TIL these face masks go behind your ears, essentially pushing your ears forward/out a bit. This is something I could definitely do without.
If it gets to a point where I have to wear a mask to leave my house, I’m gonna declare myself agoraphobic.

Book us a couple of tickets.

Fake flights in Taiwan. Bit weird.
Is it me or is this all proper wankery? 36 local authorities is 10.4% of the English total (so I presume infections decreasing in 89.6% of local authorities) and the numbers mentioned are absolutely tiny. H&F has less than 200,000 population so we're talking about an extra 10/11 people having Covid there in a week, unless my maths has completely failed me.The number of COVID-19 cases has gone up in 36 local authority areas in England.
Knowsley, Bolton, and Hammersmith and Fulham experienced the biggest increases in the rate per 100,000 people.
In Knowsley, Merseyside, the rate of infection has gone up from 6 people per 100,000 to 20/100,000.
In Bolton, which is part of Greater Manchester, the rate has increased from 16/100,000 to 23 and in Hammersmith and Fulham, west London, the rate has changed from 6/100,000 to 12.
In all but one of the 36 authority areas, the rate has increased by less than 10/100,000.
It's bollocks like I said yesterday. Southend are in the top 20 and there's only about 30 confirmed cases here. Even Leicesters numbers aren't that bad.
Going to Alton Towers next week as we cannot cancel it due to the park reopening on Saturday. To cancel booking I need to pay £100. Fuckers.
All park restaurants are take away only and you have to wear a mask. Not sure how a 1 year old and 4 year are going to keep a mask on. It's going to be terrible.
Seeing my folks tomorrow because they've fucked up their tablet and I can't fix things I can't see. Plus it would be nice to see them for the first time in 4 months.
Do we still not know how transmissible it is among kids? I know this shit isn't easy, but please don't tell me somewhere with a dodgy human rights record hasn't deliberately infected kids with it and chucked them in a cage with random adults for shits and giggles?
10,000 new cases a day in Florida. Up from 5,000 last Thursday, 3,000 the Thursday before, and 1,500 the Thursday before that.
Paging @bruhnaldo.
EDIT: He's a fairly prolific Twitter user, and hasn't tweeted since the 25th of June. You alright, Bruh?
Has he been around here in a while?
Shocker:

I don't understand that megasurge at all. No other country in the world has had such a thing. Do they have some unique level of blasé-ness that us scummy socialist Europeans can only dream of accessing?
Thanks, wasn't aware of that. Regardless, looks like we are going to cancel and suffer the £100 cancellation fee. Wife is 100% against going. I'm 80/20 against going.
I've been on site in London twice this week. It's the first time using the train and underground. Was OK, it's quite novel using the underground without the usual hoards of people. But...summer in London is usually optimum perve time. Slim pickings this year sadly.
Still the odd muppet not wearing a face mask on the tube. But on the flip side, saw a lady in a burka and realised she's got a 2 in 1 situation going on there.
It's actually 'under 2's'

I'd probably go but just be prepared for alot of standing around awkwardly whilst the bolshy kid running the ride has to wipe everything down for the 8000th time of the day.
Table booked at my local for three hours on Saturday neet.
I’m the same Monday afternoon, only three hours. Surely it’s better to have less folk in, no? Rather than having 25 different folk every 3 hours or whatever it is.
Everything I've read on the subject (which is a fuckton as I make an attempt to re-open a cricket club bar) suggests they think being in there for a long time and getting pissed is the main threat to social distancing and therefore transmission.
Pretty hilarious, mind you, that we are allowed to serve booze in our bar on Saturday but we're not allowed to play cricket.
They've got a lot of catching up to do, to be fair. If they've got the space to take chances, they will.
The cricket club at the top of my street are doing stuff in nets and that, so they're either doing what they want or just having dads bowl to their kids.
BBC News just interviewed Jimmy's dad with a piece on it and they can practice in nets (as presumably there's no fielding). Michael Vaughan was effing and blinding at the authorities.
The Cricket thing just makes no sense at all. I don't even like Cricket and it's pissing me off. It's possibly the most Socialy Distanced sport there is, but the ball is a 'Natural Vector'? OK, so is a can of beans in Tesco, a coat hanger in Next, the toilet handle in the local pub and absolutely everything about a cunting theme park.
BoJo must hate Cricket. There's no other explanation.
It is a weird one. Super League is back in a month, so presumably it's open season then.
The running belief within the sport (as good as confirmed) is that everything was signed off and ready to go last Tuesday, and then some MP asked Boris about it in Parliament and he blathered some absolute mess of an answer he'd made up on the spot (the infamous 'natural vector of disease') which put everything in the bin because you can't embarrass the Prime Minister by contradicting him.
What part of VECTOR don't you understand?
Again, just glove the players up and cellophane the ball nice and tight. But then I guess that's not cricket.
Pretty damning.
They didn't just do nothing about it, they actively set about spreading it. There's whoppers all over Twitter claiming their 180th amendment right to not wear a mask during a pandemic and half of them don't even believe there is a pandemic.
5G spreads it faster.
Those are very specifically priced fines.
I'm avoiding the pubs like the plague at the moment. It'll be full of novelty wankers who only drink on NYE, ordering Guinness last and buying drinks one at a time instead of getting rounds and/or double parking.
Us lot at work have talked about it and we're going to go at the end of the month when the novelty should have died down.
At this point drinking in a garden with the BBQ going and the football on TV is far more enjoyable experience than prebooking the local pub for a 3 hour slot.
I think I'll give it a miss for a while.
The pubs here aren’t pubs at all at the minute. Table service
