Missus is still rough as fuck, comes in waves, its a weird thing. I developed symptoms yesterday, never felt tiredness like this. Walking upstairs and I'm knackered and out of breath. Test sent off today.
The things a bastard.
Jesus, you're pretty young as well no, DS.
Hope you kick the fucker soon mate.
Someone give a compilation of his posts in the food thread.
I hadn't seen DS post on here or on Twitter for ages and began to worry and then one day he tweeted for the first time in 3 months just with this:
And I knew everything was okay.
That salt and pepper box was next level tbf
That avatar looks like Mark Bridger's fake passport.

The answer within the article is of course 'No', but that hasn't stopped them from slapping another scary headline front and centre.
Some government adviser's comments on Radio 4 have got the Guardian running with "calls for tighter lockdown restrictions in UK"
Tighter than this? I genuinely don't think they could enforce anything much tighter than this, they don't have the manpower.
I was surprised to see queues around the corner for Costa Coffee in Chertsey this week (mainly because people in Chertsey usually drink toad's blood and stagnant rain water) but I somehow doubt 2m distanced outdoor queues are hotbeds of transmission anyway.
These coffeshops are absolutely loving this 12 months. So much so they may just be able to overlook the tragic loss of those highly respectable people who go there for 6 hours to show off their Apple merch and drink 1 coffee.
She's going to ban takeaways.
I'm going to be aggressively pushing for curry tonight.
They can't enforce this now. It's only sort of working through our consent, which is of course being given by a lot of people through fear.
Those that aren't scared or don't feel they have a moral obligation to follow rules are just cracking on, which is why we have so many cases and deaths.
That BBC article sort of hints at more 45-64 year olds being admitted and winding up on ventilators. But age without context is nothing. Especially when the graph above it (and now above me, Yev) barely hints at change. And if admissions and infections are up, the sheer volume will make it appear younger demographics are being affected.
I'm not wearing a mask outside.
I wear it outside if I have had it on inside and can’t wash and sanitise my hands to take it off.
Curve flattened.
They shouldn't have bothered with Philip, to be fair. I don't think it's necessary. I'm 98% sure he's un-killable at this point.
And it's dangerous, because for some it will add plausibility to the Conspiracy nuts claims.

And the obvious problems with crowding in the midst of a virus that's all about a chinwag.
Four fuck's ache, lads.
The BBC, running short of material seemingly, have batched up all of today's gloom in one tidy soundbite package, brought to you here (front and centre of course).

Meanwhile, the news that "every adult will be offered a vaccine by autumn", only makes it to the top of the live page.
I like this "act like you've got it" stuff. We're all phoning in sick tomorrow, yeah?
Obviously I wasn't on here for a lot of the last year, and it's really rubbish to hear that DS and partner have covid (hope you both get through it!).
Did anyone else here catch it that we know of?
Taz / Don has no sense of taste in 2 ways now.
There's a few others too.
Mokkers, are you back in the land of taste yet?
Alright Ital.
Taz has had it and he still won't be smelling or tasting any 'gash' when the clubs open by the sounds of it.
Cord reckoned he did over Christmas (no smell / taste, fatigue, etc.), insofar as him posting once a year and occasionally gaming with TTH counts him as a member any more.
