Not just in shops, etc? Aye in Englandshire. Worth remembering that it's Tiers in England and Levels in Scotland It easy to remember if you follow these simple steps. Spoiler Tears for Thatcher.

DiegoDiego Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 We had to wear masks whenever we were out during lockdown. Actually easier, didn't have to think about whether it was needed.There was also a requirement to wear non-fabric gloves in shops. That was more of a hassle, especially as my skin really didn't like them. For some reason it was a lot easier to forget gloves than your mask. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marly Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 From Cumbernauld United manager Kieran McAnespie. Do we know anybody who stays near Utd's ground? Wonder if there was social distancing when he was a cameraman for Babestation? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A while back they said they’d produce 1.2bn doses of AZ in 2021 so they must be knocking them out in more places than the UK. AZ have plants all over the gliobe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Are you thinking of going up and chapping their door?Its within my skillset probably, but everyone I have ever known that worked at that particular site (former ICI, Zeneca, Avecia and whatever is still there now) has that distinct "few too many fumes inhaled" air about them. So it's a no from me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 There's a whole load of aspects related to this vaccine being ramped up with AZ dedicating resources and people from other projects (including production for abroad) but it also relies on outsourcing of manufacturing, testing of batches, packaging and distribution. If they can vaccinate the predicted numbers it will be as much a modern-day miracle as producing the vaccine in the first place (which they've managed to do so I'm not saying it's impossible). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, I have an auld pal who worked in the shipyards and he tells similar stories so maybe it was rife everywhere. But the mix of heavy industry and swally seems to have been as common as it was mental. For my money, f**k getting pissed up all night at work. Imagine how lousy you would feel in the morning going to bed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
