View Full Version : Looking to self-isolate?

Looking to self-isolate?

At Lake Keepit with barely 3 humans per square kilometre, you can happily achieve social separation away from the bacterial petri dish of city life and still enjoy life to the full.

Bring your own germ-free glider and tie it down far from anywhere or simply sanitise the well-equipped cockpit of one of LKSCs club gliders with a quick alcohol wipe.

Keepit’s 365 day a year operation means you can stay as long as you like to avoid re-infection and with a wide range of accommodation choices from luxury to camping, you’re as isolated as you want.

Instruction and coaching by quarantined instructors is available for those wanting to brush up old skills or learn some new ones… while you still can.

P.S. BYO bog roll

You might want to read your local newspaper before laying out the welcome mat.

People should realise that Lake Keepit membership requires a sense of humour.

My mother always told me if I self-isolated my hand would stay that way.

about the one square method?

No TDYs to UK? The RAF TP was kind of rough and wax paper like.

I met the stuff at a Naval establishment in Bath, but I don't remember
rough at all. Thin, tough, waxed to a shiny finish and each sheet stamped
with "Property of HMG". Not exactly fit for purpose.

Yeah, not really rough, though we joked about the wood chips in it (not).

"One Square" Do you mean John Wayne toilet paper "Don't take **** off nobody"

Nope.

Fold that square diagonally twice to yield a triangle.Â* Remove the
corner (save it for later), unfold.Â* You now have a square with a hole
in the center.Â* Place middle finger through the hole...

Nah...Â* This ain't fit for mixed company.

I was at one of the London museums in the early 90's and found the same waxy toilet paper. Every other (metric I am sure) square was stamped "please now wash your hands". I kept one square and have it somewhere in the "archives".

Maybe the wax coating is so that you can get a "Brazilian wax" at the
same time...?

For the computer geeks among you:

This is something else I heard many years ago while a bunch of us were
fixing the Royal Navy's home-designed-by-chimps stores management system
while enjoying the use of that thin, waxy, shiny stuff that skids off
instead of cleaning your nether regions.

When the RN pulled out of Singapore and moved back to Blighty, being of
an economical frame of mind and harassed by beancounters to boot, they
brought back *everything* they could get on their ships - including
several shedloads of unused rolls of that aforementioned waxy, shiny
stuff.

No problem showed while transporting it, or even unloading it. However,
when they tried to put it on inventory back on the home base, the
mainframe crashed with a numeric overflow.

The reason? Some governmental genius had decided that the perfect way to
record the amount of toilet paper in store wasn't by crates, packages or
even rolls, but *individual sheets*

Forget TP, soon we will be able to wipe our asses with our share certificates.

Really?Â* The price of your shares may have decreased, but not the
number.Â* The price will rise again (unlike the South).Â* If you have
spare cash, you should be buying more shares.Â* I wish I could add to my
401(k), but I'm retired and living off of it.
