Morning All :D
Has rained, isn't right now. :)
All curbs revoked from next Monday, but not really :mad: Strong advice yadda, yadda, yadda. :rolleyes:
Professors Doom & Gloom were giving it large weren't they? :oops:
Hey-Ho, I shall not be bothering with a mask, my choice.
Have a great day everyone. :D
 
and thats it.. the unwashed majority.. whatever you call em.. do what they want, when they want, laws dont apply yet they're the first to cry when it all goes wrong
While it has been right & proper for everyone to play their part in reducing the ability of this virus to spread there does come a moment when (with over 52% of the population having been vaccinated) we have to say enough is enough.
If there is a section of the community that is still at extreme risk then the authorities should be focusing their attention on them and let the rest of us resume our lives with our fundamental freedoms restored (IMHO).
 
Rained all day yessdi, today is very cloudy still but a bit of sunshine has just appeared.
Grass/weeds too wet to cut though.
Wevvaman says it'll rain for the rest of the day and all day tomoz.
What a feckin pain!
So much to do out there!
So Wifey will soon be on her Zoom meet with her quilting mates and I suppose I'll be on deep cleaning duties on what still needs it.
Notice parts of Spain and all of Greece bringing back controls just as England throws everything out!
In France you will no longer be able to do a whole lot of stuff unless you can prove you have been tested recently or vaccinated, which is meaning loads now, finally applying to get the jab!

Typically often the only way to persuade stroppy Frogs to do anything. hit them where it hurts, in their personal life!

Indeed and some say it should have been like that from the start. Protect the vulnerable and let the rest deal with things. No matter how it was dealt with, it is something we all will have to live with going forwards.
Personally I have no thoughts either way. Nothing that has happened in the last 18 months, or indeed the last 55 years of my life will have any impact on the greater scheme of things!

Exactly! Our old friend Influenza has claimed thousands most years and no-one batted an eyelid and we did not shut down the economy or remove peoples fundamental rights and freedoms. Everyone accepts that sadly "some" will indeed succumb to it. This is another virus with apparently variant-strains just like the flu. Our yearly flu-jabs are often misdirected against the wrong strain or just ineffective. Yes, Covid-19 CAN kill but it isn't an automatic death-sentence it is primarily those with co-morbidities or profound underlying health issues involving their respiratory system that are truly "at--risk" the rest of us will shrug it off after few bad days and carry on. I don't want anyone to die and I am not seeking to trivialise it, but there needs to be a sense of proportion. Either, the vaccine is effective and we can all rest easy, OR they are lying to us and the vaccine is just a placebo. They can't have it both ways I feel.

agree to a point.. but.. (we're mostly sure its man made).. its unprecedented.. designed around research to find the most transmissible virus to cause the most deadly outcomes.. its not just regular flu or some other corona virus found in the wild
