It's important we all take the right measures during these difficult times...

No wonder I've not had a cold for 20 years. Trading, self isolating and pornhub, I was years ahead of the game.

This is good advice. Time to add both flashlights and fleshlights to my preppers list of survival items.

Surely all the masturbation I did as a teenager buys me a few more decades?!

Surely it can't hurt to be on the safe side of things Pat. Unless you overdo it of course.

Better not boost your immune system while trading or you could fall asleep on the job.

If you've seen one naked cheerleader you've seen them all, nuns and dwarves were interesting though! :)

Anyway porn lied to me, no matter how many times I dressed up as a plumber for halloween nobody ever invited me back to theirs to fix the washing machine ;)

We were a little slow in converting our pension portfolio to cash over a week ago but saved us a fortune yesterday/last few days. :shock:

Tbh I quite like our govt's response; cos it explains why biases exist in the market

I bet they'll ban mass gatherings when cases rise...... & that's how punters lose their shirts :)

In fact, China's a brilliant example! Dr Li sounds the alarm 30th Dec, Chinese govt silence him (lol :roll: ), then, 1mth later, go full draconian. Too late, tooo fricken late!!! That was the 17:15 @ Taunton :mrgreen:

I reckon the panic will be over by then. People will eventually start realising that the panic itself is actually more dangerous than the bug plus the boredom factor will set in unless there are a serious level of mortalities to sustain the fear. Doesnt normal flu kill about 17000 a year or circa 1400 a month?

In a happier vein. was watching Stuwart Copelends documentary Adventures in Music (which is brilliant and I recommend that EVERYONE watches it (https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m ... -episode-1). there was a section in it where he goes along to a Toronto based outfit called Choir!Choir!Choir!.

As it says in their blurb:

Choir! Choir! Choir! is a Canadian musical choir, based in Toronto, Ontario. Instead of a traditional organizational model, the choir is structured as an open participation group where anybody who wants to attend an event is welcome to perform as part of the choir.

Anyway, as i was saying, this little clip will really cheer you up, it did me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJRsWJqDjFE

G'nite - Enjoy....
