According to UK rules this dinner is currently allowed, if in "Tier 2" that is. It is fewer than 6 people and they are out in the open air.

We have now learnt terms like "wet pubs", "Christmas bubbles" and "social distancing". Must have been much easier back then. All you had to do was listen out for a Wopwopwopwop and just tuck in. What was the worst that could happen after all?

Of course they are, all of them, whether active Local Force, intelligence gathering or simply supply. I do often wonder how much choice these rural folk actually had. Better Red than Dead they might have thought. But then, either way, it may well have ended the same.

Sodium Palmitate with egg-fried rice? Little hot for my taste!

deadhead – For many it may have been a matter of survival, but yes in the end they may have been dead either way.

That dinner was taking place in 1967, long before the pandemic!
