More than once I've been tempted to try a curtsey, and see if I get a bow in response!
(Is the Lambda one the one supposed to be from Peru?)

Josey reply #44 and ThrelfallYorky reply #45. I approve of all those greetings except elbow bumps. I don't want to be bumped by anyone. My small, delicate bones never liked firm handshakes and wouldn't like elbow bumps either. Advice on sneezing and coughing was if a person didn't have a hankie they should sneeze/cough into an elbow.
I shall be bringing my crinoline out from the wardrobe and practising my curtsey.

... and then bump that same, sneezed-in elbow with someone else's, as a greeting??
I'll just curtsey.

I never did elbow bump, now it also sounds as though it could be a health hazard ::)

A "bob" is customary when greeting an acquaintance. Copy female characters in Austen or Gaskell dramas. Demelza realised she'd been transformed into gentry on marrying Ross Poldark when a village girl of her own age curtsied to her; it was a bob-style curtsey in the tv series.
A Theresa May low curtsey is not required, not even when meeting HM, and certainly not when wearing a short or slim-fitting skirt, or high heels.  :)
I'll teem my crinoline with a wide-brimmed bonnet. I might carry a parasol (umbrella) + a fan; either may come in useful to bat someone away.

Lower than a worm's waistcoat button at need, Josey - but my cats bow to no-one!

Apologies - I'm thinking that I'm losing the plot somewhere!

Covid associated deaths since 19 July 2021 (taken from BBC website)

19 - 19
20 - 96 (always higher on Tuesday)
21 -73
22 - 84
23 - 64
25 - 86 Not sure what happened to 24th
26 - 14
27 - 131 (again = Tuesday)
28 - 91

Are cases really getting lower?   :-\
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

54,000 cases on July 17th, 27,000 today. The trend is very obviously downwards.

Is wasn't that long ago there was a thread on here about there being no deaths! Now they are nearer a 100 every day than zero.

I suppose compared to the number of cases the deaths are lower.
