The main one that most folks do is using sausages, even the tinned version is mainly sausage. Ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I enjoyed the weather yesterday by sitting in my garden with a book while the little one marked everything with chalk. Managed to get the bbq out to make meatballs and pasta, will take some pics next time as it came out really well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icefever Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) They say stay in, have food delivered, have you tried??? I've just logged onto Tesco's no slots until the 1st May. Asda is only showing 7 days those are all booked. Looked at Amazon for bread yeast and there's a guy on there selling a 500 gr pack at nearly 4 times the RRP..it should be stopped now. Rant over.

Icefever Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Not a lot happening here of late, still looks like a complete cockup where the Gov is concerned. First we're in, then we're out, make you think of the oki koki...😅.. Listening to the news this morning about wearing face masks, the wife had to go for an ultrasound on her shoulder last Fri. The hospital rang her before and said could she wear a mask & gloves for her appointment. She turned up wearing both to find not one nurse or member of the public wearing either.....why?? Will we ever beat this virus?? I'm sure I don't know. Ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeyjoe Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 same here mate, i have a serious lung condition so have been shielding, but i do have to go out as the wife does not drive and we have nobody else to assist, i stay in the car, she wear's mask and gloves, carries sanitizer and generally use's common sense, from day 1 where i am, people have been generally carrying on as normal, no ppe, no social distance, they just do not seem to care, they way this shower of clowns have handled things has only added to this so its getting to a stage where i am literally becoming a prisoner in my own home due to the inconsideration/selfishness of others.😠 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only agree more with you. 1 hour ago, flearider said: but it's a little worst than the flue for young un's for older folk it depends if you have anything else Well young un's have been dying also....as for the older folk, my wife is 74 later this year and I'm 73, I've had Pneumonia twice back in 2015...and the wife has to be careful of any chest infections, so for us two we've had to watch what we're doing...lets all keep our fingers crossed it's over soon.🤞 Ice.

This human Melware has totally devastated my Business for this year, Yet I have stuck rigorously to the Lock Down rules, do not think I left my house/garden for 4 weeks at one point. The wife has to work (NHS) so she’s been doing most of the shopping on the way home. The only good thing to come out of this is Boris has payed me to build my home Pub, The Monkey Arms. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icefever Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Well here we are Aug 3rd, the Gov are talking about the over 50's going into lockdown again, there's talk of a 2nd wave, which I think most of us predicted would happen. Shops are open one day, shut the next, folks are losing their jobs, where's the money coming from to pay the bills??. Wish we had a time machine.....I'd go straight back to the 70's..I'm thinking of starting a "Gofund me" so I can buy an island just to get away from it all...😆 will we ever see another Tailgate??? or were they just a figment of my imagination?

Justin Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Oh it will be ok in the end mate. I heard that the infection rate is rising fastest in the under 40s. What do you mean over 50's going into lockdown again? It has not happened before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) We shall see, i not imagine it will be blanket over 50's when the highest rate of increase in infections is the under 40's, i.e younger people think they impervious and one of the driving forces behind a possible 2nd wave of course they could be asymptomatic and the spreaders of the virus....

Gaza the Instructor Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 according to my atomic clock Ice, you, me and Justin are only 49and a half mate.

Gaza the Instructor Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 You have a mobile phone? Can show you pics of HWMBO getting humpy and she will tell you how lazy and useless I am. I tell her I have a Boston Butt in the smoker and can't leave it unattended. That's why I sit in a comfy chair for hours with cold beer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
