jagfox Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Byres Road had quite a few folk waiting to get into the Santander bank (open every other day at the moment), a few folk queuing at the butcher and fishmonger. Waitrose had folk queued down the block and halfway up the street around the corner. Then again there are limited numbers allowed in these places. Did seem busier overall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been fairly quiet the last few days. I definitely think there are more people out on Fridays for some reason 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Stubbs Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) UK key worker testing site doon. There seems to be a common turn of events with announcements coming from England. The UK Gov wildly over-promise on something, frothing Unionists like Mintermind get very excited about them beating Scotland to the punch and then the original promise is totally bungled or never materialises.

Michael W Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The furlough portal was a rare government IT achievement in that it actually held its ground and did what it needed to. Oddly reassuring to see that we have reverted to the mean in this department again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Doonhamer Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 It seems like a strange time to get upset about millennials. Most of us have already had two major financial crashes during the formative years of our careers. Historically speaking, It could be much worse. We're not being slaughtered en masse in a ditch somewhere but realising the basic ambitions of most generations reaching their 20s/30s hasn't exactly been a picnic. I appreciate that buying houses for £14 and making a quick buck off every public asset Britain had to offer has built a sense of resilience in the boomers that we couldn't hope to understand. Plus they didn't have Strongbow Dark Fruit growing up, so well done on being hard.This boomer would like to say very well put sir.

Bairnardo Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Some of my favourite content is boomers slating young folk for having it different from them, blissfully unaware that 16 year olds werent the ones who changed everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standing at asda for two hours when theres a huge spar or aldi five mins away empty. Fuckwits Aldi is class. Mental that so many folk still look down on it. Likewise Lidl (especially its immense bakery). 1 hour ago, EdinburghPar1975 said: Very surprised that so many folks seem to be out and about. I'm in Duddingston/ Portobello and other than the usual shops, the streets and roads seem very quiet. Although when I read about the madness at Five Guys when it re-opened a take-away service in Fountainbridge I really wonder about what goes on in folks heads. Is it really that important to get a burger? If it is, fair enough - but at least try and keep some sort of distancing. All that's going to happen is there will be a tightening of the restrictions on who can do take away... Folk are beyond stupid. Five Guys is very expensive. Oh, and there's a global pandemic. 1 hour ago, Jacksgranda said: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-52384622 Imagine having no water.

DiegoDiego Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 What's the deal with Bali? Only two deaths yet they had five weekly flights directly from Wuhan up until February. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese a month.The obvious answer is under-reporting but crematoria are saying their business has shown no significant increase. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the absence of any football to bet on, I'll give you even money that deaths from the Disinfectant Infection hit double figures by the end of the month. More chance of that than CockHand's testing target, at least. I suppose we've all noticed that every. fucking. statement. from these cúnts about testing contains the word "capacity", ever since it was pointed out how far behind the curve they actually are? "Health Secretary announces testing station in his back garden with capacity for 40k tests a day" - "see? told you we'd do it!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise Lidl (especially its immense bakery). Was in Aldi last Friday and it was an absolute nightmare compared to Asda or Morrisons in terms of social distancing and the like. No real effort to control how many people were in the shop, staff coming right across next to you to stack shelves, loads of big stock trolleys blocking aisles. I have to admit I don't really like it at the best of times because it feels like you're in some sort of warehouse or cash and carry, and I generally can't get everything I need as easily as I can from the "traditional" supermarkets, but that put me off going anywhere near it for the next few months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The people that deserve a slap out of this the most are millenials. Sick of hearing young c***s moaning because they can't get to the pub for dark fruits and jagerbombs, or they can't get out for a "cheeky nandos" or a "maccy dees". We all have to deal with the the issue of not getting out to do the things we like for a good while, but we just have to suck it up and get on with it. Aye I'm missing going for a Friday pint, but I can still get beers at the shop. f**k. Me. If anyone had ever made a gif of Kez Dugdale's "rousing" speech on Question Time which was met with a hugely awkward silence, then this post would be ideal for it. Please tell me you just copied this from some gammon on Facebook. Atrocious stuff. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thereisalight.. Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Heard from my mate that hairdressers/barbers could potentially be shut for 6 months. His wife owns one so is worried in case this is true. How will that work for the staff she employs if the furlough scene is only in place until June? Same with pubs and their staff. Will it be extended or will they just have to go onto Universal Credit? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
