Visiting friends, family etc has been going on for a while now. The younger folk I know are literally on it every weekend at parties. A lot of people have been doing this a lot longer. Ain't that right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be eased faster obviously marginally until the election but they could for 6 from 3 in the April easements. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Only reason I can’t see them bringing it forward this side of the election is possible accusations of using it to gain favour from the electorate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be wholesale changes but some changes will be brought forward unlikely to be anything that changes businesses reopening to save messing people about imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no intention of not letting people come visit me, or visit them until well into the summer. Day 526 in the Bairnardo Bunker: Thanks to the panic spread by the government everyone still is too terrified to visit me. It seems that Germophobia is running rampant as every time I contact one of my friends to propose a meeting they say they are washing their hair that day. No-one wants to come and view the 200 page dossier on the Leitch-Sridhar axis. The struggle continues. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

effeffsee_the2nd Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 A lot of people have been doing this a lot longer. Ain't that right. That can’t be true there would be a 6th wave and double variant if it was. Wait 2 weeks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think the scenes show that a huge amount of people want their lives back, and the time for sacrifice is coming to an end. It also shows how disconnected all the social media clowns are that band about keeping the pubs shut and keeping SD as some sort of barely consequential, just incase measure. Bin it, set the bin on fire. Bury the ashes. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest_Man#1 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) The scenes we are starting to see now are fucking glorious. I’m going home to stay at my parents’ in a couple of weeks where I’ll be visiting a few different households over the course of the weekend, and couldn’t possibly feel any less guilty or anxious about it. People are free to sit terrified in their houses alone for as long as they want, and it’s a shame that government messaging has led to this sort of irrational level of fear, but not for me anymore. Data not dates. Edited April 12, 2021 by Honest_Man#1 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.V.T. Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Can’t wait until they announce the soho variant due to those shocking scenes. They’re surge testing for the SA variant in two London boroughs after a big cluster. Close the WHSmiths 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You absolutely love to see it. If I had to name 5 areas in Glasgow that would snitch on their neighbours I reckon Bishopbriggs would've had a proud place as well. A friend of a friend just had a baby and her mum was up to give a bit of support (which is very much allowed) and one of the neighbours phoned the police. Police basically turned up said "aye that's fine, sorry for bothering you". I reckon the places this will be most rife will be the sort of middle-class new build areas where folk move to have big shiny houses to show off to their pals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madwullie Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) I mean for all the jokes about variants in here, the real issue is the vast swathes of the world that don't have access to the hundreds of millions of doses certain western countries are hoarding. There is every chance some places will have wave after wave until non-vaccine produced HI kicks in. It doesn't need to be like that. And yes, of course the longer the virus runs rampant, the more chance of more variants of concern arising. As I say, in our jagged up utopia that shouldn't prove an issue for us, but that doesn't really help the millions of other poor c***s in the world denied access, partly through our greed. I would have hoped it would be a priority for us to tool up the poorer nations ASAP and squash the virus totally - foolishly it never crossed my mind that vaccine nationalism and greedy hoarding would be even remotely the issue it's turned out to be. I suppose if I'd thought about it for even half a second it would have been fucking obvious though. I was reading the other day that part of the contractual obligations signed up to by the trump admin is that no doses from the states are allowed to be given to any other countries at all.

Got to think a lot of these c***s won't even actually give a shit about the virus, and will just be looking for an excuse to phone the polis on their neighbour because they hate them due to one noisy party a few years ago, or their weans constantly in their garden for their footballs or whatever. Arseholes. I know round here it's been pretty loose. People have had the odd gathering (mainly kids playing and the parents hanging about too) but the odd drinking session anawl. As long as they aren't belting out tye sash or rebel tunes at midnight outside my weans' windows I couldn't really give a f**k tbh. I only know of the one time the polis were called that I wrote about a few weeks ago - and that was definitely a case of a neighbour just wanting to out the boot in because of a perceived slight.

craigkillie Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Where I am is fine as well. My parents and my wife's parents have been up semi-frequently since Sturgeon confirmed that providing support to parents with children under 1 was a reasonable excuse for travel (they were both worried about getting stopped by the police before that because apparently the borders out of Ayrshire are being fairly regularly patrolled). Our neighbours a couple of doors down had a baby recently too, and her mum has been in their bubble the whole time. None of the neighbours have had any issues with this, and I haven't seen the police on the street once. One of the neighbours have started having groups of folk over for BBQs and so on again recently, but again nobody gives a f**k, and nor should they. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
