You can always build a wall to keep out the scum uncle. If you do go to your boutique supermarket make sure you wear mask and gloves and carry your hand gel. All items that I’m sure you use daily in The Manor”

.My little tip on hand lotion. Fill up a small bottle with Four Pillars Gin/Navy Strength (60 per cent alcohol) with a touch of lemon essence. This is cheaper and more effective than any other lotion. Spray on hands and any other body parts to maintain your hygiene standards. Particularly important to stop human transmission but also to prevent transmission from any surface including toys.  And very good as a mouth wash.

To arrest the purported vertical exponential leap in those afflicted neither gloves or masks are currently recommended by health 'experts'  Apparently the bug is carried by gloves and masks should be reserved for use by medical professionals.

Yes with panic buying and shortages of popular consumer items, thrifty alternatives are always welcome. Although the advice recently offered, (in order to forestall the contagion) by an Iranian cleric. To apply oil of pansy flowers (in polite society) to an unmentionable part of the anatomy, nightly, does not give one exactly a 'ring' of confidence. Happily bananas still appear to be abundantly available.

Those sections quoted of course originate with Hemingway.

I am not sure what the fuss is about.

Ever since my pilgrimage trips to India and watching the Indians undertake their ablutions by the Yamuna and Ganga, I have followed suit.

If you look at the anatomy of the body and the geometry of the squat position, it is a piece of cake. As clean and clinical as a surgeons knife! 

Very hygienic and satisfactory on all counts. 

As long as your Princess is not watching.!

Daisy as long as you have the squat technique perfect (where you position both feet is critical) and have a hose, jug of water or creek water you dint need to worry about your hand or finger nails. 

All the same, in my travels across the plains of India I never shook hands or took food from a one armed Indian.

I think I will just make up some hip flasks of this concoction, potentially a great dual use here. My synopsis is that I can have a swig and then spray my hands. If I am perpetually [censored] I don’t believe the virus can get a look in. Constructive comments are welcome.

Earl, when you start marketing this world-wide you can reduce the cost of production by diluting the solution to 50/50. This will reduce the cost but there will still be enough alcohol to kill the germs as long as you are using 60 per cent proof. One of the benefits is that you can market different flavours. Lemon, orange, passion fruit or go for the herbal top ups such as sage, mint etc.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
