We had the fireworks for the first time tonight - there appears to be one family in the McMansions a couple of streets down that takes any opportunity possible to re-enact the opening barrage of the first day of the Somme at every available opportunity, so I'm surprised it's taken this long.

And yeah, it's displacement behaviour of the highest order - folk are dropping like flies and the UK government's totally out of it's depth, but we clapped for the NHS and some old boy's doing circuits of his garden, so everything's okay really.

It is seriously infuriating.  Saw a comment today about Johnson’s approval rating going up.

What a bunch of stupid, thoughtless, moronic p***ks we have in the U.K.  F*ck the lot of them.

they're the ones that you want to plant some surprises on - tube of KY jelly and a large cucumber being the best combination; keep an eye on them and watch when they go through the checkout to check the reaction; couples are the best target as the one loading the conveyor will assume the other has put them in the trolley, so you might get a flare up before the items get anywhere near the cashier/packing end...

This is weird as f**k, mate.

So my neighbours who were having the birthday gathering, the tadger with the dinosaur costume and the ones who let their daughter go out with her pals were out clapping for the NHS. Thats lovely that.

CLAP THE NHS

HAVE A PARTY

DRESS UP AS A DINOSAUR

 

Not sure that last one will fit on the third lectern.

Went to aldi for the weekly shop, f**k me, there are some morons out that shouldn't fucking be. They've marked arrows on the floors and put cages between ends of the middle sections to block them off, but folk were moving them out the road to get through instead of following the fucking arrows. Then you get people standing packing their shopping whilst on the phone. There's a fucking queue outside, pack your bags at the car so the next person can get in.

I carefully plan when to go shopping now. I either go at about 17.30 if I'm going to Tesco (too far to walk there and back during working hours, i.e. too high a risk of being found out if there's emails or Teams messages not getting answered) or 11.00 or 15.00 is it's Lidl (just along the road so can just say I'm on lunch if queried as I'd be no longer than 40 minutes).

Weekends are of course a total no go. Even still, I am very careful and make obvious, sometimes exaggerated motions when avoiding folk so that they get the message.

More concerned about Weegies coming to Inverness myself.

P.S. Just tried booking a flight from New York to London tomorrow, piece of pish and quite cheap. WTF?

Wall Street to London might be more accurate perhaps.

Yea, he's now at over 51% approval rating, an increase of 17 points from before he got the virus.

Won't be long before folk are hissing through bare teeth at folk who don't do it. It's a poppy.

I’m going to make “I CLAP, DO YOU?” badges.

Think I’ll sell them door-to-door.

I’ll donate 100%, 25%, 5% to the NHS.

Were you not an elected councillor at one point?  What was your slogan - "Vote for me you fat, stupid moronic p***ks.  f**k the lot of you"

Yeah, and I still got elected.  Sort of proves my point.

You ever stood for elected office?

He was a Labour councillor, it was "Vote for me, I'm a fat, stupid, moronic p***k just like the lot of you"

Didn't realise Ben Fogle was a Raith Rovers fan.

Ben Fogle wrote a book called "The Teatime Islands" which was a travelogue of the remnants of the British Empire.  Places like the Falklands, Tristan da Cunha, St Helena, Ascension and Gibraltar. 

Not as good as the similar book "The Last Pink Bits" by Raith Rovers fan Harry Ritchie.

Simon Winchester also wrote a similar book called "Outposts".  Don't know what team he supports.
