If anyone else is so bored they’re looking up pics of Olive from On The Buses in the nip, just know that it does pass.

There is fucking no chance of foreign travel this year. Very possibly not next year either. There probably won't be pubs open this year even. Restaurants, maybe, but limited capacity and horrendously expensive. When travel is released in this country, i expect demand to outstrip supply and possibly price gouging as well.  I know J69 thinks this is pessimistic, but its just reality. Rebooking holidays abroad  for later this year was just daft.

 

What's annoying me is I am shortly due to pay the balance on an August holiday i know won't happen. The deposit is a grand so I'll have to cough up and hope the refund is honoured. Should be okay as it is TUI. But the same dates for this holiday next year have more than doubled so out of my price range. Depressing. 

 

Have you got insurance? I would be concerned about TUI going under with my cash if I was you.

I have an annual travel insurance policy attached to my bank account. But isn't a package holiday ATOL protected? Ultimately who guarantees that?

 

Still, I don't see why I should pay for a holiday I'm not getting like, makes me a nervous because its thousands. Or write off a hefty deposit.

I’d be worried about the insurance companies going under in a lot of cases too

There are some unimaginably stupid people around. 
 

Coronavirus: Twitter bans incitement to attack 5G towers https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-52395158

[Alex 35079]

“Twitter said it would not remove 5G and coronavirus misinformation, but would remove direct incitement to action.”

Why am I not surprised? 

[wykikitoon 20129]

Someone posted on my Insta.  Apparently theres a group of FB saying that the lockdown is part of a test as Bozo and Trump are going to attack China and this is a test to see if the public can stay at home

[Monkeys Fist 42428]

Do they explain why we’d need to stay home in the event of us attacking China?

Intetesting:

Also I can see why we need testing especially along side tracing and isolation but as it's been unveiled I have doubts. 

 

If I woke up tomorrow feeling dodgy with a cough I'd probably isolate until I felt better and certainly wouldn't think of driving to Stansted where a testing centre is mooted. 

 

Similarly as I'm feeling okay I wouldn't want a test anyway unless I suspected I was asymptomatic which is a stretch. 

 

Now I can see the appeal of an antibody test but the antigen one still seems a puzzle to me. 

 

Any thoughts?

If you watch the whole thing, she admits she wouldn't because "she has family" to be with. Like all the croupiers, cleaners, restaurant staff etc. don't have families? How the fuck anyone can want us to move closer to the US model is beyond me. A fair proportion of these people are fucking sociopaths. 

Good point, but you have to take into account that I rely on other people watching this shit for me.  

[wykikitoon 20129]

Fuck me. B&Q have opened stores. The government have fuck all control. They don't need an exit strategy as all the big businesses will do it for em when they fucking want.

Some comic relief dog shit on TV last night with cunts like Lloyd webber on and Gary Barlow. Both tax avoiding cunts asking for donations. Get to fuck.

I tell you what things are getting busy outside. More people out. Them tory cunts need to get a hold of this. People have given up on their daily charade.
