Assuming just England? Not heard anything about this.

Reading through this thread, the restrictions in Scotland are easing to a level that Australia was only in for two weeks at the beginning, we're broadly back to normal here except international and interstate travel. Feel sorry for you guys, must be a nightmare. Youre rubbing salt into the wound no...

Did she say anything about pubs and restaurants? Can’t find anything. Just drove through Morningside and a couple of bar/restaurants are all set up outside with a reception area etc She shat herself. Hasn't had enough time over the last few months to discuss opening up neer gardens. So much for thi...

Construction started again at the beginning of the week. Not sure when its likely to be finished though.

OptimisticJock

Seems quite sensible I suppose. Couple of 'warm up' games before the semi's.

Thanks

All the best to him.

However I agree that more regular testing of health and social care workers would be a priority area as they appear to be the main group who are returning positive tests. Mass testing of the population given the numbers of tests available wouldn't probably do an awful lot of good for where we are i...

I'm not convinced by that test and trace thing yet, possibly more because it doesn't effect me in the slightest. What annoys me about sturgeon (ok one of the many things) is her shite chaff about having the ability to bring phases forward and ease restrictions earlier than planned. We all know she d...

You have a few days off Peter Sutcliffe?

OptimisticJock

People aren't abiding by the rules anyway. I've got another set of nights coming where I'm fully expecting to spend too much time picking up drunks, much like a normal set of nights. Think I concur on that, though easier for you to assess from your vantage point. Crossing fingers we don't have a we...

Is anyone watching that "War Next Door" currently on BBC Scotland? Worth watching?

Aye you're right, he very respectfully pissed an inch away. Away and argue with someone else.

Tourism industry to open on July 15th will be interesting. Do we know what it covers yet? Hotels, pubs, restaurants, campsites? Would love to get away for a few days camping with the kids but not sure how they would work toilets and shower blocks. The last easing seemed a little haphazard but was a...

And there's still a lot of doubt about herd immunity as a workable thing no? They don't know how many people are immune or are carrying sufficient antibodies to test that particular theory. There is yes but the alternative is that it's here to stay and people are reinfected year after year. If that...

Are there stats for the amount of immigrants working in the NHS up here? Its difficult to tell as we haven't routinely collected that data across the whole workforce. Also social care sector info is different to NHS data, etc. Many use the Colleges info about where folk attained their primary profe...

Nurses aren't paid well because we vote for political parties that won't pay them more. If we want nurses to be paid better we need to start voting for parties that will pay them more.

:roll: There's plenty of real racism to worry about, we don't have to search for it in every little mistake and slip up. And just FYI I highly doubt the mistake was made by the author of the article. It was probably made by some 16-year-work-experience intern who's never watched a game of rugby in ...

There will be a lot of revisionism around how people thought we should have locked down earlier. People were dying in their thousands and we were still picking cvnts up pished from house parties. There's no chance the UK would have been able to handle locking down earlier than we did. The advice wa...

According to the official police report, this guy "tripped and fell" He's in a serious but stable condition. Not gonna lie, I thought I had just watched a man die. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSBZGv5wzK4 The chilling thing is that they just kept walking. One cop started to bend over to check on...

They're from the Household Cavalry.

Are people really using the fact that cops have disarmed and detained people in a violent situation to ascertain how much of a threat they are?

Been the same here. Beach completely trashed with litter everywhere everyday since Friday (bar today). The week before lockdown I had a 'patient' from another city completely steaming with the entire family at a house party where there was at least 3 neighbours involved. Its not new, its just becomi...
