That guy will be a Tory voter; I’d put money on it.

First time I've seen Nurse Valentina Nappi without man sanitizer dripping of her chin

I've always got the utmost respect for people who have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of pornstars names. 

I've just researched her work and her short 'Politico Italiana' video on Porn Hub escalates quite quickly.

Don't most people at the moment?

I can only speak for me and the wife, but neither of us have been furloughed yet, so we’re still working from home and we’ve 3 kids to look after. Not as much time as you’d think.

To be fair, I’d be doing the garden or painting in my free time, so fair play to the man in the rainbow suit and braces. Making a lifesize model of a person with balloons is next on my list after I sort the garden out.

[Scary Bear]

Also, I’m not getting the cynicism for the clap for NHS thing which happens every Thursday at 8pm. The wife and kids lap that up. Seems innocent enough, if ultimately pointless.

In a statement, a Loyalist Corcrain Redmanville Bonfire spokesman said: "This is our respect to the NHS. The bonfire is not happening this year due to the ongoing pandemic so we built this instead."

A Bonfire Spokesman!

Had an e-mail from one of our major suppliers saying that they are starting limited production next week with a view to ramping it up after that.  Wanting to know when we will be reopening and needing product.  I sent back a response saying we will open when we’re advised it’s safe to do so.

Also getting contact from customers asking the same thing.

Loved the Scottish government advice on facemasks - could be useful in places like shops, maybees aye, maybees naw. Not compulsory though, up to you, maybees aye maybees naw. The evidence is inconclusive, but some evidence suggests that the inconclusiveness of the evidence is in itself, inconclusive. So, our advice is, it might be good, if you actually have the virus. If you don’t, then wear one if you want... maybe in a shop, on a bus, in a Turkish men’s sauna. Whatever, just crack on, you daft cnuts.
 

The advice I’ve read is that they can cause as many problems as they are supposed to solve.... facemasks, not the Scottish government.

Edit: of course, they also said a facemask needn’t be a proper medical type thing. Just shove a scarf around your mouth. I’m thinking about how minging my St Mirren 2013 League Cup winners scarf got, after I wore it in exactly that manner through the winter - watching games in shite weather, remember we had three or four named storms? Fcuking thing nearly walked into the bath itself, looking for a hand-wash. Fcuked if I’m walking around trying to breathe through that in the summer. Might need to invest in a 2020 St Mirren ‘ha ha Hearts’ scarf.

It must be difficult for people like you absolutely determined to stick to the guidance when there is a lack of clarity.

Big email debates among some of my colleagues who are out and about visiting customers as to whether they should be wearing masks or not.

I was also copied on an email warning of the risks of burns being caused by some alcohol-based hand-wash products - apparently there have been instances of an 'invisible flame' where hand-wash hasn't been rinsed off fully - sounds a bit extreme, but who knows?

Their advice didn’t make anything difficult for me. I’d read as much evidence about the wearing of facemasks as I could find - from sources that aren’t British politicians. Remember way back, six weeks or so ago, at the time of ‘lockdown lite’ merging into ‘full lockdown’? Remember the sheer amount of mixed messages from Boris & Co? Remember the likes of construction workers saying ‘are we essential? should we be working?’ - the government received a lambasting over their wooly advice on all sorts of things? They were hammered about mixed messages and a lack of clarity.

Six weeks into full lockdown, the Scottish government gives out the wooliest, most vague ‘suggestion’ yet. Mixed messages and a complete lack of clarity. As I said, I’m big enough, ugly enough, and relatively intelligent enough to make up my own mind, I was just surprised that such wooly mixed messages were still thought worthy of being put out there, which will just confuse the hard of thinking by a UK government, so far down this road. I’ll take any sensible advice I can get, but not from these cnuts, and I don’t care what colour their rosette on election day is.

Ach, at least the Scottish government never gave us advice on injecting Dettol into our eyeballs, and how it might help in the fight against a 16 team top flight... something like that.
