    The pub we mostly visit closed with the first corona wave.
    It was presumed to close anyway, as the previous owner wanted to retire.
    It just closed earlyer ...
    The building got sold and went to a new owner.
    Who made a new pub out of it.
    It is nice, all brand new with a retro look.
    And re-opend last week.
    We were there, didn't want to mis it.
    And there we were sitting on a out door table( last sunshiny day) in our 4 person bubble as prescribed by the goverment rules.
    Next to us a larger bubble started to grow from two to four, then to six to end up in a large table of nearly 10 to 12 people.
    All about my age.
    The last one to join that party table was our (regional!) premier (for the Flemish part of the country).
    Sun was setting, and we left.
    At home we usualy put on the news, and saw that the national premier was declaring the end of the restriction to have only four people in your bubble!
    Then we understood, the reason of the large bubble; they knew!!!!

    But then last night we wanted to have a drink at the same pub, and we weren't allowed in!
    The weather was bad so no a good idea to sit out side, but inside our regional premier was having a drink, with his mates and didn't wanted anyone over hearing them....or watching them.
    The pub owner said it was a corona measure...
    How yes, I forgot to tell that the government rules went back to the bubble of four quiet rapiddly after health workers got mad and said the expantion to a bigger bubble was insain.

    Today should’ve been the last (and newest??) big external UK Fair of 2020....in a field.....sun’s shining, ‘wind’s dropped.....but it paid the price sadly. I’m angry...or is that selfish....I don’t know. But I’m getting tired of all the complaints and finger pointing re who’s doing what wrong (this isn’t about your post Stuka).... The last time we came close to this latest virus was pre-widespread travel (flights especially), pre social media etc etc and, sadly, I don’t know how many Govt’s pulled together a How-to-deal-with-a-global-pandemic (aka Spanish Flu)Procedures Manual...and even if they did how many have revised it over the last 102 years. The fact is that no-one KNOWS what to do for sure....and there’s the Country’s finances to manage....and the need to stop people being killed. We all know the real answer.....to shut everything and everyone down until there’s a cure.....whilst letting them do whatever they want....whilst keeping business operating.....and financing everyone and everything.....but then you need to overlay a large number of they-can’t-tell-me-what-I-can-or-can’t-do and why-not-just-lock-up-old-people types.....or “selfish” as they used to be called pre-woke. And then of course there’s the conspiracy guys who KNOW there’s not a virus and it’s all just Govts trying to destroy their own economies (but that’s not true either....is it?). This is a no-win situation for Govts......this will probably bring about the change of a lot of Govts post-virus just as WC didn’t survive his nation-saving term......and of course there’s no news in documenting what the opposition would have done (and how) at the moment.

    What I do know is that instead of wandering around stalls full of Militaria on a pleasant Sunday morning in a field I’m sat here typing this ****. :-)

    Well, here in the UK we have a SNP (Scottish National Party) MP, Margaret Ferrier has refused to resign from her £81,000 post.

    Why you ask?, well... now beat this.. it really does take the biscuit

    Margaret Ferrier decided to travel from Glasgow to London.. then on to the HOUSE OF COMMONS were she gave a speech.

    A round trip of over 800 miles, before she left, she had Corona Virus symtoms, when she returned to Glasgow?..

    She had tested POSITIVE.

    So, she has left a trail of infection in her wake, on the day she became ill, she visited a gym, shops and a beauty salon!

    Scotland Yard Police and the Transport Police have confirmed they are investigating Margaret Ferrier.

    She literally could have infected hundreds of people, within two Countries, she knew the rules.

    But, Margaret Ferrier has been suspended for 10 days, not sacked

    Returning to Glasgow, she should be self isolating at home for 14 days.. there was no sign of her there yesterday.

    Breaking the rules again.

    There is now a petition, to have her removed from her post! you couldn't make this stuff up.

    So, if there is a virus?? and the elite establishment don't give two bucks for the rules, why should we?

    All the "new" lockdown rules have just been blown out of the water, she should be arrested and imprisoned.

    As a best friend of the SNP Leader Nicola Sturgeon (wee Jimmy Kranky), who can't sack her.

    I'm sure she will survive her post.

    The usual crap will be rolled out, a oversight, misjudgement.

    Translated as "don't question us, we are better than you".

    A absolute national disgrace, Ferrier is 60 years old with Covid 19, but, hey ho, she's part of the establishment!

    Corona Virus? DO AS WE SAY - NOT AS WE DO.

    FACT!
