Ban women
The Priests to provide the security

Some good ideas here. Be careful about 2pm though as that will intrude on Holy Hour.

…th, according to the data published by the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington in the US.The research looks at the predicted spread and impact of coronavirus in 29 European countries and assumes social distancing measures will remain in place until August.

UW have emerged as the best modelers on the planet, updating data for individual countries and all US states daily. The median death count for the US has now dropped to 81K and is dropping daily.

I wonder what the much maligned Vintners Federation are up to these days? I would imagine that they are looking to get the pubs open again as soon as possible and the only way to do that is through social distancing measures.

Keep imagining

[anon60384913]

Well if you believe there’ll be social distancing in pubs then something will give. I remember touring Kerry in 2018 in the Of June with a friends from the north and @TreatyStones neighbour. It was extremely hot maybe touching 30 degrees and we stopped into Paudie o sheas after doing the cliff drive. There was a fella sitting in the corner by the pool table speaking Irish wearing wellies and an old suit covered in shit. It was no later than 3pm. He was drinking a pint and a brandy straight with no ice every 20 minutes or so. It was very impressive in its own way given the heat. I’ve been thinking about that fella a bit the past few weeks. I’d say he’s in awful way for a pint altogether. I can only imagine the Sort of reaction you’d get if you asked that Caliber of porter mechanic to wait outside for another fella to finish off his drink.

Pubs will have reserved times for over 65s, and reserved times for whatever other demograpic groups require it, same as Tescos does now. The rest will be happy to take their chances and equally happy to be paying over 12euro for a couple of pints for the privilage

brandy straight with no ice

Who the fuck puts ice in their brandy?

[anon60384913]

Well I wouldn’t know too much about brandy being honest but it was so warm that day I’d have put ice in anything.

[Lazarus]

They must love you down in Kerry, I’d say you get charged yank prices

[TheBlackSpot]

Could you maybe elaborate a little bit please? Maybe outline the respective positions here.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

you were overly agressive and let things get on top of you, we needed jovial or sincere posts mate not anger and tension

[Lazarus]

@TheBlackSpots aggresive tone throughout this period has ruined the whole virus for me

[TheUlteriorMotive]

I called this as over a week ago. I’m on the back straight wearing a garland while you huff and puff over the line

[TheBlackSpot]

Ok, thanks for that, pal. I can’t remember being aggressive but I’ll take your word for it. I’m not really one for arguing.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

good to see you get back to your placid self now this whole thing is over

[anon7035031]

A little early to declare victory, but I think we can say we are safely through to the next round. There’s a few on here that should get the rebranding over with now.

He’s still on the BCG ship and can’t answer the anomaly that is Germany. He has zero credibility around here.

[anon7035031]

Are you on or off the BCG express?
The Germans are experts at managing the numbers.

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

well @Thomas_Brady - are you?
