Outdoor transmission in summer has never resulted in huge spikes. And the link between cases and hospitalisation and deaths is totally broken. The vaccines are completely pumping all variants. It's an exit wave and absolutely no danger of overwhelming the NHS. More importantly, if you plot cases in the U.K and the U.S on a graph, you get a Brontosaurus.

If this utter knicker-wetting nonsense actually comes to pass can the ban on The Proclaimers extend throughout the U.K until the end of time please? https://www.thenational.scot/news/19353223.proclaimers-hit-song-banned-euro-2020-fanzone-excitement-fears/

@Lord Fellatio Nelson I was down in Inverness when they opened the pubs and I know what I saw!

And husbands. I'm in this picture and I don't like it. RIP Mr Elizabeth Taylor Hilton Wilding Todd Fischer Burton Burton Warner (Fortensky) Apparently she absolutely hated being married to a United States senator for more than the obvious reasons. Wasn't allowed to wear purple because it was politically controversial. I'd not put up with that either.

Cheery wee song for a Sunday, and if you aren't shot dead just existing as a citizen of the Greatest Democracy on Earth, there's always this way out.

Absolutely no idea this thread existed so I just assumed it was started after 2007 when the entire forum was wall to wall utter wankers and I completely stopped even reading it. Oh. Look.

In defence of our glorious leaders, it's actually useful to have member / moderator accounts from a tech point of view if you are wanting to know how the forum software looks and works for the various strata. I had one for that very reason but fucked if I still know the login and it doesn't even matter now. The ModeratEr Wars were terrific craic at the time though @Windsor

I'm already looking forward to voting in May and possibly being able to talk to an actual person like when the library was open. Had to move across the country really suddenly so I never had the chance to meet anyone here before all this. And my lease prevents me having any pets, FML. Next door got seven guinea pigs before lochdown though so I might take a few of those once I'm allowed to do more than chat over the fence. Put wee rosettes on them. I bet there's at least one looks like a Tory.

The irony of HS2 blazing ahead when the entire U.K is preparing to restructure to a permanent WFH model is lost on nobody.

You aren't too far from me by Highlands measures surely. Did you grass them? I'd have did it based on music choices tbh. I was absolutely delighted that my da buying the Daily Mail became an actual crime at one point and himself getting a police escort home multiple times. If only this was law forever.

Honestly they have all gone now. I might shed a tear when Peter Falk finally succumbs to Alzheimer's though.

Just a bit of appreciation for the alleged "snowflake generation" who were hit completely suddenly, same as the rest of us true, but we had bad things Thatcher happen so were not so surprised and better equipped for it. I'm absolutely amazed and encouraged by their resilience so far and the younger members here are to be applauded for their utter courage if you ask me. They really have shown so much bravery in the face of this utter shitstorm. My daughter had an entire pregnancy and birth without her mother (or any support) due to restrictions. I don't know when I will be ever able to hold the wee girl, but my loss is nothing measured against hers without her mother. I think we're totally forgetting the sacrifices made by young people. I see them though, and thank fuck. Their sense and maturity really gives me hope. Unless that's just elite DLers?

That's the entire moderating team binned then. Does anybody know who the fuck they even are? Fourteen years, no wiser. Edit: Sixteen. And still nobody really knows

@mscI have absolutely no authority at all. It's great. New year, new me! FTM! More concerning is how to explain the avatar change to SC who is obviously quite disturbed by this development.

Read the standing orders! @The Quim Reaper READ THEM AND UNDERSTAND THEM!!!111!!!

Go to desktop version @Paul Bearer. It's like, just a click away on your phone.

"Almost"

SC told me that 2020 would be spectacular on Facebook so this whole year is his fault btw. Let's have a better one.

If you haven't almost burnt the house down and other regrettable things you are all doing Hogmanay wrong.

Said the actress to the bishop. Thanks for not banning it though. I'll use it to talk to Deathray.

@Paul Bearer @Death Impends @DevonDeathTrip Why isn't Pauline Bearer coming up? Have they banned that?

It's Hogmanay with just a Cajan twist. Everything has a Cajan twist and Americans will fry absolutely anything like Weegies. "Dear Admins, can we get TQRs name changed to "that c**t previously known as The Quim Reaper" Might be too long though.

My best pal is called Lang after Eddie Lang, a jazz guitarist I think. I don't know why he wasn't just called Eddie. His Dad got a Times obit though. **Please excuse the rice on that dinner. SC stays in Louisiana and theres absolutely no telling him. Anything. Ever.

Okay I'm unlocking this one now not that anyone noticed. Please post in my legit Hogmanay one.

Thread locked.
