I just took a blood test as part of the UK Biobank's study into Covid-19 and despite having had my first jab towards the end of February, so far I have no measurable antibodies to the virus. Bugger  :( !

At least SWMBO is cooking me a nice roast for lunch, so something nice and positive today...

Hmmmm...

Don't know what to say re the antibodies, Steve....IS that 'normal' ?

Anyway...Send us a food parcel,....I could murder a roast din-dins, today.

Cheers - Phil. :)

I don't know Phil but that's the point of the research, as this is all rather new territory. I had hoped to have some sign, but absolutely zilch on the test strip! Still it's all useful info going forward.

As for the roast dinner, this is the first I've had since around Xmas, so I'm sorry but no food parcels today ;).

YOU UTTER, UTTER 'WOSSNAME'

(We've not had a roast since Christmas either....Too much hassle. ;D ;D)

No one cares for the starving 'artiste'.  :'( :'( :'(

I thought was quoting that nice Mr Cleese from the 'Architects' sketch.  ....No....He does say 'artist'...not artiste.

Sorry Phil, I know you don't want to hear this, but the beef was so tender and tasty, it was a pleasure to eat :d! Luckily we have a very good local butcher, a few hundred yards away, that sources its meat locally and is properly hung. Their home made sausages and chipolatas are a joy, as is the bacon :).

Hey.....YOU can't swim ?

If you can barely swim, Ian......That's an awful lot better than me.

I only used to be able to move in the water if I had a pair of flippers to help.......I just sink....This load of poo about relaxing and 'you'll float'...absolute garbage !!
I must be made of lead.

I haven't tried swimming since I was 11 ?

Nearest I've got to swimming since then, is having a bath.

At least for me This Age of Covid would  be considerably  more difficult to deal with if it wasn't for the quite wonderful 'indie' war game companies  such as Pendraken, Peter Pig, Alternative Armies and Red3
