Lockdown easing in England

[jillruss]

Thanks for the heads up.

I had an email the other day purporting to be from TV Licensing offering me free tv licence for a year. I still don't know if it was for real but I very much doubt it - and just deleted it straight away.

These people need to be caught and locked up - or I could think of something far, far worse!

Same here Mike - I read 'sewers' in the sanitary sense; twas only when I got as far as fashion week that the penny dropped...   

So did I - I thought. "That's a long way!"

A preliminary medical/scientific report apparently shows that people that have blood group A are 45% more susceptible to Covid-19 while those with blood group O are 35% less susceptible.

That sad fact is interesting, wonder if people of Asian races who have died were of group A,we have lost so many Doctors  and Nurses of Asian origin.
I am O positive.
Thanks.
Viktoria.
