When the rules are clear itās easy stick by them is what I mean.
theoretically but in @TreatyStones situation above nobody wants to be the cunt to call it out. Nobody on earth wants to be that guy
Especially in a local setting, the previous night a lad I hadnāt met in months came over to the table talking to us on his way to the bathroom. Sure I wasnāt going to tell him fuck off

I was out for a few Thursday and Friday. I will be reigning myself in now for the rest of the week. Herselfās parents are coming down and are very nervous so happy to do my bit to relax them, especially since my alternative idea of them staying where they were and me going buck ape didnāt get a very warm reception.

Sure iām in a village. I hadnāt seen anyone in months when the pubs opened in october that time. I went for a few pints on the Thursday night and lads I played ball with down here were up hugging and fist bumping after 4 or 5 pints. I was at the table with a friend of mine and he got uncomfortable with the amount of people coming over. Sure what could I say. Weāll drink this one and go pal.
there is no vaccine
Iām after telling my missus I canāt go the in laws because I havenāt been very fastidious in my movements for the last week. She agreed.
Every cloud. Iāll be spending Christmas at home in peace

The tension is ratcheting up incrementally.
Reality sinking in for many the length and breadth of the country and it aināt pretty.
These are horrendously difficult days for many folk. Talk to someone, ring a pal, reach out - thereās always someone to unload on.
Iāll light a candle for you all every day till Nollaig na mban and weāll all come through this difficult 2/3 weeks. Weāve got to stick together and stick to the plan as best possible. Keep safe.

I would genuinely worry for people over the next week. It must be soul destroying for people in the UK. Things finally looking up over the past few weeks, vaccine on the way, getting to meet loved ones for Christmas and then it all pulled away in a few hours. Some people will not cope with that.

No that will be devastating to a lot of people. A lot will probably spend Christmas alone in a foreign country.
Christmas is a tough time for people who are struggling normally. Iād be very concerned about the effects of this on their psyche
Did you make a few bob this week?
weāve come through worse (not us, weāre soft as fuck) but people in general.Adversity makes us. Weāll come through this.
I will if Miami hold on in the gridiron. Never opened the pub

The most depressing thing about the irish in England is the old folk who went over backnin the 60s/70s who live alone and rely on the other emigrant community. Theres a large population of these folk who rely on Irish centres for company as they have no family over and little contact with what they left here

Society as a whole makes it through, but not everyone makes it with them.
