@crazycolours Thanks! It’s not nice at times, so much I can’t do for myself; the carer was just here to help with a shower. I have at least one of the kids to help with cooking etc. I’m more or less housebound and very careful, so I’ve not had the plague — double vexed + booster.
@remittancegirl I’m a bit surprised to be still here; I must have had this from late teens. Shortness of breath a bit problem at times, with sore back from veterbral collapse etc.
I trust you are rather better than this!
@remittancegirl Sorry for the delay, only just seen this; I don’t go on Twitter that often now. I’m slowly crumbling away; recently diagnosed with COPD and, of all things, HOCM — hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, an enlargement of the ventricular septum; it can cause sudden death, so...
The story so far. About the failure of public health. Not masks. Look at the death rates in China (pop 1.4bn), Vietnam (100m), USA (340m) and UK (68m). Yes, you cannot see the death curves in the first two because they are so low. (1)
This is the French President trying to keep his temper at what we in Britain know - Johnson betrayed May’s backstop solution and his pretence now that the result of the deal he signed was unexpected is a straight lie. It was his cynical route to power. A breathtaking video clip.
Today @matthancock will attempt to persuade the Commons that he's behaved impeccably throughout this pandemic - and that Cummings’ accusations of serial lying are, themselves, a lie.
But the fact is, @matthancock *has* lied during the pandemic - and I can prove it. (1/16)
And since it is our island’s national saint’s day, give us your St Patrick’s day sounds… https://t.co/Ev758QKBfx
