A local doctor here once told me that years ago he got an urgent call from a patient who was in a panic because his
little lad had just swallowed a condom. When the ambulance turned up, with its blue light blazing, the father opened
the door saying, "Panic over...everything's fine....My wife's just found another one ! "

I'll have to remember that one
 
From a previous life, I can remember a guy whose favourite party trick was to pull one over his head to just under his nose, then inhale through his mouth & exhale through his nose to inflate it to a height of about 2 feet. Very impressive!

Just doing some modelling at the moment, & listening to an episode of Round The Horne on BBC Sounds. I can remember listening to this show on a Sunday afternoon when I was a nipper in the 1960s, completely ignorant of what all the double meanings in it were all about.......it’s even funnier now I do understand them all. Kenneth Williams was one of the funniest comedians who ever lived.
Maybe we did meet in Belfast after all!!!
 
On a slightly lighter note, on returning to the site homepage I noticed a large banner ad from a major online retailer offering condoms at discounted prices...…..
They never miss a trick - the analysts are fully aware that one of the major long-term effects of everyone being confined at home/self-isolating will be a massive spike in the birthrate!

The situation in Germany is already very serious - soon it will be catastrophic!
The hairdressers had to close now too.

We will still be happy that we are locked up in our apartments and houses, for after three or four months without a hairdresser we will all look something like this:




 
And just I'm reading: BoJo got it now ...
Apart from the fact that I totally miss the relation between the posted picture and Boris Johnson ( a very wise politician who managed to get Brittain liberated again ) I can't help getting the feeling that you seem to take some sort of "joy" in the fact that Mr.Johson got infected by this terrible virus. Please Martin, convince me I got it all wrong because In this case I would hate to be right if only for your sake....

In a world gone mad...a world of global lock downs, individual mass isolation, escalating death tolls - there
is often something so banal that happens which somehow appears even more surreal. Such a thing happened
to us this morning.

We have received a reminder from the travel company requiring payment for this year's holiday - we planned
to return to Italy in June for ten days in Tuscany followed by the same again in Sorrento. My intial reaction
was, I'm ashamed to say, to succumb to a bit of a rant and wonder just what planet they were on. However,
wiser councils prevailed and I decided to give it a while before I spoke with them. Does anyone have any
suggestions as to how I might tell them the bad news ?
