Love the term air biscuit Dave 😂

I believe the point of the mask is to help prevent you spreading it, they don't offer protection to you if you don't have it but if you do then it helps prevents the virus spreading. You can't blow out a candle when wearing the proper masks but the cloth ones people have started wearing do absolutely bugger all on either front.

"Floating an air biscuit" is something kids love as well Luke - means they can publicly say what they've done without most people knowing, same goes for us older kids!

As for masks, it was only in relation to particle size that i mentioned them - didn't want to go off on a tangent about the Kung Flu!

Is a tangential blower an air buscuit that has a tendency to wander then?

No it's better known as the heater fan in your car!

Besides, air biscuits should ideally float unassisted so more people can enjoy them for longer!

I had heard that atmospheric agitation can be the death of air biscuits and spoil their mass appreciation!

Now give over!

The Amazon shed made £2850. I thought that was plenty for what it was, but then what do I know?
