My hair was getting too long so I put a no2 blade on my clippers and sorted it out. It hasn’t been this short since primary school and the mrs has gone mental :emoji_joy:

Hhahahahha me too!!!!!! my mrs had to tidy the back up for me, it feels like a new tennis ball or velcro.

Haha, yeah I think there’s still a couple of no.3/4 patches near my neck and ears. Nonetheless still my favourite memory of this period!

I am of that age where while not bald or anything, it’s not quite as ‘volumous’ on top as it is at the back and sides- wife has clippers ready and if this goes tits up I’ll be self isolating for a few weeks no matter what the government says

I normally have mine No2 cut every 3 weeks by the hairdresser, or else it's bloody irritating

My mates daughter is a nurse up the hospital he’s just sent this onto our group chat


Please don’t go out, i’ve never experienced anything like my shift last night, I feel like i’ve gone home from a war zone, my friend had quit half way through the night. Critical care is full to the brim of 30-40 year olds. They are sending 5-6 bodies to the mortuary each shift.
A few of my friends have been redeployed to critical care and they said all they have been doing is cleaning bodies with the desensitiser stuff and putting them on body bags.
I didn’t realise how serious it was until last night. Only the healthiest are getting a ventilator and even then if they arrest they get one shock and if no cardiac output that’s it end of. Usually you would shock and give CPR in rounds for at least an hour but now it’s one shock and that’s it.

 

[David O'Day]

Really?

Not what the people I know up there have said, uch hasn't reached its surge capacity yet.

Bye

 

[David O'Day]

It's sick to post nonsense like this

I’ve also heard we ain’t at full capacity yet mate these things we always get fed so who knows

I reckon there’s a bit of truth in it. To shrug it off as nonsense would be psychopathic, ignorant.

We might of picked up speed mate in the past 12-24 hours maybe

You aren't passing anything on, you are just making things up.

Yes of course that’s what I’m doing get a grip you spanner before I set Grendel on you Dave

 

[cc84cov]

Have we got anyone on here who’s got a nurse or doctor etc they know to find out how it actually is up there ?

 

[David O'Day]

We are at apart it but we don't have the beds or ventilators? Just think about what you are saying.

Haha, reckon every bloke with hair is having the same debate/conversation at the minute. Half my mates just shave their heads (so they’re fine), the rest of us are discussing what grade and the risks involved...especially with our ever thinning tops !

 

[David O'Day]

I thought you were passing on what a nurse has said already? If so why would you need to ask a nurse what it is like at uch

 

[cc84cov]

Yes to see if anyone else has any input on this

 

[cc84cov]

this Is off my mrs mate who also works up there

Tbh it is normal! It’s not rammed and over crowded at all! There are not people waiting downstairs or anything do not listen to people inline and what you hear..... dont worry to much! People have died but it’s mainly the elderly with lung problems and stuff xxxx

 

[David O'Day]

I’ve heard we’re not at full capacity yet and I’ve just heard last night we were full to the brim

Those are mutually exclusive things. If UCH was indeed full last night it would of had to issue a critical care alert so no more potential critical care patients are brought in. These things are public.

 

[Brylowes]

He was on the same programme and said if it has to get to that we will be behind the government

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Starmer is in alignment with the Government on many things.

 

[Brylowes]

And what are you? One more scaremonger? Or are you just an apologist for the other scaremongers on here?

Are you not a little scared ‘if not for yourself then your family and friends ?

 

[Ring Of Steel]

don’t know too many specifics but pretty much everywhere is awash with first hand accounts of how bad it is. I assume we’re now saying they’re all lying as well. I know one nurse in Cov and she says it’s pretty bad and scary, as it would be, but also that they are getting by at the moment, no overload yet and they expect the toughest times to come in a week or two. It’s emerging that doctors are overruling people who don’t tick “DNR” so as to avoid overloading the system in the days to come, which is fairly worrying if you’re one of the ones affected or over a certain age.

Being reported that the Nightingale Hospital- that the NHS is being charged rent at £1-2m per week by the Abu Dhabi owners, no idea if that was public knowledge but seems a bit... ‘off’ if true. As is Jacob Rees’ Mogg’s company (think he owns 15%) touting for business saying the opportunities for outstanding returns is amazing. That is true, but disaster capitalism unfortunately looks like it knows no boundaries of decency.

Not discounting the psychological effects of needing a machine to breathe

It getting you to breath on your own valition after having the tubes pulled out is the hard part!.

 

[cc84cov]

This is my mrs mate who’s on lung ward

Everyone that’s come into that hospital and on our section of the ward that’s been locked off has been negative to the virus. I’m just not one of these that believes any of these people that are higher up. They’re all corrupt and say what they need to. As long as they sound they don’t care about the rest of us. Fuck em!xxx

What are the rules in driving to London and 2 footing people sat about in groups in the park?

I miss playing football and they need dispersing.

I don't get it?

 

[cc84cov]

I think she’s saying it’s not as bad as some are making out up there mate I’ve heard different reports some saying it’s rammed others saying it’s not overly much different to normal
