    Yea but if he reeled off it all, who the chuff is going to challenge it.

    It would be a


    Eeerrmmmm. Ok, please sit down.

    They would be so thrown out and scared of any discrimination, they would likely say, **** it pal, sit wherever you want

    I second your sentiments JC. Sincerely hope that your wife can rally so you can be re-united at home Shenk.
    Whilst it's great that you can share a pint with friends, I can't imagine what it must be like not being with your
    lady every day. Good luck for the future pal.

    As others have said I sincerely hope firstly your wife is ok, secondly that you get reunited soon and finally if you need someone to have a chat with just drop us a line (Private Mail or something).

    About the same as UK really. Similar stage of lockdown. Restaurants and pubs closed etc.
    Fingers crossed for some sort of vaccine asap.

    My 79 year old Dad with IPF and heart disease can go drink in the pub all day but my brother with his newborn son can't visit his house.

    Can’t visit other people’s houses outside your local area either. We’ve had it for months in Manchester.

    Have they shut the ‘wet’ pubs down again? We were in the North in September and the Republic was just about to reopen them.

    The rules are pretty baffling mate. Rather than rules, we should be applying common sense, unfortunately that's a commodity in short supply....

    Hi mate. Sorry to hear of your plight. Heard some terrible stories on radio 4 this morning of people with family in care homes.

    I think what you are doing is fine, as far as I can see. I guess it's down to the landlord of the pub to interpret things as they see it.

    My wife's Dad has Parkinson's and lives on his own. We have phoned Age UK this morning
    and are now fully au fait with the " exceptions" under the Tier 2 regulations. My wife's brother
    is the principal carer, but so long as she's not at her Dads when he is, she can support her
    Dad in his home because he is classed as vulnerable and because of his medical condition
    and age, he could pose a risk to his own health and well being.
