I'm about to pull the plug on a weekend getaway. It's going to cause a row as the girl I'm seeing is anti restrictions.

The situation is way grim. I can't ignore them numbers and the direction they are heading in.

Fair play. Empathy very low at the minute.Very disappointing tbh. Personally Im not worried about the virus impacting my own health. I'm 30 years old and exercise daily and watch my diet. I am in the minority in my age group however. Younger people playing sports etc don't care at all about this virus. In some way I understand it unlikely to directly affect them but I have to admit I am disappointed. Suppressing this virus not that hard as proven in Asia. Western society struggling to do it for mainly selfish reasons and a lack of discipline

Well the Oxford 'vaccine' almost killed someone they tested on but the story vanished. Amazing what money can do I guess.

This is just the start. It hasn't hit the vulnerable yet. We'll be seeing 1000 deaths a day in Ireland and we'll look back on this time and regret not locking down instantly like Israel.

Now you're just being hysterical.

I see Spain has seen an increase in deaths, +156 today, +9.5k cases

Up to 70% of the population are going to get Covid 19 eventually.

Not really, one of my best friends is due to get married and with the restrictions no friends will be able to go only family. Their both gutted and don't want to go ahead with the day but being left with absolutely no choice by the venue to start with. There was only ever 100 going to this so it was by no means a big wedding.

Sadly they do not realise that their friends don't care really and will be happy to save a few hundred quid for not being able to attend.

Big Weddings should be consigned to history. I don't know anyone who absolutely is ecstatic on receipt of a save the date or an invite anymore.

People have more to do with their money now.

when they where asking for participants originally, which is why I asked recently again in case in a later phase they would, which surely they must be at if they are talking about it being ready by year end?

Sam McConkey said back in March it could kill 20,000+ here. That was only prevented by lockdown. Now there's nothing stopping it from spreading like wildfire. In shops, schools, dry pubs, restaurants and workplaces. It's borderline mass murder. We're pigs to the ****ing slaughter

They had a draconian lockdown, what did people expect would happen once things opened up again?

Yes but its obviously going to much better if its a slow process. Alot of progress has been made with treatment. No one can say with any certainty what is likely to happen. Obviously many more variables at play . Most we dont fully understand

theballz · 15-09-2020 07:18PM

Dublin is the capital and the spear head of the country.

We should lock down the entire country apart from Dublin. IMO.

Weddings are so boring (and formulaic) and bloody expensive too, for a lot of people, bet they will delighted not to have to attend.

Back to basics here now and it's not such a bad thing either. The meringue and all the associated shyte of 175 attendees is hopfully gone now.

Everyone wishes you well, but it's nothing to do with me either apart from wishing you well. A two minute thing on an email to decline + a pressie, job done.

Sorry now, I know some will be offended. But who cares.

I know, isn't it shocking that everyone doesn't just agree with you and have the same view on everything? How they dare people want a big party celebration surrounded by all their family and friends that they'll remember for the rest of their life.

Nobody is forced to go to a wedding against their will. Not that hard respond, sorry but weddings aren't really my thing, I just don't feel comfortable at them but I hope you have a great day and we can meet up some time after for a coffee and you can tell me all about it.

I say this as someone who is getting married next year and will have less than 20 guests, covid restrictions or not.

We've seen on this this thread before that if some posters don't personally like or agree with something, then theyre delighted when restrictions put a stop to it and fantasize about it never coming back. Not keen on big weddings myself, and it wouldn't be my choice (the only guests at our wedding were our daughter and my parents lol) but I wouldn't be happy that anyone had theirs affected by this. The friends are better off without people like that there "celebrating" with them anyway.

Mad to think this is all kicking off again in Europe just as winter approaches,almost1000 COVID deaths in Europe in the last 48 hours, could that timing really just be coincidence or could it be a seasonal illness?

Well I can tell you the friends do care. Its a not a large group of friends but everyone has known everyone for years.

Thats your take on big weddings and thats grand but not everyone has that take.

This was 100 people and everyone who was invited was going.

Devastated for them both.

I wish I was trolling. I lost my job in April because of covid and that ****ed me right up. It's been a long and hard 6 months for me. As it has for many

Bollix. I have been forced to about 20.

I'd rather get a fúcking bill in the door than an invite.

Advisers for Taoiseach Micheál Martin, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar and Green Party leader Eamon Ryan are set to cost taxpayers at least €1.5m a year.

The Coalition leaders have 17 special advisers between them, with salaries ranging from €74,000 to as much as €180,000

Nice Pay for Some

Plenty of experts understand the risks with use in the general public. Most of NPHET do, senior HSE officlas do.
I witness the constant misuse every day by people coming into retail, retail staff, deli staff, delivery drivers, shelf stackers. Every part or the chain is a cluster fcuk of misuse.
I'm a big believer in perspex, hand washing, distancing, ventilation, good cleaning regime.
Public transport I get but not retail, it's doing more harm than good.

I'm saying no more about it as it's driving me crazy the acting CMO hasn't a clue what's happening on the ground and he obviously can't even follow his own rules.

You lasted four minutes....four freaking minutes!

I got a little worried the other night when a bunch of scobes were coming my direction all in masks it was nearly fully dark and i'm not a small guy, seriously thinking of trading in my rifle for a hand gun if this continues much longer. The same toe rags wouldn't wear a mask when there meant to.

Yeah like if they don't have the balls to negotiate a work-from-home agreement with their employer its like hey lets just shut down the whole country. Gee I really like not having a stressful commute anymore thanks Leo.
