Grand. I’ll take whatever ****e they are giving out. Anything to get out of this never ending cycle of misery, one way or the other.

That sounds like a very bad idea, there's a reason why there are strict protocols in place.

People on here literally suggesting putting out a phase 2 vaccine to the public for a disease that killes about 0.1% of who it infects whom are generally over 80, sums things up.

We need to get a grip

So. the country is rampant with it, so rte decide to send Marty and god knows how many cameramen, makeup artist, etc to Donegal to talk sh1te about a match that isn't happening, and Perry to Derry for absolutely no good reason, the mind boggles. Neither is a necessary journey and well outside the Dublin boundary order

Funny this as a lot of posters on here were ridiculing their own Country and pointing to how different and relaxed the restrictions were in Europe

I for one, would very much welcome a co-ordinated response with Europe. We would be less of an outlier, better for the citizens of this island as a whole.

I agree, it’s totally overblown and a massive overreaction from governments. But they ain’t backtracking so this seems the only way out

If it stops the overreaction and gets us back to normal, I'm sll for it.

Thanks I'm currently composing my complaint! Seriously though how they hell did someone not cop that this was a ridiculous idea to send Catriona + all the camera crew etc up the North?

Yes, the only difference is that in Dublin you have to have food with the pints

Yea all about psychology at this stage,

we could be peddled a sugar cube dressed as a covid vaccine and it could make a significant difference to our lives...

hopefully this will happen and enable life to return to normal from the spring.

Is that actually still true? I think that is no longer the case, might not have been updated but certainly no longer enforced.

It's all so ridiculous. At this stage why is Dublin subjected to this but not Cork?

8 into ICU in the last 24 hours is the most concerning statistic this long time. And I am in no way a doom merchant.

32 admissions to hospital. God be with the days when people used to claim we wouldn't see a rise in hospital admissions. There was some ejit on here a day or two ago saying hospital admissions weren't rising. And he got a few thanks too. You wonder about people.

It is not, you can get a pint without food now in Dublin, even in pubs Gards drink in etc.

It looks like it was an oversight not to update the guidance to dublin

There was a 40% increase in the total number of deaths in Europe in those aged 45 to 64 in early April. Hardly a coincidence.

Yep.

To be fair they probably should've just put the whole place up to the same restrictions to make it easier for us ha

And it would actually suit any bars opening for 15 to enforce this as most wont survive off a few lads sitting down for 3 or 4 pint, they need the meal aswell to make it half worth it

Legally you can't. In Dublin €9 meal still required

Just because Dublin never came out of them being closed. So the "Wet Pubs" (ugh) never opened in Dublin. It will probably all align again at some stage.

If only we had had sugar cubes back then.

So "wet" pubs can now open in Dublin if they can serve outside?
That's news to me! Maybe I'll be able to find somewhere tomorrow, I already know of one place where I managed to have pints a couple of weeks ago, but that was a Wednesday so wasn't busy.

Been saying it for months. Give them fooking Ribena at this stage, anything to stop the madness.

See no one actually seems to know. Some are saying you can serve without food now in Dublin, legally, and you're saying otherwise.
I wish we could get to the bottom of this!

This thread has gone to the dumps. Any sort of normal, measured discussion is long gone.

Yes nothing normal or measured in this .
