This what you call a cluster fuck nowadays

That’s what you call a cluster fuck.

Do journalists not know the plural of stadium is stadia.

There are two plurals of stadium

Morrisons in Reddish - probably 75% of people wearing masks.

In more alarming news they’ve completely run out of ice lollies.

Just picked up 20 rocket lollies from Aldi. Going down a treat.

Some sly bugger had tried to hide the last box of rockets in the coop behing some weird rose shaped ice cream nonsense.

Needless to say, I bought that last box.

We’ve got an emergency stash of those triangle jubbly things.

I really wanted some Cola Calippos.

Came out with a couple of posh Westons ciders instead lol

Nightclubs for fully vaccinated only from end of September - Zahawi​

Zahawi has announced that people will be required to be fully vaccinated to attend "large crowded settings" such as nightclubs from the end of September - after all over-18s have had the chance to receive both vaccine doses and develop immunity.
"So at that point we plan to make full vaccination a condition of entry to nightclubs and other venues where large crowds gather, proof of a negative test will no longer be sufficient," he said.
"We will ensure the appropriate exemptions for those who have genuine medical reasons of why they can't get vaccinated and I'm clear we will always look at the evidence available and do all we can to ensure people can continue to do the things they love."

I wonder if this is a way of getting the younger people who may be thinking: 'I don't really need the vaccine as Covid-19 ain't gonna kill me', to get the vaccine?

I doubt it. Most of them seem unable to add up, The BBC have been giving on news bulletins all weekend the wrong numbers (from Thursday) for how many were in hospital from Covid as they coud not be bothered to add them up on Friday - like I did and posted them in here then - saying the Thursday one was the last data that was available.

Um - not if you know how to add up 1 and 1 it wasn't.

That’s Reddish for you. Went in the local off licence type shop there before. 5 people queuing up. Not one mask. Not a requirement now but they think it’s all over.
