It’s a good job that I had all my vaccinations then isn’t it.
At least they tested them properly, unlike the ones they use now.
700 deaths each…That’s small potatoes compared to covid which I believe is/was a man made strain made in a lab somewhere.
Someone has made a great deal of money from peoples suffering, and still are.
One of the reasons why I don’t like globalism and the major transmission of people around the world.
Perhaps you should change your name here to OldGreyCanute. Place your favourite chair outside Heathrow and see if that works. The world is now, has been for some time, about international & cross border stuff. Trade, movement of people, holidays, knowledge. It makes nations richer, it makes people more informed, it reduces conflict. You can, if you want, stay home and knit your own slippers but that will change nothing.
I think we are in danger of chatting at cross purposes. You seem to be confirming that you support all vaccines except the recent Covid ones. I’m worrying that advice to a youngster about being cautious before deciding to receive a vaccine can lead to people opting out (or opting their children out) of taking all vaccines.
Is that a fair summary?
Marry the one you love.
Love is worth more than money or status.
I cannot disagree with that.
On reflection though, me and the missus argued less when we got a bit more money coming in. So is there an addendum to this advice - but try to make sure you are not broke?
I/we have never been broke, we’ve always made sure we’ve got something for a rainy day. Never borrowed a penny, apart from the mortgage. We both know how to live well, and not so well: how to knock up a cheap meal, that sort of thing.

Actually Canute didn’t want to hold the tide back, he wanted to show people that he wasn’t a God and could not hold the tide back.
Too much knowledge in the hands of yer average person is not a good thing, and as for reducing conflict, it hasn’t worked has it. There is more hatred in the world now than I can ever remember. People just think they know everything.
That is correct Lincs.
All I’m saying is people should do their own research instead of trusting the establishment, they are not your friend, and consider us as expendable, why else would they send millions of young men to their deaths in two world wars.and experiment on us with cobbled together dubious vaccines.
They wanted to reduce the pension outlay so wanted to polish off all the old people. And it seems they succeeded.
You are not paranoid, it’s just that they are out to get you.

Looking back over the decades, it’s amazing how many things we used to worry about that turned out not to matter at all!
you could go back in time and give your 20-year-old self just one piece of advice—whether about work, life, relationships, or saving money—what would it be?
think my own advice would be: “Stop caring so much about what other people think and enjoy the moment🤗!” What’s yours?

So true. It’s easy to project our own feelings or intentions onto others, but taking the time to see people for who they really are saves a lot of heartbreak in the long run

Do not allow other people to bully you into doing something you do not want to do. It is okay to say no.

Oh, I definately agree with all of your responses.
For myself, I would say to have more confidence to speak up for yourself. You’re not ugly or a loser you just need better friend that don’t knock you down.

I’d tell my younger self to buy less unnecessary stuff, save a little more, and realize that half the things we worry about end up never happening anyway! Connecting with good friends is always time well spent. Have a lovely day!
