It’s a cluster. So you obviously stayed isolated until you got the results of those tests.When I came back in February, paid for the tests for day 2 and day 10. Kits arrived on day 15.....

Ermm. Of course. And I did the two tests within an hour of each other. Called the Covid help lines several times. No help. Meanwhile when I was isolating, the neighbors were having house parties....It’s a cluster. So you obviously stayed isolated until you got the results of those tests.
Know where you are coming from. If I don’t get my day 8, done on day 10 done befor day 12, not sure how I stand going for my 2nd vaccination.Ermm. Of course.

These pop up companies have nothing to do with being a friend of a Tory MP though...Know where you are coming from. If I don’t get my day 8, done on day 10 done befor day 12, not sure how I stand going for my 2nd vaccination.
I suspect half of these kit providers are pop up companies who just buy, post, collect and then book time in testing centres.
The way Mr Hancock is turning on/off foreign travel he must have shares in testing companies and not travel/ airways. I watched an easy jet flight doing touch and goes at Teeside airport. Obviously re rating pilots as they don’t fly out of there.These pop up companies have nothing to do with being a friend of a Tory MP though...
I didn’t go abroad in 2020, will not this year and probably won’t next year and I like travel. Just wait, tour operators have a history of going bust but not your problem. When things open back up the hotels will still be there and tour operating is a low capital employed industry so lots will pop back up quickly. Then you can go back to sharing a spoon (no hidden meaning in that one) with the guy from Frankfurt who has just inspected his rectum with his leading hand...Just had my holiday cancelled by the tour operator (on the beach - or not as in this case) I feel that unless something is done soon my last holiday abroad in 2019 will be exactly that, my LAST, as there will be no tour operators, airlines, hotels or any staff to book, transport or facilitate when it is no longer necessary to spend c£300 on 3 tests and add an extra 2 weeks onto a two week package holiday.
Meanwhile in sweltering Blighty I have just been asked (very politely) for the FIRST time in travelling 5 days a week into our capital on Public transport (bus, train and tube) to “please put a mask on”
I - equally politely - refused - it’s too hot, there is no ventilation. I have had enough now.
The Do Gooders who want to “maintain table service in pubs and restaurants” can do exactly that - Go to a bloody restaurant where it’s nearly always has been table service - meanwhile I want to go to the pub and stand 6 deep at the bar without the totally unnecessary fumbling for an ill fitting mask so I can take a pi55!

Enjoy the pub, I hate the places...I actually hate buffets more.

Well RSM Maser and Bob, at this rate you’ve Bob Hope of normality anytime soon.
Holiday, normality....
Forget it.
This stupidity called” Covid” is gonna determine your lives for years ahead, unless,
One day everyone will get to a point when they say feck this nonsense.
Because that’s for the 98% exactly what it is.View attachment 86502
Neither do I, cos 169,000,000 are suffering the ongoing nonsense.........Yes, exactly. A mere 3.7 million people dead. Such a silly and nonsensical irrelevance. Don't know why we even noticed.

I wonder why........Indeed it is; those 3.7 million don’t care anymore and most of the 7.67 billion of us that are left want our lives back to normal.
Don’t worry Zep I’m off to bed.It’s not a surprise this has found an outlet somewhere. Let’s hope it doesn’t go the same way as the last one.
