Some old people are bold alright. My life partner’s auld lad was the same when she rang him after Varadkar’s speech last night. Took a defensive and then confrontational tone and said he’d go wherever he wanted.
His blatant refusal to follow instructions and his brazenness reminded me of my late nana when a new roundabout was built near her house.
A straight-line pathway parallel to the road was replaced by a curved path with a railing separating it from the road and then a pedestrian crossing a good bit up along the curve. So she used to walk outside the railing on the main road to get from A to B as the crow flies instead of the curvy route. Cars and lorries beeping her out of it and she strolling nonchalantly along without flinching.
Sweden also have looser rules than most other countries. They’re recent numbers are also trending the wrong way. Will be interesting to see how they continue to trend.
Half the day on the phone to the parents there, they won’t comply with cocooning, in terms of going for walks up the burren or the shop in the local village. All I could get was a guarantee not to go to Ennis. Things are bad enough without having to deal with this lark
a savage amount of them fought in the battle of Britain for the RAF and then after, the poles are alright sorts, I had a very good experience there last summer. There’s a lad in Morden who is savage at sorting out the jacks too when it goes tits up blocked with shite
I was in Wroclaw there last summer, it more a German type city but it was lovely, great drink and grub, very cheap and the weather was unreal. Please god I will go back some day if I can survive this crisis
