The Loyal Bobby Sands Defenders Emerald Sons of Ulster Harp Reformation 1916 Memorial Crown and Faith Loughgall Martyrs Luther Commemoration Orange and Purple Maze Escapees Faithful and True Steadfast Pallet Burners Flute Band might do the job but I don't know how many big drums you would need to fit all that on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely don't think any of them know how condescending they are being. Actually, scratch that. Having worked alongside these weirdos I know for a fact they don't realise it. The "how to hug" guide was an absolutely hilarious example. I can guarantee you that these people are genuinely baffled at the criticism they are receiving and cabn't fathom out why they are not being treated like the all-knowing geniuses they truly believe they are. They think they have saved the country from catastrophe and it kills them to know that not only are we not bowing and scraping before them but that we actively take the piss out of them. Our 10 year old grandson has been hugging both of us for weeks whenever he leaves the house and his wee sister gives her granny a hug, too. (I don't get one from her.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highest single day admission was 241 on the 11th January. I'm always wary of single day figures so looking at the 7 day averages. In the week to the 11th January the 7 day average was 196.9 per day. In the week to the 11th February the 7 day average was 92.1 per day. In the week to 11th March the 7 day average was 34.6 per day. In the week to 11th April the 7 day average was 17.9 per day. In the week to 11th May the 7 day average was 9/day. On 3rd and 4th May the 7 day average was 7 per day so that will suit some who wish to be cautious and point out there is a small increase from 7 to 9 per day on average over the last week or so but given where we were in January there is a very impressive decrease. In mid January the number of ICU admissions peaked at a 7 day average of 16.4 per day. It is currently 0.7 per day. Hospital and ICU Covid admissions Those hospital numbers have fairly dropped over the past few months. Any idea what's caused it? We just don't know... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are we just going straight from the 20th to the 22nd? What if its your birthday that day? Seems unfair. You won't need to take any cake into work, so there's that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David W Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I see that some Dumbarton fans are being asked to turn up between 5.45 pm and 6.10 pm for a 7.35 pm kick-off. No kiosks either. I also see that John Swinney is leading the coronavirus recovery. I hope he does a considerably better job that he's done with education; it's a disgrace he's been simply re-employed in a different role. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine health workers in India might be the most exposed people on the planet ATM so happy to attribute some credence to this tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I) Isolate immediately and fingers crossed you don't end up in one of the pyres of burning bodies outside a hospital. (II) Drop some change for a fake test result and book the first flight to NHS land. Or go and get the Punjab 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
