The General Covid19 Thread

I’d pay money to see the look on any waiter’s face when Smalls gives them his dietary instructions.

I’d much rather see the chef’s face when the waiter gives him the order.

Hursty haha I was in captain caveman mode after a few beers admittedly … great night out otherwise.. but seeing this kind of stuff does set me off - bars have been covid hot spots in countries where tracing programmes have been in place and they are clearly going to be here too … anyway, in future think I’m going to stay away from indoor bars without rigorous safety measures - going to start getting very dangerous as we move into autumn/winter

Jules, Probably best you knock the bars on the head to be honest.

People aren’t going to take any notice of distancing when they’re drunk and the whole thing’s impossible to police, why not have a few people round for beers in the garden, or do Zoom beers?

Millsy

Just drink heavily alone at home and finish the night with a cry wank. Masked obv.

Don’t forget the gloves. Don’t want none of that cross contamination shit.

Jules72

Lol… there are bars and pubs that observe distancing.. same for restaurants… but yeah for now will be drinks outside for me.

bosstrabs

Jules72 I won’t be doing busy indoor places, even with social distancing measures.

And in the winter, avoid like the (literal) plague any space that has a knackered looking air con unit blowing out hot air, those things are lethal.

Jules72

bosstrabs can understand that… thing is I live alone so I need some sort of social outlet… anyway v busy on the dating apps sorting out some winter company 😊

Heading to Clapham Common later for a right old jolly up.

Cheers.

Smallman1 Like Jules, he’s sound. Although it’s not a legal requirement to track and trace, they should, but by not doing it, they won’t be shutdown if there’s an outbreak.

Jules72

Along_the_Wire ah ok I didn’t realise it’s not a legal requirement… well that’s just idiotic then - why would a bar even bother implementing it? Another failure of this government

bosstrabs

Wonder what Smalls makes of the new(ish) Japanese fad, cheese tea?

Smallman1

That would kill me.

S to the werve big time.

That’s so cringey. 😬

Millsy

Mon dieu!

Smallman1

What a terrific bunch.

Smallman1

Do like “all gas no brakes” though.

How I roll.

Anyone buying or selling in the housing market right now? I’m looking to buy and, don’t ask me how, there’s a desperate scramble to find places at mom…. had a bid rejected for a place 10% above where it sold in 2015 (previous peak)!

Smallman1

Jules72 Anyone buying or selling in the housing market right now?

I’m not Jules, hope that helps.

Yup, right in the middle of buying and selling. Previously been fine with the process, but this time it has been particularly stressful.

Fucked if I’m ever doing this again. The system we have is a joke.
