  1. I had Covid back in the Summer having had 2 jabs. I had to cancel a UK holiday because of it. I had the booster nearly 4 weeks ago and next week I'm due to go to Tenerife. What does alarm me is the UK government's insistence that I do a LFT prior to coming back to the UK and then a PCR within 2 days of arrival. I can't see  the point of this as the variant is circulating freely in the UK and has been for a couple of weeks. 

    All their policies are doing is making me shit scared of going anywhere or meeting people in case I catch it again before I go, or worse still I test positive whilst out in Tenerife and I am barred from coming back.

    Statistically it is likely that someone on the plane travelling out there will have it anyway as someone will when coming back. It's all a joke and is putting people off trying to do semi-normal things with their lives.

    If old age didn't get him then his diet certainly would! I'm not sure what that is supposed to be on his plate...


  3. Interesting that scientists are predicting daily death rates anywhere between 600 and 6000 whilst we live under PLan B. At the same time we have govt ministers opposed to restrictions. Two things are for certain:-

    1) The NHS isn't adequately funded and resourced to deal with this kind of crisis. That may have to change in the short to medium term if we are to avoid finding ourselves in this situation again.

    2) Either the scientists are wrong or those ministers opposed to further restrictions are. If the latter get their way then we will see how accurate the modelling is and whether lives are lost as a result of  hands-off approach from govt. Someone will have egg on their face if the strategy of doing nothing is followed. 


  4. Hopefully I'm not offending anyone or breaking a long established convention, but I saw this and thought to myself that there is no limit to extent to which people will use the law to seek retribution (normally hefty financial settlements) for alleged infringements of their own human rights / privacy etc

    Presumably this guy feels slighted by his parents / Nirvana and society in general, but if he does win his case then it opens up a can of worms. Personally I think it is pretty cool , but this chap is evidently short of cash.
