The small gas burner on my countertop only burns very weakly
compared to the other which is fine .
Suspect the gas is not making its way out somewhere in the recess ...
how do I fix this and clean besides compressed air etc
Where and how is gas meant to be emitting from down here ?

Done this before , but a long time ago think the problem is a stoppage in the gas knob ( the one that regulates the flame) take apart and clean

Does anyone personally know anyone who has had this Covid 19 virus?

Yes and no.
A good friend in London was down with all the symptoms for 11 days, he lost 9kg.
He was treated by paramedics at his home. He coughed incessantly and could not function properly due to lack of oxygen.
The “no” part.... he wasn’t tested so he doesn’t form part of the official stats.

I've read in Saudi Arabia diesel costs 75c/l... at the pump.
Just imagine...

I haven't done any 4x4'ing, but Fearless' 5 year old 2nd battery packed up during lock down.
To be fair to the NCCC (Numbnut Clueless Clot Club) - it was showing signs before Lock Up was announced.
As soon as Lock Up ended on 1 May I called around for prices.
Cheapest (again) was Toyota.
So I popped to Halfway Toyota (they say halfway, but I had to drive all the way there) & got one.
Took 10 minutes to swop out the batteries & 12 minutes to go through all the Health & Safety BS...
R1 976.00
Funny aside to the story: When I told Ge'Off (Wave) that the dealer was cheaper he thought he'd try that route.
His wife's Polo battery was giving up, so he called a VW dealers - R4 800.00.
Ge'Off, Ge'Off, the 'Try the Dealer' trick doesn't work with the Germans - they charge like the Blitzkrieg into Poland...
