The SUVs I noticed have a dark tint on all windows behind the front seat.
Consider a black blanket to cover equipment.

That works really well. I have a seven seater people carrier. I use a black sheet and even in the brightest sunlight it’s impossible to see what is in the area behind the driver and passenger seats.

To the person who wrote about the two reactions to the vivid vaccine.
On television today in England the prime minister Boris Johnson was doing a corona virus special with Johnathan Van Tam the deputy health official for England he is a top epidemiologist and Sir Steven Vance the head of the NHS.
Jonathan Van Tam spoke about the incidents that cannon user mentioned they were nothing to do with the Pfizer vaccine as they happened two days and eight days after the vaccine was given, this is before the vaccine would start to work ten to eleven days after the first injection so saying the vaccine caused this is fake news.

There were two bits of good news today firstly parliament passed the bill that means we have finally left the EU on the first of January and second but if good news is the Oxford/Astra Zenica vaccine will start to be given on the 4th of January and the UK government has ordered 100 million doses and this vaccine can be kept in a refrigerator.
To the person who wrote about the two reactions to... (show quote)

To call these two quite serious incidents fake news is pretty irresponsible and fails totally to understand the facts.
The reality is that this came after two NHS workers had allergic reactions.
The advice not to have the vaccine or only do so following medical advice applies to those who have had reactions to medicines, food or vaccines, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency said.
The two people had a reaction shortly after having the new jab, had treatment and are both fine now.
They are understood to have had an anaphylactoid reaction, which tends to involve a skin rash, breathlessness and sometimes a drop in blood pressure. This is not the same as anaphylaxis which can be fatal.
Both NHS workers have a history of serious allergies and carry adrenaline pens around with them.
Professor Stephen Powis, medical director for the NHS in England, said both individuals were recovering well.
He said this was "common with new vaccines", describing it as a precautionary measure.
Dr June Raine, head of the MHRA, said it was only right to take this step now that "we've had this experience".
Reactions like this are uncommon, but do happen with other vaccines, including the annual flu jab.
Several thousand people were vaccinated on Tuesday in hospital clinics on the first day of the UK rollout of the new Covid jab.
Prof Peter Openshaw, an expert in immunology at Imperial College London, said: "The fact that we know so soon about these two allergic reactions and that the regulator has acted on this to issue precautionary advice shows that this monitoring system is working well.

Hard to tell if it is 'good news' or not since we do not know the number vaccinated.

This was never intended to be a scientific post. However, knowing the size of our district, knowing that over 80s have received priority and knowing that vaccination staff had been working from 8.00am to 8.00pm vaccinating those over 80, for well over two weeks without there being a single negative outcome, I felt justified in my feeling that this was good news.
However, you are of course welcome to think differently.

And what did you expect?......

From the reports we have seen there have been two quite serious anaphylaxis reactions in the UK. This may have concerned a number of people and I just felt this information would reassure people about the vaccine.
It was nothing to do with what I expected, although to satisfy your curiosity, I would have expected to hear of some reactions from amongst hundreds of those 80+ receiving the vaccine.

I’ve just been to our local surgery for a routine blood pressure test. Whilst there I ascertained that the surgery is a covid vaccination centre for the district.
So far they have vaccinated half of those 80+ years with the Biontech/Pfizer vaccine and are now awaiting a further delivery of vaccines.
To their knowledge there has not been a single negative reaction from anyone vaccinated so far.
So, that’s all pretty good news.

Very simply, when you pull from below the axle, the pinion in the rear axle will always try to drive the crown wheel in a circular forward motion. When an attempt is made to pull an immovable object from above the axle, the crown wheel remains stationary and the pinion climbs up it, actually driving the tractor up and over backwards.
I once had a cutaway video of this happening. It was aimed at convincing tractor drivers of the danger of pulling from a point above the rear axle.

Just over four hours ago the first person in the World, outside clinical trials, had the first Corona Virus jab. It took place at Coventry University Hospital just 10 miles away from where I live.
Whilst there are of course many many millions to go Worldwide, let’s hope this can be seen as the beginning of the end.
Humorously, the second person to get the jab at the hospital was a William Shakespeare from Warwickshire, but clearly not the bard.

I think some responses have become quite clinical and meaningless. The one I notice more than any is, ‘Have a nice day.’ If you listen carefully it can mean anything from, ‘Now piss off and stop bothering me,’ to, ‘It’s been a real pleasure to serve and look after you and I really do hope you enjoy the rest of your day.’
Tone of voice and facial expression I feel are the real giveaways.

Shop in a store and they put it in a bag. No cutting and NO WAITING FOR IT you just take it with you.

....and run a greater risk of getting the virus. On-line shopping must have prevented thousands of infections and possible deaths.
I avoid shops like the plague it can be at this time.

That was the very point I was making to a previous poster. It always pays to read a full thread before jumping on board.

There are DAMN FEW "open minds" in the present population. Yes, we should not be so quick to inject our distrust of Putin and his Russia into purported discoveries or accomplishments. Let's see the results after a period of time.

Suggest you give it a try and come back and tell us how it went.

For a time Brigham Young lived less than a mile from where I live now in the UK. The thatched cottage on the outskirts of the village of Maxstoke in Warwickshire is named Sky Cottage.
Brigham Young held services in a still standing farmers barn. He was eventually chased out of the area by staunch Church of England members.
When we get occasional visits from Mormons, the vast majority have no idea about Brigham Young’s connection with our village all those years ago.
