The virus kills people over 60. The joke's on the rest of you. A tactical masterclass from yours truly...

Joint-third - happy enough with that. Must admit I did have to google the computer virus question, if it was Peehs I'd have definitely gotten a wrong answer. Only one I'm a bit annoyed with myself about was the cancelled event - parade was such a gimme answer but it didn't pop into my head at all. Maybe because I avoid it every year anyway!

Congrats bubblypop on your victory and Reberetta on your immunity-boosting spoon! And thanks Necro for keeping us entertained in these weird and confusing times.
