We knew they were over reacting when they shut down participation sport nationwide because of one cluster driving to a match. Now they are going to put a load of small businesses into bankruptcy. This is not learning to live with the virus.camroc1 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 9:26 pm The NPHET fúckers are now proposing closing down indoor eating in Dublin.
This is fúcking ridiculous - we know there have been very few outbreaks due to restaurants opening up.

I also note that someone from NPHET have leaked this before it got to cabinet.
much as I hate the fact it makes me feel like a grumpy old man, the young millenials/zoomers really do come across as a bunch of entitled simpletons who value feelings and opinions over factsFloppykid wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 6:23 pmYeah, it's amazing how well SF have rehabbed/whitewashed their image with young millenials/zoomers.Hobo Hooker wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 2:59 pmthat second link reads like it was written by an 11yoFloppykid wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 2:41 pm Wtf is this unquietgraves shite the shimmers won't shut up about online?

Here’s an article from the indo about the level 3 restrictions. Over 70’s not advised to cocoon. So the long and short of it is that once again this country is shafting the younger generation in order to avoid upsetting the older generation. Younger people in Ireland, who have largely shouldered the burden of the banking collapse, are getting the full shaft once again. Go have your house parties lads because the government certainly doesn’t give a fudge about you.

Imagine putting older people above your right to a pint.
Doesn’t matter anymore. Sure this lockdown isn’t too bad at home on full pay. He just doesn’t get it. Imagine the old Reaganite mullet reading the shit he’s posting these days. RIP old (good) mullet.
Apparently closing (well restricting them to that effect) restaurants is covered in level 3. So it's not a 3.x if they do it.Leinsterman wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:40 am This could destroy any last bit of confidence in the government. The danger is it could drive voters away from them too.
Devise a plan, stick to it.
Don't start making amendments and tinkering with it before it's even released though. This is simple stuff.
Pubs though. Still closed but can be open in Level 3.CM11 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:42 amApparently closing (well restricting them to that effect) restaurants is covered in level 3.

You're right, 'additional restrictions' is a fudge. Possibly deliberately so.Leinsterman wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:47 amPubs though.

Level 3 says: "Additional restrictions for indoor dining" so if that means takeaway, then just state it. Again, poor comms.
Just bizarre. It's scary to think what they'll do with the economy.EverReady wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:51 am You know it's shambolic decision making when Pearse Doherty is on the telly saying it is great only they should have done it last week. I am starting to wonder if the Shinners are trying to push us off a cliff as they have reckon they have the only mattress
No it isn't, what they are proposing is what is said in Level 4.CM11 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:42 amApparently closing (well restricting them to that effect) restaurants is covered in level 3.

Additional restrictions are allowed in level 3 for indoor dining. It's specific in level 4 but as LM says, it's a fudge in level 3.cfm93 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 10:02 amNo it isn't, what they are proposing is what is said in Level 4.CM11 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 18, 2020 9:42 amApparently closing (well restricting them to that effect) restaurants is covered in level 3.

in fairness to your grandparents Duff.....you're an awful bollix !Duff Paddy wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 11:32 amWhat is this hug your grandparents bollox. My lifetime total hugs received from grandparents? 0. This country has gone so soft.EverReady wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 11:23 amNah we've been pretty good. Parents no hugs though the kids forget sometimes. Don't see them as much. Generally everything is a little bit distant. My 4 year old popped into the shops with the missus the other day to get milk and they realised she hadn't been in the shops since March.CM11 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 11:16 am Plenty of stupid people ignoring the positive test or doing what you mentioned earlier (I'm staying home! With 20 of my closest friends.....).
I suppose that's the other side of the coin, idiots are going to idiot and the rest of us get punished. That said, we're probably all guilty of not keeping a bit of distance between ourselves and close family and friends.
starting to think the same based on my experience of about 3 different plumbers over the last 5 years ; not helped by currently getting a boiler replaced and lad from Swyft listed off another 3 big things that need to be done to effectively double their original quote.....including taking out a bath tub ! when he was all done I showed him the Electric Ireland quote that didn't have half the shite he was telling me I need to doRumham wrote: ↑Thu Sep 17, 2020 2:51 pmVery tough work though.
