The Egyptian government has asked the city’s taxi drivers to drive around Cairo and sound their car horns; it’s hoped that the familiar sound of the city will induce a return of tranquillity and normality following the recent pandemic.

Operation toot and calm 'em will last for the rest of the week

I'm fat but I've decided to identify as skinny. I'm trans-slender.

With respect to my opening post, I've just been watching our evening news when an item was mentioned about the proposed Tutankhamun Exhibition for Sydney having been cancelled due to coronavirus fears. :-S

I burst out laughing; I mean he's been dead for a few thousand years so he's not likely to be infected.

However, the authorities, in line with current procedure for arrivals from overseas, could have stuck him in a hotel for fourteen days.

But I think that it was cancelled because he was missing his mummy ;-) :-D :-D

Just rang the local restaurant and asked if they do takeaways.

They said they did, so I asked "What’s 157 minus 235?"
