New York Times issues correction after it erroneously implied that British people "flocked to swamps" during lockdown.

Just a few miles from me - suicide by tractor.

A deathless 24 hours in London. Zero virus deaths in Scotland yesterday. I'm going to create a master list, er, soon. In the meantime, incurable optimist @deadsox and his June 21st guess looks to me not beyond the realms of possibility.

You absolute hypocrite 1. Don't post adult content on the main forums (logged in members will see a Saturday Night Bar area where this is permitted.) 2. Don't post purely for the sake of inflaming other posters (known as trolling), we're looking for your opinion not how good you are at riling people up. 3. Treat other posters with respect and courteously

Apparently Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones has previously had leukemia and is shielding in his London flat, saying covid-19 would be a death sentence.

@Pedro67 great to have you back and feeling better. Take care and I hope you can try alcohol again soon Personally, I think any member who beats cancer can have a thread of their own!

My father and his father both barely made 50, while the female members of the family survived to reach a ripe old age. My grandmother celebrated two silver wedding anniversaries with different husbands, which I am told is a fairly rare feat.

Zero deaths from corona reported in Devon and Cornwall today. I think Northern Ireland had a deathless day earlier this week as well.

Marianne Faithful on R4 Today show just now, sounding rough as hell and particularly ancient, although she states she has completely recovered from covid-19.

I'd like to suggest two people, both called Betty Davenport. The first Betty Davenport is, since 1961, the proprietor of the world's oldest magic shop, which was founded by her grandfather in 1898. She is now 86 - although she did look pretty healthy in the documentary I was just watching about Tommy Cooper. The second Betty Davenport is actually Betty Davenport Ford, an American sculptor of some renown, who was born in 1924 and popped up first when I googled her namesake.
