I'm only doing it to annoy you...

I nearly went into self-isolation with my incorrect spelling of "capitalisation".

In the 1970s with the strikes some kids started in September and others in the same academic year in April for reception class /year 1. Seemed like a big disadvantage for those younger in the year.

Data from several decades has shown time and time again that summer-born children perform between 10-20% "worse" than their autumnal peers in end of year exams.

Fair play to the Government with their support to the self employed.

Italy 6100 new cases, 662 deaths. They peaked. Now we have to wait for it to start dropping.

Used to be the same for footy too, the best players more likely born in September - December. A glance at the squad with DoBs in any 80s/90s city programme backed this up.

Italy 4500 new cases, 662 deaths. They peaked. Now we have to wait for it to start dropping.

Cases up by a thousand today but deaths slightly down. Let's hope they have passed the peak and it will soon start to fall.

Italy and the USA will probably pass China's figures by tomorrow.

tragic news as always. But looking like they won’t reach 800+ in a day now.
