I'm guessing that she's a surgeon, orthopaedic maybe.

I'm not sure of peoples attitude to the vaccine outside of France, and even here I can only go by what I her and see locally. It's more than possible that other EU countries don't want it. I just don't understand their reluctance to take a very small risk when set against the far,far greater one...

I think the outcome of the legal action by the EU against AZ will make up people's minds. It certainly will for me. I'm willing to believe, for now, the EU would be in a better position if the contract had been honoured. If the court finds it has been then the EU will get the blame but much of...

Not quite the facts. Macron at first questioned the effectiveness in older people and he was proved to be wrong. The restriction to only over 55's having it was as a result of abnormal clotting after have the AZ vaccine. This has been the same in other countries. This information was at first...

I don't think one leader has got dealing with covid spot on. Macron seems to have lost the plot, case numbers still very high and hospitals nearly full, yet he's easing restrictions and the schools are working again. Just like Johnson the leaders seem unwilling or unable to learn from other...

Enjoying all the gags but I would be interested in the build. I've been thinking of making a workshop in the garden for some time and seeing it done may spur me on.

Many thanks for the suggestions.

I'm trying to buy a 12" rule that has the inch scale on the top edge. I can buy inch/metric rules but they come with the inch scale on the lower edge. I lost one where the the scale started at opposite ends so you had to turn the rule the other way if you wanted to swap from inches to...

I think you're correct My error. I used google to check my facts and soon found that he wasn't referring any form of life being a likely. Maybe the Martians will be coming.;)

I built and extension to the house and dug the foundations. I'd never do it again. A lot of back breaking work that won't be done over a weekend. I hit a section of clay at one end and the inspector made me go down another half a metre. During the dig we had a tremendous cloudburst and I can...

I remember Brian Cox exploring in depth what was needed to come together to sustain some form of life and how amazing that it did on earth. When answering the question 'Did he think that life existed other than on earth?' he said he doubted it.

I suppose that's possible, maybe to celebrate the surgeon's 1000th amputation.;)

Certainly not a surgeons saw. They don't have wooden handles. Danish Bacon Company sound right.

Sorry but is this supposed to be encouraging news? Perhaps you should study the bottom line.

Perhaps you can cite some evidence of this? The control of the pandemic is only limited by the supply of vaccine. If you're suggesting the EU should have elbowed its way to get all the vaccine it would have left the UK short of vaccine. Please don't tell me about different contracts, in an...
