    It's also 70% hideous. That was not an enjoyable experience.

    You didn't administer it yourself, did you?

    Sturgeon saying Scots should refrain from their 'annual ritual' of a trip to Blackpool really captures the sort of uneducated poverty stricken trash I'm sacrificing 12-18 months of my youth for.

    70% is absurd if that's the reliability. I was told I could stop self isolating after my test, despite the fact I still had symptoms.

    If I do turn out to have it, I will probably have infected others.

    I read 'my youth' as someone he has groomed. Takeaways actually being busy will have disrupted that racket.

    I also had to self-administer my test.

    Swabbing my throat was horrific, up the nose was uncomfortable but not too bad.

    The Government are listening lads.
    It's amazing how quickly an idea picks up traction once you apply one of those wanky, buzz-word terms to it ("circuit break") that politicians love to come up with.

    "Yeah.....we should definitely "circuit break". That sounds like it will sort it!"

    I think if you pitched it as "we reckon that we just, you know, sort of half lock down again for a couple of weeks and see what happens" nobody would give a fuck about the idea.

    The north of England is about to get massive spikes from the dirty Glaswegians travelling south to watch the OF match in a pub. Hopefully they all end up in the same area and Manchester in 2008 is recreated.

    Well it was enough to make me retch when I deep throated the thing, so I hope so anyway.

    If we're all having to wear masks to keep each other safe, then why can't the test be as simple as coughing into a bag for them to swab? Fucking sadists.

    I don't know how they work it out, but our lab reckons our tests have been much better than initially thought. Sensitivity 95% or something.

    The official guidance is to do a superficial swab of each tonsil and each nostril with the same swab. Not to do the deep nasopharyngeal swabs we do for flu etc. We are all very suspicious of this.

    The tests are indeed horrific. I can't do my tonsils without gagging and retching like a motherfucker, which makes it more difficult. Especially as it says the test is void if you touch any other parts of your mouth/tongue.

    The nose isn't as bad, but it still makes my eyes water.

    Suspicious as in we wonder if they are asking us to do dodgy swabs that give negative results to make things look less bad than they are. Most of the nurses are doing the old school tickle your brain ones regardless.

    You're indoors, sweating over equipment other people will use and breathing heavily. How can they argue it's safe?

    It gets dark often before a lot of people have their evenings free. And even if you do tool up with a head torch like some freakshow, I'm not sure women can be as brave when the likes of me are loitering about.

    Seven armed police turned up and gave him a £1000 fine, said they'd be back In 3 hours and if the gym is still open it would be a £2000 fine and they'd be checking back every three hours and the fine doubling if they continue to stay open.

    "The people in them are healthy"

    What difference does that make? They can still spread it.

    This is all seeming a bit like the time you didn't understand how antibiotics work when you thought antibiotic resistance wouldn't affect you because you never take them.

    They're significantly less likely to die of it, so let the people train.
