Imagine if they did proper testing?

The deaths are pretty insensitive to proper testing and a much better indicator of what's actually going on.

Their deaths being nearly 50 times higher than ours is telling alright. NI only testing people who have been admitted to hospital is what is keeping their numbers ridiculously low too.

Some amount of retards still out and about down this way. Most kids out playing all day. There's a confirmed case in the village and it doesn't seem to have copped anyone on.

Same in city here. Gangs of kids still hanging about. Parents prob can't keep some of them in if they wanted. Guards will need to step in in that respect sooner rather than later.

For bonus points, what was the name of the female accomplice (rarely seen) in The A Team?

[Opr]

He ended up just short of down a million from this point. He then took a break of a couple of weeks. I forget the number but he was paying either 8k or 4k in fines for everyday the break continued. He said he was seriosuly considering quiting and paying the buyout. In the end he decided to play on. Won 9/11 sessions since the break and is on course now for an epic comeback.

I liked Jodie in the Fall Guy better. I didnt like the hair on the one in the A-Team or the cordial relationship she had with Murdock and Face. Murdock was a normal person around her. Cant think of her name.

Bullshit. At the time it was 'but I know ladies plenty'. Maybe on repeats they changes it to a daytime audience to Farrah.

There's another line 'never spent much time in school, but I thought ladies plenty' - maybe that's what you remember.

Always deserves a listen anyway.
