Coronavirus - Here come the variants

Theyā€™ll scan your vaccine passport then your season ticket and in you go.

For a majority of people covid is a mild illness. The risk is for the more vulnerable people who would more likely require a hospital bed. In order to save these people we need more hospital capacity to cope with the issue. For this reason we had a more severe lockdown to protect the hospital system. Do you think the 5 icu beds per 100k had an effect on the decision? Considering we have the lowest in the civilised world and a very large spend on healthcare that we should build this capacity in the wake of covid? We are in the same situation every winter and thatā€™s what I said for months that this overcrowding isnā€™t new but obviously with the nature of transmission of covid makes it a lot worse.

A lesson to be learnt from covid is our heath system isnā€™t fit for purpose in normal times let alone in a pandemic like we currently are. To claim we wonā€™t be changing our current process after Co is absolutely ridiculous

Do they realise no one wants to go to their wedding and are all delighted they canā€™t go.

Christ Iā€™d fucking love to go to a wedding

Whatā€™s more annoying than being invited to a wedding?

Being invited to a wedding and going on and on about how you didnā€™t want to be invited to the wedding.

Just donā€™t fucking go to it and shut up then.

I would like to go to a wedding soon myself, not sure whether I necessarily want it to be one where Iā€™m getting married.

Finding your way to some shithole in west cork and stumbling into the church 10 minutes late. Scoping the auld lads outside the church afterwards for the closest shithole bar where you can sink a few pints as the wimin slowly get angrier and angrier. Slopeing into the hotel and making straight for the bar.

Ah lads, Iā€™d even bet on a speech at this stage :pint:

IF that were to happenā€¦ Would you be a traditional man or have some kind of poet druid marry you in a barn house and ask guests to come with their favourite quotes on a piece of paper that youā€™ll make a montage of for all to see during the meal?

Rory, is that you?

Iā€™d a mate that got ridiculously drunk the night before mineā€¦ Arrived late and saw wedding party in pub across from church and was delighted with himself that he missed the church and he bought a pint to ease the hangover. Half way through the pint he realised he knew no one ā€¦ A different wedding had just stopped by the pub for a quick one on way to their hotelā€¦ it got worse as my wedding was 50 mins late so he just got in for the start of it.
