Shock horror 🙄 I’m sure no one expected that.

now it’s about time sanctions are levied on the Chinese and assets frozen.

If that happens, what would be the flow on effect to Lotus for instance?

I just got an email from the govt saying I no longer have to shield. Err, yay!!

^^^^^^ditto^^^^^ 😉
 

Apparently I won’t be getting the wisdom of their advise on the future either 🙄

Not a lot of social distancing etc at the B&C Emira events - as seen on their facebook posts. Looks like quite a crowd.

[Bibs]

There's no requirement to socially distance any more though?

We went to the theatre last night and similar situation there. Capacity audience, no requirement to wear masks and interestingly a mostly older (over 60s) crowd, barely any of whom chose to wear a mask. I saw maybe half a dozen max.

In my view it was nice to see that even the more vulnerable folks are taking confidence from being double jabbed and it was equally nice to be in a 'normal' environment amongst people having a good time and enjoying being out again.

We went to see Genesis at the AO arena in Manchester - capacity 21,000. No social distancing and very little face mask wearing.

Sad to see Phil Collins on the bbc last week talking about his tour. He’s a very talented chap who’s sadly running out of time. There but for the grace of god go I.

Covid: Anti-vax protesters intimidate teen outside jab centre - BBC News

Tragic and people like that should be arrested. What right do they think they have to harass somebody for doing something that has no impact on their lives whatsoever.

The BBC? 

 

Or the harrasers?....

Local school to us - anti-vax protest outside the school.

Grow up.

I was checking the BBC website just now and clicked on to their coronavirus homepage. The main story was titled “Four numbers that reveal the trends” and had been published 7 hours previously. Anyway I started reading and it seemed to be claiming that things were looking up, until I realised that the whole report seemed to have been written about 10 weeks ago at the end of July! Here are the screenshots.

So where do they get the numbers from that are on the placard that the lady in the first photo is holding?

14,463 cardiac disorers (yes, that's how she spelt it).

36,132 reproductive disorders. 159 birth defects.

How are these numbers classified as being directly attributable to a Covid injection?

[gregs24]

Why let facts get in the way of a good protest ?

I suspect you will find they are alt-facts, along with the vaccine containing poisons. alien eggs and nano-particles

I've been feeling a bit rough since my vaccines and my belly has ballooned like a woman pregnant with Triplets (nothing to do with pies or ale, honest). Oh shit, maybe those eggs were fertilised and......

I had a text this morning to book my booster jab. Tried the website and that said it's for Healthcare or Social Workers only so called and was told I had to wait 'til the 25th to have it, eg Monday but I can't book it for next week now, I have to call back and book it after the 6 months & 1 week wait from the 2nd jab. Bit weird really and perhaps show why we're struggling to get the boosters done, very disorganised for what should be a simple administrative task.

I also went to my doctors at the weekend for the flu jab which I've had every year for 15 years now as I'm immunocompromised but when I turned up at 9am they had run out already.

Had my flu jab at the pharmacy

I'm going to nip to Boots and get it done I think too.
