diable rouge Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Yep, as the article says, a game changer, esp for NHS workers. I guess that'll be the next panic buying item...

It's the high prices at times of high demand that allows companies to sell things cheaper when demand is lower - Amazon, Uber, airlines - all the same. It may not seem fair at times like this but we benefit from it at other times.True and always good to understand supply and demand (price control generally a dirty word). On a separate matter the mark up for hotel rooms at Bilbao for Euro 2020 was phenomenal. I'll get great pleasure in cancelling my overpriced tiny AirBnB room for three. Got to snatch some glimmers of light from this situation. Like all markets where there is under-supply things can change or someone can come in with an innovative product (Japanese toilets or bidets?) and you are left with warehouses full of a valueless commodity.

JohnL Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 A flag for your home office is an essential when you have those friday skype team meeting where they say bring a drink :) (actually I placed my rugby shirt collection behind me and a colleague his Man Utd poster) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/248541-is-the-corona-virus-becoming-a-pandemic/page/14/#findComment-1413177 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnL Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Just saw on Sky News"Corona Virus patients more likely to die may have treatment withdrawn EVEN IF THEY ARE IMPROVING"I always thought a strong indicator was a persons strong motivation to live, as well as age and clinical diagnosis.It's what struck me years ago on Intensive Care and High Dependency wards (major op) - I was trying to get well every moment I was there but some seemed to have given up.

malumbu Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Just been watching the Last Leg. Shocked that David Mitchell has dared criticise the prominence of the union flags in Number 10 press briefings. He dared to compare this to America, and even stated that flags should be flown in the air.Just ignore my post, it is purely self-indulgent, self congratulatory toss. malumbu Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> ED Bird Wrote:> --------------------------------------------------> -----> > malumbu Wrote:> >> --------------------------------------------------> > > -----> > > Rather under the belt, and very political but> am> > I> > > the only one who thinks that having the union> > > flags behind the PM in the televised> > conferences> > > reminds me of another time?> > > > > > This is not as facetious as it may sound. > > Looking> > > back union flags have appeared in the past> but> > > they seem to have more prominence now.> > > > > > > > offensive & pathetic.> > > > I bet you wouldn't be complaining if it was an> EU> > flag.> > I didn't think that it would be worth having an> adult conversation with you about patriotism,> nationalism and the like.

Spartacus Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Maybe, based on David Mitchell's comment above, he's a fan of "fun with flags" 😃 Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/248541-is-the-corona-virus-becoming-a-pandemic/page/14/#findComment-1474452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
