Speaking of M&S my mate who works at one in Solihull dropped off pork, turkey, stuffing, pigs in blankets, goose fat and the real winner.....I tried to stop at the M&S food hall on the way into work this morning to pick up some butties for me dinner, only to be told you need to pre-book a slot now.....You can't just turn up & join a queue!
.....so a full english breakfast from the local cafe will just have to suffice

The name fits, it literally is.. The best one everThat's not a pig in a blanket mate, it's a prawn cocktail, albeit the best one ever
The name fits, it literally is.. The best one ever
If it fucks up my prawn cocktail, then shits going down... On my own in a room ranting mind you but still... GOING DOWN!!!!Roll on the Honduras fishing dispute, and trade deal...
They do do some cracking stuff to be fair to them
That’s a fair point Steve, and well put. Please don’t tar me with the same brush as Farage & any Conservative‘Maybe a highly contagious strain of Covid and food shortages which further spoils everyone’s Christmases will teach them’.
Why people (not just you Bodicote) are tying this to brexit with an ‘I told you so’ attitude is as bad as Farage, Williamson etc on the other side when they were praising us for the (non U.K.) vaccine roll out and suggesting it was because of Brexit. There’s a bit of a difference in countries having extra checks on borders/delays and closing them all together with no notice because of a worldwide pandemic !
If the concerns about this new strain are correct, this could be serious for numerous reasons and not just for us. Everyone closed their borders to denmark when they found the mink strain so it’s understandable until some protocols are put in place....we are just getting our extra dose of shit Covid luck with it being a few days before Christmas. Hopefully on further research/info things will settle down but it’s a bit worrying.
In the meantime there are plenty of genuine issues that could be caused by Brexit and the governments handling of the pandemic to focus on, without trying to lump in the fact that this strain/variant and the ramifications caused, is something we as a country weirdly deserved for voting for either
Ps I will gladly take some of the above rant back if the new strain is some sort of government ruse to justify changing Christmas restrictions (I wish it was/hope it is !) !
edit - just heard port borders with France have reopened which is hopefully the start of some better news ! Fingers crossed

I did indeed vote for him, haven't once said I hadn't.Desperate.
It’s not a sports game mate. You can admit you voted for a dud. We all want the best for the country.
Damn Honduran boats fishing just off Grimsby. ScandalousRoll on the Honduras fishing dispute, and trade deal...
It will be a miracle if we aren't in lockdown/tier 4 in the next few days, this is fucking awful
Chin up Dom. Enjoy the little things, don’t dwell on the rest and you’ll get through this.Think all eyes will be on tomorrows, always high on a tuesday
Good response as in measures that had in place for 15 odd years prior incase of a outbreak of a virus.
Why would we? Last outbreak was what Spanish flu in 1918? Majority of viruses originate from Asia so ofcourse they are more prepared than we are.
Wouldn't happen here due to population density and the amount of people here anyway, it's common sense that tells you if we locked down fully most wouldn't listen to. The rules, as they didn't earlier this year.
Health and safety has nothing to do with it. It’s a zoonotic virus caused by close proximity of man to animals. We have cases of humans in the U.K. catching bovine TB every year, usually a farmer or vet. Only takes that to mutate and bang, you have a pandemic.
Edited for youThey do do some crackling stuff to be fair to them
Because we're not south Korea maybe?So given they'd got previous experience with SARS etc and a system set up, why didn't we use it as a template for our own response instead of the route we took?
I don't know if cov uni is using the same tests but they look to be a potentially dangerous waste of time.
We've had enough of the experts mate. Don't know if you've heard.So given they'd got previous experience with SARS etc and a system set up, why didn't we use it as a template for our own response instead of the route we took?
There’s part of the problem. We have a government full of people that have been telling us for the last five years that we don’t need to listen to experts now telling us that we need to listen to experts. No surprise that the largest percentage of Covidiots are the same idiots too happy to follow the advice that we’ve had enough of experts.We've had enough of the experts mate. Don't know if you've heard.
Waffle, waffle, next slide pleaseBoris press conference at 5. Bound to be good news...
Japan seemed to have done ok
Famously obedient society.Japan seemed to have done ok
This bit is very scary " In Blaenau Gwent, the rate is up from 698.5 to 1,006.3"
