Plus, she's showing cleavage....big fucken deal and she's probably a right munter when you strip away the make-up, not that she's owt to look at with make-up on...and lastly, she's probably got the IQ of an earthworm..so all in all, fuck all.

AlanShimmin Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 It would be interesting to hear from the proponents of us adopting the Jersey approach to Covid. They've gone really quiet in recent days. https://jerseyeveningpost.com/news/2020/12/17/100-new-covid-cases-recorded-in-one-day/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed he had that much. The other, "Speaking at her home in Irvine last night, McLaughlan's mother Allison told the Daily Record: 'I didn't even know about the jet ski. I just don't know why he did it – he could have killed himself.' Miss McLaughlan added: 'He'll be missing his kids over Christmas.'" 30l fuel tank on that model of Sea-Doo I think and a claimed consumption of 7.34l/hr - so the '10 minutes of fuel left' stacks up.

They've gone really quiet in recent days. https://jerseyeveningpost.com/news/2020/12/17/100-new-covid-cases-recorded-in-one-day/ I was (am) a proponent of a Jersey ‘styled’ model. They clearly have made huge mistakes regarding their testing regime but more so an effective track & trace model. What has puzzled me throughout this entire pandemic is that the statistics clearly indicate you really are not at risk under the age of 75 (that is developing life threatening symptoms). There are anomalies of course, as there are with a multitude of other viruses / illnesses. Why then were the high risk groups not asked to fully shield and isolate rather than the entire tax paying working population? Testing was developed quickly, PPE available. Care homes could have been bubbles. I still don’t buy the NHS can’t cope. Anyway ... I’ve felt like this from the outset - I won’t be changed. Just gotta roll with the fear and hardships that are coming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might not have anything to do with it but then again, if some of the story is true it could be the guy, the girl and maybe an occupant of the house (perhaps a child?) if he was staying with her. If she really was unaware he hadn't isolated, that could be her family having to isolate over Christmas now. I wonder if there is any connection with the "Jet Ski Man", and with the body found on the beach in Ramsey earlier in the week ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightBulb Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 On 12/15/2020 at 9:49 AM, Roger Mexico said: Actually they did say in the news release: Three new cases of COVID-19 have been detected in the Isle of Man. All three individuals were already self-isolating having travelled to the Island. Their period of isolation has now been extended by a further 14 days. Contact tracing has been completed. The number of active cases on the Island is four. So these cases look to be unconnected with the roofer on the jet ski. Roofer, looking for work, have Jet Ski, will travel, distance no object. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetski chappy must've entered the island after leaving, otherwise, he'd not be doing his 4 weeks at her majesty's pleasure. But the odds of it being on a jetski in the Irish Sea in winter? They've got to be slim. You have to wonder if it's being taken at face value for other reasons. The drugs supply over here must be drying up now with all the postal seizures and lack of people coming to and fro. Lots of money to be made by finding other ways in. Maybe he took a similar route. I think there used to be, in times gone past, a lot of smmugler`s cave on the island, were they used to land illicit goods, Port Grenaugh, i think was one, i am not sure of how many others there are, were you could sneak in and out without being noticed, and also ( mates hiding you in the sleeper cab / bunk on a removal truck on the Ben ) which is not unusual, or certainly wasen`t in my day.

You could say the same about traveling to the Moon ? 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
