I've to go to the Louisa Jordan next week, anyone know what the deal is with car parking?

First 10 minutes free, then it's a £1 for every hour or part thereof.

All proceeds to our "wonderful nurses".

Sending old people back to care homes from hospitals to clear wards during the first wave because they believed over the top attention seeking modelling predictions were valid will no doubt be forgotten by many but it won't be even close to completely. 

Instead of "completely forgotten about" I should have written "no one will be held to account or censured".

Are we all enjoying Sir Colonel Captain Tom's funeral? His daughter certainly is.

Collection going straight into her purse I imagine. Hopefully the MOD sent her a bill for the soldiers time.

Oh, there will be constant rumblings about it but the general public won't be making a song and dance (I hope to be proved wrong) and no political party will take it up as a cause celebre. (Again, I hope I'm wrong).

Your hope will be in vain.

I'd be willing to bet that come June/July, things will be a lot closer to normal here than they are in New Zealand and Australia...
Not sure about that, it's pretty much normal in Australia already, and they forecast completing their vaccination programme by October at which point they'll look at opening borders.

Ready for Leitch bingo:

 

Variants with a mention for the new scary California and New York variants. 

Near elimination

Australia and New Zealand

Saying it is very doubtful someone will be able to go to a bit and Ben in May. 

Need to wait to see the effect of the vaccine on transmission

"Too early to get the cigars out" would be a tremendous nod to the thread.

Captain Tom doing what he did is great but annoys me because it lets the government hide behind tubthumping and lets them away with actual murder.

Wheres the flypast for the 1000 nhs workers dead because there wasn't ppe or testing?

Nope, not having this.

Even if their vaccination program goes to schedule, they will still have to reach very high coverage across the population, indeed higher than places like Europe or North America which will have a lot of overlapping immunity via natural infection. Any community transmission which leaks through in autumn and winter before this is achieved is likely to lead to more prolonged shutdowns.
