Be outside the headmasters office tomorrow for Juan. Hope the patient recovers from whatever is up with them. Howard was probably thinking " One What a son of a bitch" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But am I right that Howard Quayle (fbotp) Push to have the press gagged from asking them there pesky questions at the press briefings. Been kicked out and will still be the norm. And public question and answer run as a stand alone . (fbotp) ? Can anyone translate for me? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a year in, isn't about time they did like the USD and gave everyone over the age of 16 or 18 a £1,000 cheque? Don't go into work if you have a sniffle or a headache? Might fly in the public sector but in private sector. Good luck with that. Most people are struggling to make ends meet and will be paying for this for many years. Meanwhile in the ivory towers, salary rolls in, pensions accumulate business as usual. Probably a bit miffed they can't getaway for fun in the sun yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe at the start of all this it implied that the Government had a handle on things and the cases were under control, but that control has been lost now. A case is a case. It would be more useful if we were told, even generally, where and how people are picking up the virus. I get the feeling they haven't a clue, but they should have by now. (Yeah, and I know I keep banging on about it). At the moment, it is the Government's key metric in justifying the continuance of this lockdown. For that reason, most of us want to hear it.

Apple Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/work-to-set-up-free-mental-health-phoneline-ongoing/ Oh No, not Manx Telecom. Can't see that helping a lot. Who can we contact when the line goes down in the middle of a call. Where will be the confidentiality. Will it be anonymous? You would think they would do it for free anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 34 minutes ago, Out of the blue said: The Business 360 question regarding if Comin had considered aligning our exit plan to the UK's appeared to catch HQ out, he stumbled and bumbled, but spluttered out something along the lines that vaccination of the over 50's and above may not be enough to protect our NHS, so may require all adults to be vaccinated before our borders are opened up. If I heard him correctly, this does seem to be another shifting of the goal posts, although it would explain why we seen to be the only ones with an Autumn opening up date. Yes waffled a lot said he’d been speaking to Guernsey who say July & we’re August he said, He then quickly passed it over to Ashford!! Guernsey are planning to be fully open 1st July with Jersey sometime June, Comin have been told to return with a simple, clear plan for Tynwald sitting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Buggane Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Bubbles, Reminds me of a great saying from Ozzy Osbourne. He was commenting on a video he was shooting (not sure of the track) "BUBBLES. Sharon I'm suppose to be the prince of fucking darkness and they give me BUBBLES" (fbotp) you just know its not going to be complementary ?
