Looking good mate, hope all well with you.

VAT shouldn’t need to be paid again if it is an ex UK car.

As above, looking for someone resize an image for me please.

It was and a refreshing change to the fear factory nonsense we are getting bombarded with via the usual sources. It’s nice to see the info on natural vs vaccine immunity coming through too. Hopefully this will be a better year than last year and people can get back to a normal life sans Covid. Positive news and a great example.

Nice to see you enter a conversation with an open mind and being respectful towards others. If you can’t control your disdain maybe this isn’t the thread for you.

A news channel that can’t do contentious news These guys were around in the 70’s and 80’s WTF happened. Did the world go soft? Miners strikes, a Yorkshire Police force that was insanely brutal, IRA bombings were just the tip. Re the dressing up of dogs question. I would say it all depends of how the dog identifies. Owners really shouldn’t presume

100% I didn’t know they had a habit of this type of behaviour. Pretty childish deleting a poll just because you don’t like the outcome.

Not sure it’s about a stake in any game and not sure what game you think they might be playing. But the question still remains unanswered. Why delete it? The only thing I can think of is that they didn't like the result so thew their toys out of the pram and hoped on one would notice. Can you think of any other logical reason for doing something like that?

Okay, i’ll have a look tonight. I have used these guys for past projects when I needed cast iron welding done - https://www.castironwelding.co.uk they might be able to help you with that piece even though it is ali.

Ooft w@nkers! I’m fairly certain I still have my old valve so you are more than welcome to that if I have it. I may have a new filter too, just not sure where. There was nothing wrong with it, I just swapped it out as it had been redesigned at some point. I can’t help you with the cast piece unfortunately but a decent foundry up north might be able to fix it if you have no joy in sourcing a replacement.

I think I still have my old one in a box in the loft if you want it? Did you know they changed the design?

Does this help -

You mean the VVT-I Oil Control Valve (15330-46010)

That is what I was asking you, I know your stance but wondered what you thought about them running the poll then deleting it after the results were in. It’s very strange for sure, akin to throwing your toys out of the pram?

Bit of info for those who want a more holistic approach to protecting yourself. Long videos but worth your time.

That’s the thing with a virus (flu, influenza, pneumonia, covid), it will always attack the vulnerable and there will always be parts of society who are more vulnerable than others. The elderly & immunocompromised are two. The latter being an umbrella term for cancer patients undergoing “treatment” (if you can call it that) and those with end of life care. People who have autoimmune diseases like arthritis and people with colon disease. Then you have heavy smokers, obesity and those with heart or lung problems. I would say those are the most at immediate risk. You also have to look at genetics. Then you have the fit healthy people, who for all intents and purposes should be fine but are pushing up daisies in next no time. That is unfortunate. Google cytotoxic storm. It's horrific. In a nutshell it’s our own bodies killing us. Now have a read of this paper - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7649937/ and let me know your thoughts. Yes, vaccines have their place. 100%. Smallpox death rate is around 30% (I think) and Polio (poliomyelitis) mainly affects children under 5 years of age with 1 in 200 infections leading to irreversible paralysis and 5% to 10% of those dying when their breathing muscles become immobilised and a death rate in adults of between 15%-30%. We are fortunate not to have TB to worry about either. I wouldn’t travel abroad without the correct jabs. I was bitten by a bat so I had my rabies jab as I didn’t want to risk catching rabies. I didn’t have the jab before I left as I ran out of time (there are only so many you can have in a short space of time) and it wasn’t “essential” as it still works after a potential infection. Instead of three jabs you have six, all in your stomach! The liquid is a purplish colour if my memory serves me correct. Vaccine passports. Without the jab you can’t travel. Purely by enacting such a stance you penalise/punish the parts of society who don't wish to be vaccinated. You are taking away their right to free choice. By creating a system where some have more freedom than others. That isn’t democratic. That isn't indicative of a free society. It automatically creates a two-tiered society. A them and us. You only have to look at the Stanford prison experiment to see how that will turn out. Lastly, do you really think the world pulled together? I can’t think of a time where people have behaved towards each other in such a surprising/disappointing/unbelievable/disgusting/cruel way throughout that whole period with an awful lot of gesticulating too. I don’t think the world has been as divided as it is today.

Just a quick one for tonight - https://www.rt.com/uk/542507-mandatory-vaccine-poll-deleted/ @Style@The Raven Will reply in due course, bit of a mental one tonight. All good though, it’s been a good chat so far. No presumptions, re the questions. Just wondered if you guys saw the same thing and how you squared the circle in your head.

A bit of good news? Senate poised to pass resolution to nullify Biden vaccine mandate - https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/584825-senate-poised-to-pass-resolution-to-nullify-biden-vaccine-mandate

Anyway of verifying this?

Right, I'll apologise. I didn’t see that. It was supposed to read doesn’t work to stop transmission. I didn’t proof read before posting which is why I was so vociferous in my reply. Sorry. No excuses. If you have ever had a real dose of the flu you will know it’s not to be sniffed at. No pun intended. I coped it for the first time in my life about 6 years ago and only once in my life thankfully. I'm a relatively fit healthy guy apart from my knackered back, knees and hands. I don’t drink or smoke tobacco. I’m lean and work out every day, either weights, swim in the sea or cardio. I eat well (organic & no red meat) take a couple of vits, minerals and drink a minimum of a litre of water a day. I was off my feet for about a month and two weeks of that I barely moved. Recovery took months and a lost a stupid amount of weight. I was laid on the sofa in front of an open fire. Wrapped in a double duvet with hot water bottles as I couldn’t get warm. Sweat pouring off me. Couldn't eat, could barely drink. Was sleeping most of the day away. The pain I can only describe as what I would imagine it feels like to be eaten alive by rats with them gnawing at your bones. I still haven’t been vaccinated. Natural immunity is the key to life. You start trying to control nature and it bites back. Look at what sterilising hospitals did for us. You only need look to nature to see how it controls the population when certain species become too great in numbers. The history is there for all to read. These people pushing the vaccinate everyone theory are poking the proverbial hornets nest. If people want the vaccine fine but everyone should be informed about the potential effects rather than leaving that job to whistle blowers as it doesn’t do anyone any favours and heavily undermines trust. Informed consent and all that. Talking of informed consent, why stop people being allowed to take legal action against the companies producing these jabs? If you do that, you can’t force a vaccination. That is akin to having your cake and eating it but with todays society that is hardly a surprise. With everything I listed in my longwinded post. The stuff that isn’t getting reported, I have a question for you. Do you think it is acceptable for a government to become totalitarian when deaths are embellished, the science being reported is one sided, there is loss of freedom, you vaccinate healthy people, segregate society and suppress free knowledge about the effects of the jab? Now take into account the loss of business that people have worked so hard to build up and how interfering with natural human behaviour is knackering society. There is so much going on around the world right now. Everywhere you look there is discontent. People fighting, one part of society trying to suppress another, double standards, segregation. You have the potential China / Taiwan, Russia / Ukraine, North Korea / Japan as the main contenders. Then you look east at drone attacks and what looks like attempted missile strikes at nuclear reactors. Where do you even begin to start. To me the world looks like it’s falling apart. Even the environmentalist green lot have ramped up the chaos and become real tw@ts. Remember them, they were the flower power hippies.

I don't have any guesses. I only know what I read and see across many different platforms and have no idea why people are acting this way. Maybe you can explain it? I think it’s pretty obvious if you read what I have written above to see how well the jab works and I made no such claim that it did not work. Go back and re-read what I wrote please and stop with the straw man. It gets really boring fast. I am repeating verbatim how a Covid death is recorded. This is nothing new and is common knowledge. A death within 28 days of a positive test is a Covid death. How wide do you want to set those goalposts? You’re hinting that I said Covid doesn't exist again. For clarity I have never said or inferred anything of the sort. Numbers would depend on a lot of external factors, one being how virile this strain is. By all accounts, this new variant is more transmissible but appears less deadly at the moment. The flu has always worked this way. It's the nature of the beast and happened every year before 2019 but were were’t being bombarded with influenza figures then. Maybe you could do me a favour as I have answered everything you have put to me. Do me the common courtesy and try answering some of my questions. I would be more inclined to chat if this was a two way street rather that a constant barrage in my direction. Last but not least, I did not say the vaccine does nothing. I can only guess that is your interpretation of what I have written. If it is, you are incorrect to make that assumption. In the nicest possible way please stop putting words in my mouth and please stop twisting my words. If you don't understand what I have posted, ask. ATB

It was the inference of Conspiracy Theorist, this is where I took issue and you know it was. Give up the strawman and stop being hyperbolic. As I said, name calling no matter how subtle adds nothing to the conversation. Back on topic. Take the US. The most vaccinated state is Vermont. Which state has the highest Covid numbers? Vermont. I would assume that is where vaccine hesitancy starts. What is the most vaccinated country in the world? Israel. After three rounds of jabs they have some of the highest Covid transmission rates and Covid numbers. Singapore is one of the most vaccinated countries in the world. 84% vaccinated. Yet it has some of the highest covid rates. Same for Gibraltar and many other places. They changed the definition of what a vaccine is. This is a treatment at best and a very questionable one at that. Why is it that the most vaccinated countries have the the highest virus transmission rates? Why is it that third world countries and provinces like Uttar Pradesh in India, a province that has over 200 million residents that widely prescribed Ivermectin has five to ten covid cases per day? Why is it that poor African nations have been able to flatten the curve and turn the corner on the virus and yet industrialised wealthy nations like Israel and America haven’t? It’s because they take antimalarials with their breakfast because Malaria is a big issue and Hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin and vitamin D are proven to show they can help. So why peddle the jab? The whole point of science is consideration, the scientific method, testing the thesis and the hypothesis. Since when was science a democracy? Before the hysteria that is Covid (by any other name Influenza) scientists used to watch the other side of the equator to try and predict what was going to pop up this side and vice versa. Sometimes it worked, more often than not it didn’t. People can be wrong about things. As an example it was widely believed that the earth was the center of the universe until the heliocentric theory by Galileo. Re the steroid thing. If you inject Testosterone into a healthy body, that body stops producing it. Same thing happens with a flu jab. You lose natural immunity and replace it with something engineered in lab. On to other stuff, god (<- insert preferred deity here) this is getting long! Part 2 None of this makes sense, none of it. It is mass hysteria about influenza. Why push/force the vaccine when it is obvious to all it doesn’t stop transmission, doesn’t work and the risks for most people outweigh any benefit? Why is the news continually running with the worst narrative? Particularly the BBC with Channel 4 a close second and ITV nipping at its heels. Why is the news not fairly and equally reported? Everything mentioned above is readily available information. Why are the death figures being embellished? Any death within 28 days of a positive death. Thats not right by anyones standards. Why is loss of freedom necessary? Why vaccinate healthy people? Why segregate society? Why is no one questioning this? Case in point. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/59559623 VS https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/south-african-doctor-raised-alarm-omicron-variant-says-symptoms/
