Here are the same people trying to scam me. Very nearly fell for the same trick. The number they call you from shows on your phone as being your bank, they are persistent, aggressive and know the system inside out. I’m convinced they are either current or ex Bank employees.

Someone buried their favourite snacks deep in our garden in 1995 so no one in the future forgot their existence #monstermunch #skips #tango #expiredmay95

We are really sad to share the passing of Lloyd Cowan MBE. He was such a friendly welcoming and motivational character. Who coached athletes from grassroots to international level! Our condolences go out to our athlete @Dwaynecowan and his family 🙏❤️💛🕊

The implications of such a late about-turn are so dangerous. People having to go to rammed supermarkets, cos they thought they were eating elsewhere. Vulnerable people who will be left alone, no gifts in the post, no food, cos it’s too late for anyone to make alternative plans.

I defy you not to tear up #vanjones #bidenharis2020
Van Jones was emotional talking about Joe Biden becoming the next President of the United States

Indeed.
What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate.

For those wanting to see a concession speech, this one by John McCain — congratulating Obama in 2008 — is worth watching again. See how he faces down the boos from his own supporters. Very few greater moments of humility.

Female RTC/Academy 9-18s = lockdown for 4 weeks. Male Academy 9-18s = carrying on for 4 weeks. Both run by different governing bodies. Same level of Elite/Grassroots Pyramid. – at West Midlands, England

A huge loss. What a woman. Rest in Power the Notorious #RBG you gave American women and women all around the world, hope and an incredible role model
Harvard’s Law School accepted 500 students in 1956. Only 9 women were allowed in. She was a foot shorter than everyone else in the room. But ten feet tall in history’s eyes. #RIPRBG

Kamala Harris: "He inherited the longest economic expansion in history from Barack Obama and Joe Biden. And then, like everything else he inherited, he ran it straight into the ground."

Month 4 of this and still people struggling with the concept that this is about the spread of infection not personal risk.
I’m 23 years old. I like pubs. I feel safe. I’ll probably go to a pub. If you are a lot older, don’t like pubs, or don’t feel safe then don’t choose go to one. Common sense. Not hard.

Elimination involves: mass testing (to catch all symptomatic & asymptomatic carriers), tracing, & isolation. Physical distancing from others, & use of face masks when distancing is not possible for specified period of time. Short-term pain for long-term gain.

Reality check: Germany (pop 83million) running 200-300 cases per day and sudden outbreak is 1000 cases from a factory. UK (pop 66million) running 1200-1500 cases per day. Like an equivalent big outbreak everyday in the UK.
