I expect there will be a run on Vit D now as the media is giving it exposure, but certainly when I bought our last lot it was readily available on-line.

If you're unfortunate enough to catch the disesiel this little jobbie measure your oxygen level in the red stuff; if it falls below 90% (I think) it's time for a 999 call. Fingers crossed, we never have to use it - Rob

Really like to go down with a couple of mates, who have both lost relatives to Covid, and give the bastard a double orchidectomy without anaesthetic.

£1,000 fine obviously not enough. Make it £10k this time, and if he does it again, 6 months prison. And £200 fines for each of the 200 "guests". It amazes me that those responsible for the letting of that school hall for a wedding attended by 400 are getting away with it. Whilst the actual letting was handled by a 3rd party, the head teacher should still be culpable, and why only 5 people were fined I really cannot understand.
And whilst we are at it, I'd fine some of those who spread false news on Covid. Apparently the "empty hospital" that was filmed to prove it was a hoax was the "Out Patients Physiotherapy Dept" at 0800 on a Sunday morning!

remember that it's bojo in charge, so you can expect a knee jerk reaction to this, then a media storm about how it's the EU at fault and it couldn't possibly be because some selfish tit in the big house in Nodnol went and made promises that his * couldn't stretch to.
anyways, rant averted for the day, I've got some nice brown wood drying out next to me and I'm about to get the moisture meter out to see how it's doing. on top of that, from an inital planing it appears to have a slight figuring to it, shame it's only 25mm thick, I'll need to back it with something to get 45mm and that won't be as pretty.

No I know YOU weren’t, I meant the content of the article and the EU response. Diversion from their own cock up...
And yeah, it will be interesting to see the response. Wouldn’t it be refreshing for a change if we just told the truth and said “this is what’s happened, why don’t you (the EU) hold your hands up rather than play a blame game?” Then leave it at that.

Indeed Roger. That's the thing that's slightly worrying me; end of the jour, I don't mind what jab I get as long as I get two within the prescribed time frame. So lets say, somebody gets the Pfizer jab next week and three weeks later (or whatever) supplies might have gone TU for the second jab. What happens then? - Rob

That’s down to the logisticians as to whether they go first jab for more or second jabs as planned...
