I genuinely didn't know that kaz, plus in my defence I was being my usual flippant self.
Happy to be corrected.
Big joe you've got to stay at home mate soz.

But lots of jobs are like that, I have to share a cab and at the minute our job is putting up the high street xmas lights. I am not happy about being in the high street were lots of people dont wear masks and dont obey social distancing.

We all had to get tested on friday as a member of staffs gf and mum and dad have tested positive

I wouldn’t have thought putting up fairy lights was essential but no doubt Boris does!
 
Whatever anyone thinks of Boris he looked knackered tonight. He has has about 5 days off all year. A new dad and could earn 10 times more not being pm and he gets endless shit. A thankless task and he is doing his best.

So Macmillan are just making it up? Good job you didn’t need an endoscopy either.
“A weekly average of 35 478 endoscopy procedures were performed in the pre-COVID period. Activity in the COVID-impacted period reduced to 12% of pre-COVID levels; at its low point, activity was only 5%, recovering to 20% of pre-COVID activity by study end. Out of hospital cardiac arrests, up by 56% from April, child abuse numbers off the scale, battered women the same, suicides on an ever increasing trajectory, so it’s not all about you, after all.

Didnt say they made it up just my experience is the nhs is open, people might have been scared to go but that is another discussion

Know you can call the hospital and ask about where your appts are , call and ask for your consultants secretary or radiology for anything xray related etc

Look this is shite, it is not fair on anyone but we just have to get on with it and each do what we can for each other

Unfortunately too many people don’t have the patience to see the effects and, instead, shout from the roof tops we should all be in completely lockdown.
Pressing the panic button just as some of us have turned a corner.

Not only that, I live in a region with very few cases but to no avail. I rarely see anyone in a shop without a mask and most people have been doing as they were asked and cases have stayed low. All to no avail though, so it’ll hardly be surprising if people just stop bothering. It’s almost as if he’s made an example of the oiks up north and now London might be getting involved, everyone gets treated the same. Funny that..

Not even that really, as they’ve not had long enough to impact hospitals or deaths yet. Still, if the government and SAGE can convince everyone tier 3 then lockdown are what made the difference, everyones a winner........

Forgive me if I have the wrong end of the stick but...
I’m pissed off that we have to go into lockdown next week.
My daughter has just had a baby.
We live in an area that has now controlled the virus again but because of others we can’t meet up again. It’s getting ridiculous. We had no cases here until late May yet had two months of full lock down to put up with.
We’ve had it bad in October so the measures made sense. Now we’re on the right track we’re back in lock down. Frustrating in the least.
 
Has anyone seen Andy Hinch post on here recently? Normally keep in touch and can’t get hold of him? Hope he is ok.

Interesting.
I was booked in for an arse and throat camera in feb this year. I'd had the throat one in jan, and was all good, but my heartrate is too fast and it turned out I have low red bloodcells. So the doc puts me on iron tablets.
No one told me i had to stop taking the iron tablets so when I turn up for the double deed they send me home for my passage will be too dark to film.
I've heard nothing since.
