@justdavenow89@greencatherine Wife and I had the original vaccine here in NZ. Since then we've had a booster every 6 months or so. Had a mild dose of Covid in late '20. Nothing since. No side effects. Fit and healthy.

By the way, no way am I leaving Twitter. This place is like a lovely pub, that got taken over by some soulless pub company and with a full on wazzock as a new landlord. But I was here first and I’m staying.
@TheCleanCarClub I'm going with... this never really happened. The image has been doing the rounds for a few years and is likely to continue to do so for several more. It's far too ambiguous to be an actual university entrance question
Chris Patten, the sort of intelligent, morally-driven Tory that was permanently ostracised under the Johnson clownshow, has committed another murder.
He’s so angry he even swears twice.
I could watch this all day.
Absolutely superb, as always. 👏
