Stuff that happened to you that doesnt deserve a thread

@ my work they call it China Flu ,and nobody goes to Cyrildene/Bruma or the massive China malls all over JHB.
 
It’s called andropause and it usually starts much later (above 60). You should check your thyroid function.
The clinic did that - checked, I haven't been called back so it's probably a good thing. The same thing happened about two years ago, had blood drawn for exactly the same thing and doctor in SA said the same thing, everything's normal. That's why I found it so weird - she was even baffled too. But then again, my aunt had fibroids at 42 and my mom had fibroids in her mid 50's so that's probably what it is. I'm due for a scan next Friday to check that out and I don't know, we'll see when we get there.
 
And it’s off to NWU in Potch today, Locust 1 is having his knowledge knocked into his head this morning. Graduation day :D , now he is officially an unemployed graduate, not a student anymore :meparto:. Welcome to the big mans world. :trophy: :number_one: :cheer: :ole:

That's interesting. I feel sorry for the Chinese traders who are being affected, even though they probably haven't stepped foot (or chopstick) in China for months/years. Of course it's possible that the virus could be on the products. I read an article on the Internet in which it was stated that no-one knows for sure how long the virus can last on surfaces - and it also depends on the surfaces. However, one would then not buy anything, be it from a China mall or not, since most things are made in China.

It's quite fascinating - and scary - how a virus can have far-reaching consequences.
 
Congratulations my friend. Can belief it was the proudest moment of your life.
Send them both my regards and congratulation to Locust 1 .
 
So... After about 3-weeks of "sharing" my garage and working around each other. I had to unfortunately remove the Black Mamba today. Ons my way into the garage to fetch some brushes, my black cat snuck past me and was very intrigued by the snake. With reflexes, I did not even know I had, I managed to keep the 2 from getting to each other. So atleast everybody is safe. I called a mate of mine that also catches snakes to come and assist, as a mamba between roof trusses is very seldom a one-man job. She was very placid and an absolute pleasure to handle. She is in the beginning stages of shedding her skin.

That is one heck of a snake! Admire your respect for it, many would have dealt with it in a far less mature way. Respect sir!

Been on leave for the last 3 weeks to sort out some personal things. And in the last 3 weeks the world slightly gone to sh*t.

Now I work in a pathology lab and one of my many responsibilties is to prepare the Covid-19 samples.

All I can say is I've been at work for 3 hours and I need another week of leave.

Just to show that everyone can screw up. Installed new batteries in my HOG and wasn't paying attention
