About a dozen of the girls had a house / hot tub party a week past Saturday. Since then 7 of them have developed classic symptoms of a cold. They all did LFTs all negative however 4 of the seven refused to accept that they were negative and booked PCRs, again all returned negative. Three of that 4 still refuse to accept that they don't have it and yesterday booked another PCR and despite all 3 again testing negative they have decided to take their kids out school (despite them having zero symptoms) to isolate with them (we all WFH anyway) absolutely bat shit crazy stuff. 12 LFTs, 7 PCRs no positive results yet kids taken out if school and holed up indoors with their parents for absolutely no reason. Weird thing was they didn't appear to have isolated ahead of their original PCR results ! They should all be fined for taking their kids out of school. They are just using COVID as an excuse for a carry on. Morons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kept mine off once my son tested positive as knew it would go through them. Yep! There's no way I am taking either of my 2 through the test for tiredness or sore muscles. I'd be doing a PCR daily! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been sent home day two back with sore head and tummy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went to see some soup pot tour and invited me along. Being an antisocial b*****d and someone with taste I declined my ex was so happy to get a selfie with janey afterwards and not long after that we broke up. I blame Janey for that... She's a cook, too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The are so many people who think anything with a “wee Scottish twist” to it is just utterly hilarious. it’s so parochial and I genuinely cannot understand how they can find it so funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I remember seeing Janey Godley at a stand up night years ago and she was alright. The voice overs and whole "what are we like" Glasgae patter routine is shite.Wait what but did you find alright since you followed up by saying her entire routine is shite? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Seriously weird that if they're that paranoid, they thought that a hot tub party would be a good idea.It beggars belief. By all accounts it was a few drinks that "developed" into the hot tub once they were half cut. It's not so much paranoid as actually appearing to want to have Covid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't help when they tell everyone who'll listen that they're the funniest people on earth. It's like when Rangers fans claim they're the most successful club in the world when no one else in the world thinks or acknowledges that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could argue if it helps with containment, but it is a boon for controlling the populous. The ultimate goal. Vaxxing will become mandatory for jobs as the political rhetoric now takes a turn in that direction and the population being suckered into it. I can't see this being the case for pubs and restaurants, staff have taken enough shite throughout this pandemic and banning folk from the local because they aren't double jabbed is never gonna happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superbigal Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Was an unpublished but welcome change to policy in NHS dentistry this week.Currently when doing AGPs the surgeries need fallow time for everything to settle. This varies due to circumstances but is for the safety of the next patient.This is one of the reason many treatments are not carried out due to sheer downtime involved. However if you now when triaged can prove you have had and recovered from covid in the last x months (unsure of x), then fallow time is reduced to zero minutes.In the real world it is odd that the recently recovered do not have exceptions to the isolation rules as they currently are.Seems quite obvious that these people of which there are thousands, should not have to go for pcr tests or self isolate etc when a contact.A far better passport if you may than a vaccine passport. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Dublin I saw it happen. Bars that had only just been reopened would refuse customers who wanted to sit inside if they didn't have proof. Said it wasn't worth the risk to be lenient and folk were accepting of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but I genuinely can't see it being the case in Scotland. Certainly small independent pubs won't give a flying f**k and who is going to police it at the end of the day. Surely licensing authorities wouldn't have the ability to walk into a bar and demand every customer on the premises shows them their vaccination proof and the police have better things to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My social circle is pretty limited these days but I don't know any adults who haven't been double jagged. Would pubs and restaurants actually lose much custom? It would be a hassle having to check everyone of course but no different from checking id for underage drinkers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
