemo tablets seem to be doing their job.
On another matter, latest reports from my shipping insurance sources state it is coal being held outside Chinese ports and not ores, so my unreserved apologies to you for misinformation.

hi keith
i think we will have the last laugh, if we get out of the eu with no deal,
as for the lorry jam at dover i believe five hundred of those lorries are french drivers, whom are going back empty after delivering their load,

But i did not, i left that to the individual reader to glance at and if they where so inclined they could go and seek further imformation themselves.
this im afraid is a totally different way from that of the ( daily herald ) whom sweeps up large amounts of unnecessary imformation and deposits it on the site time after time and without any knowledge or experience in most cases of what he is actually pointing out.

Re: ante covid vaccination
500 drivers are Irish and will have to turn and back and their cargo will be discarded because it is perishable.
