Wuhan coronavirus spreading... not supprisied


 Well the UK NHS is worried about the spread of the coronavirus, and it should be. But it's being made MUCH worse by the total lack of care and infection contral of the NHS itself.
 This week I spent the best part of two days in various hospitals and surgeries. What have I learned?
 Well the hospital does ask patients of they have been to Italy on arrivial, although neither I my son or brother were asked any questions. Not to mention the virus is in other countires as well as Italy.
 Then theres casualty. 6 to 8 hours in a small crammed waiting room with half the people in there coughing over the other half. No attempt to seperate them, no attempt to give them masks, not even advising them to cover the mouths when coughing.
 Next up we have the staff (some coughing) they went around the bloody waiting room checking blood pressure and patients sats (oxygen levels) they did this by going from patient to patient without washing hands or cleaning the equipmen between them. Great way to spread infection.
 Nearly as bad was seeing a paramedic use the toilet and not bother washing his hands after, FFS thats basic stuff.  How the hell do they expect to stop the spread of a virus if they cant even bloody wash their hands in a sodding hospital!
 Seriously the NHS need to learn basic infection control, and actually practice it.
 It would be hard to think of a better way to spread a virus then have hospitals behave like this. makes you wonder what their agenda is.

Primrose


 What with the weather, family issues and time I've not had much shooting recently, spotted this primrose in the garden. Couldn't be arsed to dig out the macro kit and my proper cameras, so used my old camera and the walking around long range zoom (18-250mm) only took a few pics as this didnt really grab me.
 Just cropped and resized in photoshop.


Computer AI (artificial intelligence)


 I keep hearing about computer AI... artificial intelligence.  How it's going to take over the world and destroy mankind when the computers realise they dont need us.
 Yeah right, lets face it computers are so dumb any intelligence would make them worse not better.
Try burning a dvd, how many clicks of the mouse does that take, it's more than you might think.
 Delete a file? yes confirm you actually want to delete it, then confirm windooz can delete the file it's added to your file, then you have to go to the recycle box and delete again to finally get of of something (even then it's technially still on your computer).
Plug in a zipdrive, the computer asks if you want to open it, why? why would I plug the fucker in if I didn't want to access the stuff on it?
 AI bring it on. Exterminate the human race!.. click yes to confirm, then click yes again, type in a password (twice) then click ok.  Oh yes the computers will take over... when they figure out how to use a mouse and keyboard..

Light bulbs !


 Today I changed yet another household light bulb. So much for saving energy.
 The bulb claims a life of 15.000 hours (about 1.7 years left on all the time)  Now this is odd. My bedside lamp is on maybe 2 hours a day tops, that works out roughly 20 years with these bulbs... So why am I replacing the bastards every few weeks? Two obvious possibilites, one my house is wired in such a way as to overload the light bulbs, yet not affecting the TV, stero, recorder or computers. Two the claims on the bulb are total bullshit.  Yes guess which one I go for.

 Answers on a postcard to honest wayne, C/O home for the criminally insane, totally bonkers road, near barking. Dont forget to include a postal order for £5 to cover my sweet addiction.

Paranormal caught on camera tv series


 You have to watch this series, it's just hilarious! Honestly some of the worst acting you'll find outside of Dr Who.
 It's a collection of paranormal videos showing all sorts of weird things... well it would be if the quality on most of the clips wasn't so bad. The potato camera seems to be the camera of choice for paranormal photograpers and videographers.
 Of course most of the clips are fake, and obviously so, so the bad quality helps hide the strings used to move things around.
 Every so often theres a proper clip of something unexplained and real (not many) but the rest are a joke.

 Waynes rating 8/10  its so bad it's good
