letˋs see how it works - hate other coconuts in the garden...

I'll be interested to know how you get on.

The only person I know who has problems with coconuts invading his garden is my pal in Barbados. They just seem to drop in from the sky. I'll suggest this technique to him if you find it successful.

Further to this;
Fact
More people die by being hit on the head by coconuts than in shark attacks.

Possibly True
No one carrying and openly displaying a half coconut has been hit on the head by another coconut.

Logical(?) Conclusion
As I’m sure Mkiss will soon verify from his scientifically controlled experiment it is possible to ward off other coconuts.

You have perfectly discovered my problem in setting up a scientific study.
There is no control garden that had been hit or invaded by a coconut in the last century.

May be we will kick off a new trend in bird feeding.

I have been asked what it was and they tend to look at me as I was an alien when they get the answer.

May be it is the start of the perfect social distancing.

Has anyone been hit on the head by a coconut whilst driving a Morgan?
If not then a good reason to spend more time driving one.

You may have a point, perhaps Morgan’s ward off attacks by coconuts although I have been hit by their distant cousin;

Matt Halfcock is an idiot: he believes that the virus can be eliminated and so Zones and Social distancing will be needed for all next year.

The only virus that has been eliminated is smallpox, and that took 30+ years.

Covid, like flu, is here to stay, and so will be annual vaccinations.

Get real, Halfcock!
