The flatmate Iād say
Thatās the 15th
I had my daughter out earlier and there was noone out. Iāve noticed parents are letting their kids out when they see other kids going in.
Iām looking forward to getting back west and up the mountains
Is there any point at all when this kind of stupidity is rampant

I went to high five my younger lad earlier (he managed to swallow a tablet for first time). Without flinching he gives me the elbow - the Irish education system is first class

A mate of mine who was in Cheltenham all week was texting me earlier about the mass hysteria and paranoia at home. Iād say anyone over there for the week is completely detached from whatās happened here in way that is impossible to understand. Being there is like being in a bubble, and the UK response makes things worse.

A big cunt shaped bubble. Lad from Racing Post on Matt Cooper tonight did himself no favours.

It presents a terrific opportunity to tell the children that Santaās caught the bug and unless theyāre extremely good Christmas is a thing of the past.

Irish Liverpool fans on the tv saying they only regret going now because they lost. Just about sums it all up really.

I would imagine half the conversation over there was about how stupid everyone at home is for over reacting. So in the same way weāre convinced anyone who travelled is a nutter (sorry @Spidey and @AppleCrumbled), most people there will have convinced themselves that we are complete nutcases who are over dramatising a scenario.
The keyboard warriors on both sides are likely preparing for a hell of a war over the next week
It actually wasnāt Mac. I was speaking to a girl who had to stay as she exercising horses in the morning. She was out yesterday evening and said it was awful. She Said it felt awkward almost. A lot of people headed home and werenāt out after racing. I think it was only yesterday when things got bad.

Iād love to think that what youāve described is the majority but Iād say itās likely itās the minority based on others I was talking to
think Kevin Blake and a few more put it up twitter Thursday evening they were leaving. As my friend jack put it - itās like standing in the colosseum drinking as Rome burned.
Itās a very contagious disease. It kills a fair whack of people even in western countries like Italy. Yer man on Radio was narcissistic - his convenience of not self isolating trumps other peopleās lives.
Next time horse racing has a crisis and they will they can go and shite.

The public playground in whitegate is shutting down in the morning.
No way Iām sending on a pic of a 29 yr old Danish girl who works out each day

I flew early Monday with little or no worries.
Felt a big change Wednesday night. Felt like the world was ending.
Was happy to be home yesterday morning.
