How do you know I wont go to jail? There’s no legal requirement to get tested. I’ve never had a single Covid test and I’m free as a bird. If you want to go somewhere that requires a negative test and you can’t prove you have a negative test the only thing that can happen is you don’t get in. They can’t bang you up for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the space of 1 post you've went from over protecting folk from 'this killer disease' to joking about another poster requiring ventilation and oxygen. I feel you owe the short-statured poster an apology. Anna. Yes, but he is a Falkirk fan. Their attendances are massive so he won't be a huge miss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the devolved settlement? What sofa is it you think Nicola should be looking down the back of? And do you think she is responsible for the drop in trade in England too? It's nearly Christmas, half the family are isolating from positive tests on the 14th so we're all under strict orders to stay in so we won't run the risk of missing the family get together. I have a full and superbly stocked cellar at my disposal (minus 2 Estrella and 2/3 of a bottle of properly exceptional Shiraz/ Cabernet Sauvignon). Mon then. We are clearly at opposite ends of this telescope and I’m never a fan of the P&B pile-on but, in much the same vein as I have previously championed @oaksoft and @Ad Lib , i do admire the indefatigable attitude in the face of advancing Scottish footballing hordes. Your cause celebre is supporting wee Nicola in wherever she goes, with bells on her fingers and rings on her toes. I’m not with you on that crusade (soz) but (genuinely!) do keep at it. It offers an insight to the thoughts of a clearly cogent person who happens to hold a differing view from my own. I don’t agree with almost all of your posts but dots are for children and I recommend you get wired into that wine cellar! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Sannox Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 The Holyrood administration has finally been exposed for what it actually is. A tinpot, neighbourhood watch project. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are also more packed in. About 1.6 times more people live in that small circle of the country than in the whole of Scotland. It's also a travel hub. There's more poverty there and I believe there's also reluctance to vaccinate within some specific demographics, both in terms or race and religion. Wow, that was a fantastically tactful response. Well done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawson Park Boy Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 48 minutes ago, Blue Brazil Forever said: My wife and I, being fairly senior, have been taking lateral flow tests for some time. We have reported the results (always negative) to 119 and until end November we always received two immediate follow up Emails confirming our results. However since the beginning of December we have received no confirmations whatsoever. I have been told the programming has been changed and the system will no longer support Email or postal confirmations. We now have no recent record and tonight we have also tried , five times so far, to report the latest negative results of our LF tests taken at 4.pm. We have been told each time after spending four minutes pressing buttons (a) your call is important to us and (b) because of the very high volume of calls, we cannot proceed with your call and (c) please try again later. I haven't been too fussed even though the EMails are so worded as to cast doubt on the test results. However, the scientists are now urging us to take even more frequent lateral flow tests, even daily ones, and we now need to show proof, otherwise we could be heavily fined or sent to jail.? How can we show we are currently all clear? We have tried all sorts to clarify our condition, including an Email to our local (SNP ) MSP but are chasing shadows since no one seems able to help. Life really is too f*****g short for this kind of shit. For the record, we have had three jabs plus a flu shot and have every intention of surviving for a long time yet. Why not just pack it in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am Featha Taigh Nan Clach Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I'm a fairly selfish person and in the grand scheme of things couldn't particularly care if your gran dies from Covid. If I was in a position to make decisions, the deaths of a few more hundred/thousand peoole would feel like blood on my hands so I'd be far more cautious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re probably older than you and the only tests we’ve taken were essential for us to go abroad on holiday.
