I was on a Jet2 flight from Edinburgh yesterday and the pilot commented ‘as we’re flying from a Scottish airport, face masks are required’ Didnt think anything about it at the time but now makes sense. During the flight I didn’t bother wearing one, and, strangely for Jet2, the crew didn’t pull me up. Its over!! Scotland becomes the pariah of Jet2 world for the next few weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drink it slowly, have a biscuit or similar and you’ll get to Luton with a mask hardly on your face. That sounds like more hassle than just wearing a mask. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Got a text for a booster appointment for Scott, who is 16. We went to the drop-in vaccine centre in Sauchie on Saturday and he was turned away as they apparently are not offering them yet. He has to go back this coming weekend. And now we got a letter for his booster appointment...on a different day to the one on the text. Piss up...brewery.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesher Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Day 3 of isolation, feeling almost back to normal, having a coffee and watching a nice film with my feet up. Fantastic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Grimes Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Is the alcohol ban on trains going in the bin this month as well? Will be nice to have a few cans on a train again without being treated like a war criminal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be nice to have a few cans on a train again without being treated like a war criminal They'd be mental not to lift it. The ban has done absolutely f**k all in regards to reducing anti-social behaviour and being able to drink on the train is a big reason why groups of people will choose the train option to travel on weekends. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governments everywhere are admitting defeat on masking. It's over. And the anti-maskers went largely unpunished for their civil disobedience. Them's the breaks folks. Them's the breaks. As the saying goes. Next trick will be saying they protect against nuclear fallout and we should wear them “just in case” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the saying goes. Bloody Hell. What absolute idiocy. I'm not fighting any battle. Masks are a minor irritation and it's good to be seeing the back of them. However, I do reserve the right to laugh at posts suggesting the cruel rules on aircraft can be circumvented by the strategic purchase of a drink and the consumption of a carefully chosen biscuit by nibbles at strict 8 minute intervals. It's laughable that people offer advice on 'sticking it to the man' as WRK rightly puts it, when the thing being resisted is so trivial. I think it's joke figures like yourself, who now need to do the moving on. Everyone else is simply happily adjusting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Well locking the wean up didn't help as I had my first positive LFT this morning Started the day with a sniffle but now shivering like I'm sitting on a washing machine at full spin. If I were allowed out I could go to a local karaoke bar and comfortably perform side 2 of David Bowie's Low... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
