i wasn't talking about you, my good friend. It seems as though Jon won't say anything. that's fine.

Irrespective of what you think. I certainly am not your 'my good friend'. It sounds like a derogatory term. In fact, I don't want to converse with you any more.
Can we now get this thread back on track? If you have nothing constructive to say, then shut your big Yankee mouth. Nobody is interested.

the ignore button is there for you, col.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

Just for clarity, Adam, I don't use the Ignore button. But I have consciously chosen to minimize my responses to you. I am tired of your attitude. You have distracted me once too often. I will not curse you or call you names. I will respond if and when you commit factual errors in some other thread. But otherwise, go have fun. Preferably elsewhere.

What brought that on Richard? I wasn't even talking to you.

I mentioned a while back that I was feeling ill after someone coughed close to me on the tube, well actually I was properly ill after that for about 12 days, with a fever and a cough and generally feeling tired all the time. I did have a tight chest but no real breathing difficulties, I am starting to wonder if I did actually catch the corona virus, now that they are saying it could have been in the UK since Jan.

I am going to try and have one of the new anti body tests when they are available.

I have also signed up for the NHS Volunteer responder service, which is a way that normal people can help the health service by delivering food and medicine to people who are self isolating. It is totally safe, you are not coming in contact with people, you drop food at their door move away and let them come out and pick it up, they drop the money on the doorstep and after they are gone you pick up the money, sanitise it, santise yourself and put the money in a sealed bag.

I am quite excited about it, it will be good to help out others and quite frankly it will be good to get out the house with a legitimate reason.

Glad you won your personal battle and it is good to hear/read things like this. People helping people...we seem to have gotten away from that.

Richard,

I find it quite interesting that all of this is happening at once:

=> the flu
=> the virus
=> allergy season

I have been feeling run down for about a week now, but more than likely that is because I don't sleep very much. I have a soar throat as well and a cough. but NO, it's not the virus. I have heard though, that if you do contract the virus and your immune system is fine, it leaves your body within 3 weeks or so. Is that true? I wouldn't know, as I don't watch the news.

I think you need a vacation. I hear cruises are really cheap at the moment.

If that is true; how is it that you have time to hang-out here doing non-productive "work"?

 

[NauticalGent]

@moke123, I don't think your point was taken!

 

[Minty]

I believe our mainly ignored person lives in an alternative reality where time, space and thought are all distorted...

I'm faster than anybody you know of Steve. That's why

I dont think "faster" is the word any of us would use to describe you.

...don't give a tinkers cuss what annoys you.
Col

Although it is easy to figure out what that term means, I have never heard it. Being the son of a tinkerer, I have been privy to quite a few versions!

That being said, I did a search to see what the good Dr. Google has to say, I came across this.

Does anybody have any idea from where this virus all of a sudden came from? What does your local news says about the source of CoronaVirus?

We had a news a while back that China has announced it has been spread by US (over China) to stop China's improvement.
I also read somewhere that the possibility of it being a bio weapon is high and for some reason it's been spread out.
