  1. Prefer the older grill,yea that image rep doesnt do them any good,specially in aberdeen, for a good few years more popular than fords !,still had a few bms and they are solid to drive,but only cos i gave in to my ex she used to like them to much do the 3 year trade in,wouldnt be seen dead in anything else hi-so git,,we stayed on a slight hill and they were shite in the snow,ahh was great when we split up,no longer i had to split the costs with her obsession with bmws every 3 years and park at bottom of hill in snow...i went out and bought a subaru sti ! lol tore that snow roads up it did,no problem getting up the hill,was great for a few years,then sold it as stayed thailand to much. The ex still drives and changes her bmw every 3 years,i hope she hates the new grills.

  11. I found THIS article from Jan 21st. It's got to be one of the worst predictions of all time. But it's also important to see WHY it was so epically terrible. Basically, he argued that India already had a lot of herd immunity because so many people had already been infected, and he ignored the variants. IF there weren't so many variants in India, THEN this actually might have been an okay argument. But there are variants, and this is the result. Even though he was absolutely right that a huge chunk of India already had COVID, that has made no difference at all to the variants. And there's more to it-- This author was *not* the only one who made this prediction. There's a very long list of others who made the exact same mistake. What can we get out of this? The variants are making the pandemic into a whole new ball game, and the media has often been ridiculously behind the curve in understanding this. https://theprint.in/.../why-india-will-not-see-a.../587966/

Health officials will conduct coronavirus tests at the market on Sunday, targeting some 300 people who work there. All shops and stalls there will be closed for the day, said the provincial administration organisation, which supervises the site. Several trucks were deployed on Saturday to spray disinfectant at the shrimp market, which covers more than 10 rai in tambon Hantra of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya district, said Chatchai Kittichai, leader of the Ayutthaya volunteer team. Local authorities and operators of more than 100 shops sought help from the team to clean up the market and spray disinfectant, he said.... (Continued at link)
