Yeah it is difficult to keep up with whats what.


Went for a Routine PSA Blood test today. Being close & she didn't require me to wear a mask.

Bugger of a place, No Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck Style Band Aids or Jelly Beans, not even black ones.

I was in Costco in Dockland a week or so ago and it was crammed - and of all the people there only 4 weren’t wearing masks. And one pair of them were clearly wanting someone to say something to them about it.

One of the Bimbo guests was adamant that Portugal & Spain were the same country. She argued & argued & they gave up in the end. From what I could gather she had seen the name in an Atlas sort of close together,



Bugger me dead, she was a Teacher, FFS. Have noticed time & time again where the UK seems to have dropped Education Standards.


The USA seems to have followed suit as well.


Everybody knows Spain is in South America.

You can include Australia with the UK & USA , the only thing that seems to know anything now in Oz is Google & the GPS .

Ian left Cowan a few days before I arrived. His house is about 50 metres away from my humpy.

Your arrangements to pick up could be easier

10+ years ago I was paid a little to attend a very well funded government inquiry into Electronic prescriptions. My doctors got to start using them last year a decade later.

I know for a fact a few mobile phones have gone BING with a SMS or Email eScript in Queensland, NSW and South Oz all from my computer systems here in Vic. My$1 per stamp bill is 95% lower than March 2020.

On the Masks. We do most wear them of the time. A few UVc Air sterilizers possibly make inside my building safer than most places.

Yes, unfortunately probably true enough. Some Australian Teachers I have observed over latter years appeared to know Fanny Adams of a general nature. I think they specialise too much these days.

When I need to know something, I Google. It is a bit hard to ask my Teachers these days as they probably are all dead.

By 'eck your dog types well.

If I need a script, I phone the Rooms & they e-mail the pharmacist with it, she delivers for a very small fee within a certain radius of the pharmacy. Simples.

Pretty sure that is ILLEGALedit- my bad- they can charge for delivery but do get paid or funded for delivery in some cases. I mistook it for a second they charged for processing the eScript sorry. Banging my hand into my head
