    That's not true, at least with regard to Belgium, who've definitely been counting all care home deaths in their figures (in fact, they're counting care home deaths as COVID-19 deaths, even if they don't actually know the cause).

    Just goes to show the madness / stupidity of the statistics. In the Sky news program there was much talk of lack of testing and yet today on the news they are claiming 40.4% of all covid deaths happened in care homes. Not approximately, about or somewhere near to, but exact figures which no way can they know.

    Spooky Tooth was the name of a rock band. I could never understand why anyone would want to call themselves after a mouler.

    That's cold. I can just about imagine clasping a pint wearing snow mittens but how do you eat a packet of crisps?

    Nuts over crisps, surely!? Or is this opinion going to determine my unpopularity forever.

    Get your wife to feed them to you, so you don't get cold hands.

    Posters disagree with you because you are ****, not because you are unpopular.

    It's fish and chips with/without gravy that determines unpopularity on here :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Anyway it's crisps every time for me, preferably Walkers, I think I could eat 100 bags one after the other.
