Re: The Rule of Six.

Well the Windsor's and their hangers on like to kill grouse and things (people if they could get away with it which is what the Romanovs did) so wouldn't want that lot going out en mass to kill specially bred live targets causing a furore eh?

Madness isn't it, when a party of toddlers in a park only 7 people actually, can't do that. I think it was one kids birthday.

Agree Paula, It is so wrong. I bet there won't be many marshalls at the grouse shoots.

We should all be aware by now that the rich landed gentry are not subject to the same restrictions and even laws which apply to the rest of us.

It has always been so.

Logically, it should be the rule of Two, even that will not crush the need for herd immunisation.

I agree with all you've said, Paula, especially the last sentence.

There was a young Mum on the news tonight too, who said she can't have just a small family get together for her baby's first birthday, yet you can go and sit in a pub surrounded by total strangers!

You just need a bit of domestos JBR. It's like cleaning a drain. (just kidding to any dentists who may be foaming at the mouth reading this!)
