A guy on the telly the other night explained how alcohol kills the Corona virus stone dead.

I'm saved, I'm saved !! :sweat:

One of those sods gets into me, I'll just take another swig, and say: "Suck on that you little f***** !!"

:pint::pint::pint:

I'm drinking pints of Domestos as it reputedly kills 99% of all germs..... bloody awful taste but if followed by several large Black Bush it is palatable. :yawn:

Varley 10th March 2020 12:31

That Greek stuff is almost as bad as the Spanish. Better than Hibernian Black lacquer-lifter I suppose.

Engine Serang 10th March 2020 15:18

I can take or leave Domestos regardless of its origin.

Dartskipper 10th March 2020 18:32

I used to think that Demis Roussos should have used the stage name Domestos. Once he hit those high notes he could send the audience clean out of their minds.

We have a lock down situation here. Cant go west to Davao city or East to Tagum city. we are self isolated at our house. and I spend a lot of time in my little workshop (man cave) so its making so little difference to me. we are short of nothing we need so no problem we even have toilet rolls (for cleaning my glasses). we bake our own breads, grow our own veg so no Panic here Steve...LOL

Varley 16th March 2020 11:32

Self sufficient on vegetables? Are you sure it's only for cleaning your glasses?

Engine Serang 16th March 2020 17:10

Confusis he say; man eat plenty veg need plenty toilet roll. Wise man.

Our Government is battling valiantly, as is the EU, to control the spread of the virus by imposing restrictions on travel and closing borders.

Which must explain why I saw articulated rigs travelling North on the M1 this morning displaying registration plates from Poland, Romania, Germany, Portugal, Hungary, France and Spain.

Yep, our masters of the absurd know exactly what to do.

billyboy 16th March 2020 22:52

we are fortunate here to have 2 bowel disposal areas, (2 Loo's la trec) and both are equiped with "Bum- Gun's" of suitable pressure to be able to dislodge cling on's, Fecal mater, Grapes or whatever. Darned clever these H&W sanitary boffins and at high pressure can remove anything that hangs.(testimonials supported with tother hand of course) Chromium hoses of 1.5 meters in length in order to accommodate the larger of the species.

Very valid point there Dartskipper. Wondered if they had been refused entry.

I'm keeping 3 foot from my laptop when on-line to Shipping History, will I be safe?

BobClay 17th March 2020 13:08

"Is it safe ?"
Depends on who you ask .... :eek:

As long as you are not sharing the CAT 6 socket with an IoT ventilator.

Tmac1720 17th March 2020 14:43

Have no fear about a toilet roll shortage, each head has been retro fitted with a steam purge line direct from the No1 boiler for your convenience. One blast from the orifice to the stern gland will be sufficient to remove any residue of fecal matter, dingleberries, nobbly bits and any remaining skin. No need to thank your kindly injuneers, we are here to assist. Free drinks in gratitude will be gratefully accepted from those standing at the bar (for obvious reasons) :shock::jester:

Varley 17th March 2020 15:46

Unless you've put a non return valve in that line the problem is going to be when you come to clean that convenience. I would put the power of my sprouts vindaloo with baked cabbage and artichoke surprise up against anything Scotch boilers could produce, double ended or no.

I applaud the attempt to make that highland lacquer loosener into drink by boiling but so far it has just been a waste of fuel.

BobClay 17th March 2020 16:02

Pah !!! Bunch of pansies.

There's no sandpaper shortage is there ... ? Perfect substitute. :p

Tmac1720 17th March 2020 16:33

In days of old when men were bold
and toilet roll wasn't invented
They wiped their ass on a bit of grass
and went away contented.

Engine Serang 17th March 2020 19:31

Many boilers have an ogee ring fitted and that's what your ring will be like if you go anywhere near Tmax'ss steam purge contraption.

Wet'n'dry is more economical as you can rinse it off after every use.

Failing that, 40 Grit emery cloth works a treat. Works just like a grinding wheel but without the detrimental effects to the climate as it uses no fossil fuel generated power supply.

All this bog roll stuff is a boon for the cartoonists ....:wink:

Bob, your asteroid looks awfully like a big corona virus. Did T-Rex die in vain.

BobClay 18th March 2020 08:21

I never noticed that ..... it must be a conspiracy ... :eek:

Engine Serang 18th March 2020 09:26

It is of course a conspiracy but is it a Right or Left wing conspiracy?
