Well that is good news, and I am sure welcomed by Tommie.. me also, as I look forward to driving to Carlingford, taking the ferry across and cycle along the shore of the Mournes, when this madness has abated.

. Sorry, flecc, has the NI executive made ebikes legal? If so I missed that piece of world news

..Oh no you don't ... That would be NI!.

..look back, I tried a few times, but there is no learning some people.

T. May had a huge sense of duty.

I assume that is the British interpretation of riding and not the Dublin one?.The latter certainly merits reporting. Now if you were on a Galway beach you have certainly exceeded the PSNI let alone Gardai limits ..Shame on you!!!.

Save your breath to cool your porridge, Tommie, my polite entreaties to that quarter have been rebuffed.

Flecc, they may even be more canny than the Scots. They might well end up with the very best of both UK and EU offers. .Linked to Ireland and the EU for food standards, and the UK as a market to sell into.

Tommie, saying" across the water " is very reconciliatory, I would have assumed you would refer to them others as being " on the mainland". .. Many of my Northern friends use that term,

..and you have the phone transcript?

I am not going to be party to this witchhunt, but if Cummings states that his wife phoned him saying she was ill, and she and her child needed minding, then what he did was not only legal,in terms of the guidelines, but could be seen as heroic!

Sometimes I wonder why I bother. But today Friday, the USA number is quoted at 96,000 dead. And currently running at about 1.5K deaths per day. Now everywhere else in the world it has been shown that at this stage the published deaths are a fraction of the true rate. There is no reason to...

I have written on this topic before. Picking up the virus is a probability function. Duration and distance matter. Sitting 1 metre away from a person in an open air cafe is likely safer than in the still air of an indoors venue. There are suggestions that tiny droplets containing viable...
