    There is no end to the solecisms and grammatical mistakes made by reporters and presenters who should know better.

    Ties and sleeves are two of the biggest sources of infection - apparently - which is why - apparently - doctors do this when on their rounds.  Lab coats ditto.

    Why anyone else should need to do it is beyond me.

    I think a surgical team wear just a t-shirt or similar under their sterile gowns.

  • Have I misunderstood you Steve but do you mean that doctors use colleagues sleeves or ties to relieve an itchy nose thus transmitting infectionsimage sounds a little bad practice to me they definitely should discontinue such image 

    Gardeners only use their own sleeves and would be annoyed that you suggest they do differentlyimageimage

  • I can answer one of those, yes you can get snowstorms with thunder and lightning!

    If your nose runs, and your feet smell, perhaps you're upside down?

  • thunder during a snow storm is called thundersnow, its actually statically charged so if you rub the snow into you hair and you're wearing wellies your hair slightly stands on end!

    It also means that it contains an awful lot of snow. last time we had thundersnow here on Teesside was 2010 and we had nearly 14 inches overnight! needless to say I did not go to work the next day and neither did the majority of people on Teesside!

    Wow! An inch of snow will do that in London.

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    I like the sound of thundersnow!  I have just retired after over 40 years nursing, havent seen a dr in a white coat or tie for Donkeys years!
