    Should I send you a picture of the beach bar I’ll be in watching the final on Sunday? That’s not feeling ‘impossible’ from where I’m sat, with the Mrs ironing my holiday shirts :)

    I left the country for work 3 weeks ago. It was incredibly straightforward not impossible.

    So what happened to the North Korean regime we were going to be living under for evermore?
    Still, there's always Qanon, 5G conspiracies, chips embedded in the vaccines to cling onto instead I suppose.

    So the mates I have on holiday now; should I tell them they should be working instead of enjoying themselves?

    Is this you who was banging on about businesses going under now saying it's not fair that business should have been prioritised?
    You really should take yourself at your word and shut up on here and go and do all the things you were crying about not being able to do. Maybe you could go to the pub for a pint...but wait that's leisure so you couldn't...except you could.

    I’m really torn with this one. I can’t wait for the restrictions to end, to get to Oakwell, see a band, go to a festival.

    But a vast majority of the people who want the restrictions to end just come across as absolute morons.

    It goes hand in hand doesnt it

    Hospitality and tourism relies on people having fun.

    And that sector has of course being decimated

    Its a shame only a select few can afford 10 days house arrest and all the other rubbish

    You literally just said they were favouring work. Stop dissembling and go out and run around without your mask.

    You know you lose all semblance of empathy as soon as you start using language like ‘house arrest’ and ‘muzzles’.

    I’m guessing you’re so deep into this that you’ll take no notice whatsoever, but I thought I’d try anyway :)
