    Yes it is a URAL the other models came from different factories across the old soviet union, originally in the UK in the 70's 80's they where called Cossack's and then Nevel's, they are an acquired taste a mate of mine his dad had a Cossack in the 80's he used to run it on 50/50 petrol/paraffin, the hand book told you how to cross a trench it also came with a very comprehensive tool kit which was of cause required on a regular basis.

    What are very clever song. And sad but true. Sounds like the COVID response "plan" similar to that of the US except it's not just old folks who are sacrificed. There are definitely several additional demographic groups that our government, particularly the federal government, doesn't seem very concerned about. :(

    One rule for them and another for the rest of us. Or rather, no rules for them. And the rest of the slimeballs are circling the wagons to defend him. Despicable.

    I have never subscribed to the Cummings myth. It is glaringly obvious he ought to go.....just as the confected outrage has more to do with politics than infection control and the rule of law.

    Yes, he’s a hypocrite but for me his entire contrived image, choice of work clothes etc., for someone at the heart of government? It is an insult to we the taxpayers. BoJo doesn’t seem to realise he’s gone from the winner’s enclosure to last chance saloon in a matter of weeks. Cummings is my idea of jetsam....... more liability than asset.

    I agree with nearly everything you say, except for the word 'confected'. Yes, the outrage is partly political. but it is genuine enough. I think all of us hate hypocrisy, but it's the sheer arrogance of those who think that their rules only apply to the plebs that gets me.

    I know one thing about Cummings, as well as being a big hypocrite, he’s a scruffy sod. He dresses as though he’s going for a walk on the moors

    Sky news did an interview with a paediatrician from Great Ormand Street, she was explaining that the children's hospital was half empty, children are still getting sick but they aren't getting treated. She feared the future as sick children will be presented too late to be treated. One of the saddest bit's of news I've seen during this pandemic and the first to actually talk about the consequences of lockdown rather than the virus.

    Who knows how this one will play out. I'm sure some schools will open in early June and others will not. Again I think we will see politics play a key role in this as it plays out :grinning:
