19QOS19 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 My local basketball team has been denied promotion due to the lockdown (they're sat in first but could still have fucked it, to be fair).My town hasn't had a championship winning team in a decade. This year all three semi-pro teams (football, basketball and handball) are top of their leagues yet could be denied silverware.I hope you stay in Liverpool. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it’s the right thing to do but it will have a big impact socially on children and it’s far from petty. With loving and caring parents she's going to be scarred for life by not seeing her friends for a few weeks? Or go to her dancing class? At three years old? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 All my bairns dancing competitions have been cancelled for the foreseeable and I can honestly say I'm delighted as f**k (if such a phrase exists). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 My 17 year old is getting right on my tits. She has hitherto hated school and, now she is let of the hook and doesn't have to take A Levels, has told me, to quote, "honestly i miss school so much !! wish i was there ,haha" I recognise this could be posted on a few P&B threads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowal was a fucking unmitigated saturated hell hole last year. Already kind of praying this Covid carries on until late August then disappears overnight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to upload and move things on Microsoft Teams on the other hand... Not that I'm moaning, I understand the number of people trying to access it would be incredible compared to a normal day. Just a bit frustrating setting something up, uploading it then it fails just before it looks set to go online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Jack Russells. I'm a dog lover and rarely pass one in the street without petting it but if there was a Coronavirus like infection that only affected these little fuckers I'd be over the moon. Yappy little shits and in my experience pretty aggressive as well. My neighbour has recently bought a puppy and that's it now finding it's voice when it's out the back. Can see words being exchanged at some point during the summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
