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.

Is that football or soccer?

Quite the opposite of a death occurring here, apparently this has all brought Prince Andrew’s sweat glands back to life.I bet his sphincter has loosened somewhat also.

I had him at the top of my list as I did John Edrich a year ago. Cricketers have a habit of early dismissals, but that's par for the course given the current state of the England team

I went to see the Libertines a couple of weeks ago in Birmingham. A good night. I understand that they have cancelled the Cardiff gig due to the dreaded variant.

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.

Thomas Hughes is probably worth a thread of his own and could be an outside bet for 2022

In other words "you are sacked, but don't slag us off and we'll give you a hefty pay-off" -
Got to be on 2022 list sadly

Sam Oji: Former Birmingham City defender and Arsenal youth player dies at age 35 - BBC Sport
Oji had a spell at my club, Hednesford Town , a couple of years back and everyone was unanimous in saying what a nice guy he was. Not clear what happened to him, but 35 is no age. RIP

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
Nirvana sued by the baby from Nevermind's album cover - BBC News
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.

I remember watching Hendrick bowl on TV and benaud used to berate him on commentary for not pitching it up enough.
Apparently had he done so, in Benaud's opinion , he would have taken more wickets.
Funny how little things like that stick with you.
RIP
