These clowns want me to agree to having biscuits with them before allowing me to see their page. No thank you.

So what were they saying?

With the UK now in its tenth week of lockdown, many bored Brits have been getting frisky to keep themselves entertained while at home.






But a new study has warned that having sex could spread coronavirus, and has advised that couples take preventative steps in the bedroom.


This includes avoiding kissing, showering before and after sex, and even wearing masks while having sex.

In the study, researchers from Harvard University ranked different sexual scenarios, based on how like you are to catch coronavirus during them.

Abstinence and masturbation were ranked as ‘low risk’ sexual activities, while sex with people within a household, and sex with people from other households were ranked as ‘high risk’ activities.

While the researchers admit that abstinence isn’t possible for many people, they’re urging people to take certain measures to reduce the risk of spreading the virus
 
Don't think has been peer reviewed or confirmed but the idea that 6-8 months is the lasting time of immunity is getting more traction:

which means herd immunity will not happen, and we will need a vaccine with regular boosters for a while in order to starve off hosts. I think the next 12 months are going to be a confection of excitement and gloom.

I suspect my wife would have a problem with me wearing a mask.

Or not.:-D
 
You’re missing the point @Adephi. These guys are into BDSM!

I could say something truly dreadful here, but it would be called racist. However, in reality it would be a retelling of this old chestnut:

PW Botha is adjusting his homburg in the mirror before stepping out to oppress South Africa some more when his wife (was it Elize?) comes in and says, ‘Do you like my new look?’

PW confesses he can’t see a difference, but asks if she’s changed her hair? No. New shoes? No. Manicure? No. Dress? No. Handbag? No.

Finally he says, ‘I give up. What’s different?’

To which she replies:

‘I’m wearing a gas mask.’
 
Lol sorry i'm a bit slow. And i do get your point about the nic most people cant go without it. My point was not to rule out nic it was just to get some sort of enjoyment not everyone can mix premuim ejuice. You can buy flavors and one shots now without hastles so why not make one shots thats all i was asking. Nic is a problem now no doubt i get it. Sorry for stepping on some toes was never my intensions.

again, as I say "for me" anything without nic is useless

mix all you want without nicotine, I won't

Batten down the hatches, Capetonians! We're in for a rough ride over the next few days, if the weather forecast is correct.

STATS - up 2594 to 50879
Deaths - 1080 - up 82

Here's some interesting facts.

The average death rate for Covid-19 the last 7 days are 53,6 deats per day. The murder rate for the country last year was 57,6 murders per day.

Globally the death count is fast approaching 400k (most of them in the last 3 months). Last year malaria killed 405k world wide.

I don't have sources, I just googled a few figures.

Looking at the graphs over the period, the figures produced at weekends are suspect and they play catch-up on Mondays. Our stats to the WHO seem a bit haphazard in any event - no report was submitted last Thursday (I think it was).
