COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Thankfully no.

Many yokels have 6 fingers on one hand, but they do have cider to die for.

Couldn't agree more. Our government structure is unfit for the 21st Century digital age. A Baroness from the House of Lords was put in charge of track and trace. Totally absurd. The press briefings have been like a scene from Blackadder with General Melchett at the helm. It would be funny if it wasn't so bloody tragic. People have died because of this disgraceful failure. The NHS staff are lions led by donkeys.

Was thinking listening to PMQs yesterday how utterly absurd all this “my right honourable friend, the honourable gentleman/lady” stuff.
i can dig all the pomp and ceremony stuff but when it comes to little matters like running the country i think it's totally outdated

What? With table service and Covid configured pubs? People going to each others homes to watch footy and drink is far more dangerous.

We just have a communal trough to swill rough scrump out of, and piss into, here in the Shire. :)

It’s a tough time. I find getting out for a good walk works wonders.

i upped the evening dog walks this summer and absolutely loved it.
Winter came and took that evening light away...but decided to carry on anyway.
I now do dark, wet, cold evening walks with her but changed the mind set and embraced it.
Tend to a good two hour walk (I’m not long back)...discovering nooks and crannies of localities I’d never known.
Massively helped my well being as struggling to fuck this year for a plethora of reasons.
Walk on...run...stay a step ahead from the black dog and next year WILL be better.

Its nearly finished me off in October
The mental health impact on me has been horrific. Others I know have suffered badly.
Sadly I dont see next year being that different, certainly up until the summer.
Theres nothing to do and nowhere to go.

Buy some walking gear and explore this wonderful countryside we are lucky to have.
No bad weather just inappropriate clothing, remember that and you can’t go wrong.
I fill my flask up and we just go lakes, peaks or Yorkshire away from everything no matter the weather and it’s great for the mind body and soul mate.

Spot on mate. I’m out for a good walk tomorrow morning. It totally changes my outlook on the day.

The guy who works for AZ intimated tomorrow would be a good day! Let’s hope so.

I hope that didn’t involve you wandering from a tier 3 area to a tier 2 ........

Yep, fuck it, came into no physical contact with anyone and just drove up and then back.

I would like to think im quite an optimistic person by nature, but for some reason i dont think i have ever felt as downbeat as i do now about this virus. Should be happy but our whole house is down in the dumps and weve been very fortunate financially compared to some. Sad times.

Surely you must be positive about the vaccine ? They are being rolled out in there thousands already - couple months and we could be well on our way.

 

[andyhinch]

Got my test kit I’ve got to mess around on line to send it back, not great when you feel shit but I understand why

Down your throat until you gag. Up your nose until your eyes water.
