I was being sarcastic, I know he wouldn't go into a Pizza Parlor and use a code word for pedophilia trying to get an underage girl.
Lol, sorry about that.
I knew you didn’t mean the above , but as soon as I read the reference ‘ to ordering a pizza ‘ I just connected with what many on here state as a code word. I wondered whether the press were using it to ‘ say something ‘ ……………

No, it's a reference to his alibi. He wasn't there (wherever "there" was) because he was ordering a pizza in Woking at the time.

We can recall that OJ Simpson could be innocent in a criminal court but guilty in a civil one.

Irrespective of facts, it's money and publicity that the media thrives on.

It's possible, I read yesterday that he is under the protection of the Queen on Yahoo News, I don't know how reliable that news source is though.

I also read that Ghislaine Maxwell is going to be naming some big names who were involved in the sexual escapades with underage girls to lessen her sentence, let's see how long she makes it.

I honestly thought she was going to keep her mouth shut and do her time, so she wouldn't end up in the same predicament as her buddy Epstein did.

I bet you there are some pretty nervous people right now. But I'm thinking they'll probably poison her or something and say she died of circumstances due to overwhelming stress or something.

We'll just have to wait and see.

Hi Cristo,
I am not well, but not really sick either. It’s kind of weird. It’s like a cold but doesn’t progress in the same way. Also there is a fatigue with this that is just different. I had to test this morning and I am still positive, my test result today is much clearer than the one I had on Monday ( I think that it is because it’s more in the nose than the throat now ) Yes, high levels of cases but no lockdowns and little restrictions at the moment, unless you go somewhere like night clubs and shows. There are pushes still for the booster, I got an email from work stating that ‘ boosters are mandatory so book yours soon ‘ ..didn’t apply to me but, once again they are pushing the false statement that the boosters are mandatory and they are not.
Things may change over here, but not much yet, will let you know x

Not sure about the protection thing, a judge ruled against him with something yesterday. It will be interesting to see what happens on Tuesday.
I read that she was not going to speak out, but who knows maybe they are endeavouring to get a deal through before she is sentenced. Shorter sentence if she gives information. I am surprised she hasn’t mysteriously died already !!

So am I, I think the reason she's still alive is because she's kept her mouth shut, but if she opens it, her luck might run out and she might mysteriously come down with some rare disease or something, it won't be suicide because her buddy Epstein already died under those circumstances so I'm sure she'll be watched more closely, if she dies it'll be due to "natural causes."

Good to hear

A mate and i were recently speculating on what may happen in 2022. I suggested that this won't end without blood and/or heads rolling...
But he suggested the following and the more i contemplate it the more possible i think it is

He said maybe they are seeing that its not working, that there is too much push back from the public, that omicron is too mild to fuss over, that more people are learning the truth.
And so maybe they will quietly withdraw from all the silliness, the masks, the lockdowns, the testing, the quarantines, the msm fear porn and all the rest, in an effort to avoid any liability

Who knows... Only the Lord...
I think all this is meant to pass and we have to stay close to God in order to have the fortitude to get through it all...
Its a psychological and spiritual war i believe

You may ask them, because my husband was told you can test positive for up to 90 days after you have had covid. The doctor said it is why they go by your symptoms rather then the test after you test positive to return to work.

Hi Mayflower,
We are not allowed to take the PCR tests for 90 days, but the lateral flow ones determine whether you can still pass it on….so it’s only the quick tests that I am doing at the moment. Once I get two negatives in a row I can return to work. At least that is how they are now doing it over here. Some people are testing positive on a lateral flow test up to nine days after a positive pcr test, this is only day 6 for me. I think this is since they changed the time frame for returning to work. It was 10days , they altered it to 7days a little while ago…….

Lateral flow tests... Is that the same as a rapid antigen test?
I did a self rapid antigen test... I don't mind them. You only have to insert it an inch up your nose...

Yes, I think they have different names, but we call them LFT ( lateral flow test ) or quick tests.

This has always puzzled me....why the need for such an invasive and often painful swab test when the virus is supposed to be able to be spread just by talking...?
It makes no sense. A simple mouth swab should be enough. The nasal test goes horribly close to the brain. I have only had one and I do not intend to have another unless I am the one guiding the swab.

I have them every week at work, for well over a year now. I have never found them painful. We do them ourselves as it is easier.

@Pearl
Sorry I didn’t mean to turn this into another discussion about the vaccine. My reaction this morning was more to do with Jesus being brought into persuading people ‘ to do the right thing ‘ ..I had not see his speech, so the link took me by surprise. I was also upset by the lockdown at work, so I reacted, rather than responded. Just lately I have lost a lot of respect for Boris, not because of what’s happened but because he hasn’t got the courage to admit he messed up. Also I am not sure I agree that the Archbishop should be weighing in either…, but obviously others may feel differently.
Anyway many apologises for instantly directing your OP in a certain direction xx
Rita
It's okay @Rita but I do think the more people that can be persuaded to be vaccinated the better. As I told you last year my 1st husband and his brother both died of it and it has been in my family again over Christmas with my grandaughter missing out on her baby's Christmas because she was isolating after testing positive and then one of my daughter's and her family tested positive.

Even though I had misgivings I believed it was right for me to have the vaccine last January and to follow up with a booster in November.

I know that everybody doesn't feel the same but I agree with the Archbishop that it is a way to care about our neighbours. I really don't understand people's reluctance.

Thanks Pearl, I just have mixed views about preaching at people about it and all the pushing. I just didn’t like Boris using that stance. I still don’t , the information should be there and then allow people to make an informed choice without any guilt trips either way. I have covid at the moment and we have a major outbreak at the care home, everyone is vaccinated ……people lost their jobs because they were considered a risk because of not being vaccinated. I guess I am still annoyed over that aspect.
Hope your family recover quickly xxxxx

Exactly... It feels like rape otherwise... LoL...
Nasal sodomy... Some saliva should be sufficient
