En Passant

So you added your own

hm. zero deaths attributable or reported? I have a feeling that by the time we are on the downside of this, getting any sort of accurate reporting is unlikely? Once it's down to a trickle (relatively) where are we going to get the information? Can't see them being reported daily if down to single figures longer than a month or so. So, 1st June as the first day none are reported, even if sometime later they are attributed. And I've confused myself now too.

True but with a worldwide pandemic the like of which hasn't been seen for 100 years and that has just put our PM in intensive care, plus pretty much all of the list having "underlying conditions" you're saying you require that option? Ok, I'll see your no more deaths and raise you any two on the same day and a big row and much obit checking over which was technically first and thus the 8th.

No emoji to give you the finger TQR, had to settle for a grin.

It is a bit curious indeed, we bang on about death constantly, but the act that brings life....not so much please. Though obviously only the vagina part of that has much chance the other two far more hit and miss.

I may have seen a better candidate for the abbreviation tl:dr but I'm damned if i can recall it.

Aye, Carly Simon

Oh but we do. Our Deathers is a fucking institution. Nobody does it better.

And no time soon are 3 unused palaces going to be used as temporary hospitals. I mean, they are bound to be a good bit cleaner than your average hospital what with all the cleaning staff. A footman as a hospital porter... Don't get me wrong I think Liz does a fantastic job and had zero choice about her life, but the whole thing in principle is anachronistic. We need Charlie "Covid? I laugh it off" boy, get a republic soon enough.

Because your predictions up to this point have been bang on?

I don't know any Prines and I'm fast becoming proud of it, .... or indeed primes which is a stupid game people good with numbers play. I am happy to report I care equally about primes and prines. i.e. not much. Chef. ha fair point, it may well have been that.

Dream on. Remind me is tinder the straight or gay one? It's straight from your original heading isn't it? Well, the one I remember when I thought it was Lenny Henry or somebody and you had to tell me it was Ainsley....

TLDR: yes, but who is he?
