Essential- Yeah I'm guessing we'll see very few Flu cases this winter for some strange reason, just got a hunch.

[essentialinvestor] 02/11/2020 22:48

Flu season is usually defined as 26 weeks starting mid October in the UK.
You can get flu anytime, just more likely within those few months.

A lot of blokes think they have flu when it's a cold.

Gozzie- But we've had Flu vaccines every year for yonks so if as you said the other day that Flu has dropped because of social distancing/masks then this Winter Flu should be as prevalent as any other year if covid is to continue it's climb. Otherwise your thesis wouldn't make any sense would it?

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 22:42

We haven't got their yet .Hopefully the distancing masks etc will help .When is flu season?Bupa UK explain that people in the UK usually get seasonal flu between December and March.However, they add that outbreaks can happen as early as October and as late as May.

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 22:39

Yes get both and they have said you are in serious trouble.

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 22:36

It also spreads far easier than the flu .

[essentialinvestor] 02/11/2020 22:36

Just a reminder that anyone over 50 is eligible for a free vaccine this year.
You can pay privately for £8-£9.

Gozzie- If you think Flu cases have gone down 95% due to social distancing and masks then why is covid supposed to be on the rise?

It's a £1 a pint more than they'd get if they waited til Thursday.

[konradpuss] 02/11/2020 21:27

Well for all you gloomsters and doomsters it is down about 1% on the day.

Just back from my local 'Spoons'. Very busy as they are selling down their cellar beer stock cheap. No great for the shareholders mind.

The wetherspoons food comment was tongue in cheek .I eat it a lot its not done me any harm .Some say it has lol .

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 18:56

They should wear badges these that don't want lockdown. Then when the docs have to choose who to save they know who to treat .

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 18:31

You are in cuckooland if you think its not serious. Not a prayer we will open up this year .

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 18:29

There's a guy in hospital liverpool on BBC news saying you need to get your head straight johnwise .The guy on the videos taking the Mickey saying its flu .

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 18:11

I meant John wise and his friend on the video .I told the stepdaughter she can't see her boyfriend and i had an answer ending in off lol .

Ignoble - looked at Youngs - any ideas why they have lobbed £195m into the intangibles ?, plus cash flow is down only a fraction over £1m in reserves.

TIA

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 18:07

I didnt need him to tell me that lol

[rescuer] 02/11/2020 18:06

Ignoble - bang on - cutting loses and taking profits is as hard as finding the entry level, whichever way you trade.

guess the rest of the week will be volatile -

I know my niece is a manager at primark in Manchester. I met a guy st Anne's station 2 years ago from boohoo he lived in Kensington. He told me all about boohoo so I invested .I got lucky and got out before it hit the fan lol .

[essentialinvestor] 02/11/2020 17:49

I would invest in ABF everyday over BOO, but they are very different business,
although both in fashion. BOO online, Primark physical retail, with the legacy
food/ingredients/sugar business.

The rating is also very different, BOO is far more highly rated.

[gozzie2] 02/11/2020 17:34

I'm hoping boohoo will take advantage .Dodgy company seemingly run by dodgy people .I made money from them before I didnt take my own advice I took the profit and ran lol .The management are on huge bonuses for success but they may run out of immigrant labour .
