So what do you predict will happen in 2021 ?

I will start.

Pandemic will end.
Economy will lift off.
Pat Kenny will take back control of the Late Late

People who spent all of 2020 bickering about what sectors should close or remain open, whether we should social distance/ travel 5km from home etc will instead bicker over who gets the vaccine first and twitch the curtains looking to see if those already vaccinated are starting to behave recklessly.

Dogs all over the country will need therapy as they try to adjust to owners returning to the office.

Actually, employees will probably need therapy too.

Confirmed existence of other life forms visiting us, whether alien or inter-dimensional. And the return of old Monster Munch.

I'd happily take all of this if it means we don't need to put up with wokeism anymore

You'll still have to put up with it. Just wont be quite as bad. I am planning my escape to Greenland where they are too busy shivering to waste energy on such frivolous carry on. You have to take matters into your own hands. Can't idly stand by while the future happens to you

1) Probably not. I think it will stabalise and we'll get back to "normalish" but face masks and handwashing are here for good.
2) Maybe with a roar and a fart and a stutter
3) Oh God no way - I'd sooner Steve Coogan did it in character.

After a series of unfortunate events, Princess Beatrice becomes Queen of the United Kingdom, dissolves Parliament to regain sovereignty, pardons her Father, gives asylum to the Trumps, invades Cavan as a precursor to a triumphant nationalist fervour mongering glory filled war which goes astray. Merkel, Macron and von der Leyen agree to nuke London, the non-radioactive rump state of the former United Kingdom applies to rejoin the European Union under the nation's savior Nicola Sturgeon.

greensausage · 25-12-2020 08:53PM

Lockdown to last till April, normality to return by the end of august.
Dublin to win the all Ireland.
Ireland to do surprisingly well in the world Cup qualifing campaign but lose in the play offs.
Brexit to hit the UK hard and fast.
Scotland to have concrete plans for another referendum in 2022.
Trump to face criminal charges by the end of the year.

PTH2009 · 25-12-2020 08:55PM

A few more celebrities will die

Mayo will **** up again and lose another AI final

The return of Tipperary winning the AI Hurling

A massive terror attack somewhere in Europe

A **** up with the vaccine by the HSE

Events with big crowds will not happen in Ireland but will return elsewhere

Atlantic Dawn · 25-12-2020 08:57PM

Ireland will land a man on Rockall.
Copper Face Jacks will become a vaccination centre for Nurses.
The computer that hosts the RTE Player will be towed out to sea and sunk for crimes against enjoyment.

You can carve it in stone. Too many middle managers and administrators for a seamless process.

Many many little 17 year old virgins will finally get to lose their virginities when Covid and the lockdowns come to an end

The lucky ones will need the therapy.

whisky_galore · 25-12-2020 09:14PM

The electric car will be a technological dead end.

Penney's will never go online, they rely too much on people going in for one thing and leaving with twenty

Hercule Poirot · 25-12-2020 09:52PM

My own prediction is that things will pretty much carry on as they have this year; lockdown, bit of freedom, lockdown, etc etc

The arrival of the vaccine will absolutely be cocked up in some shape or form and there'll be some scandal about a buddy of a minister getting rich out of the whole thing

Major Global Hacking Incident

Donald Trump gets kidnapped, nobody wants to pay the ransom

Kim Jung Un invades somewhere

Your Face · 25-12-2020 10:08PM

Something to do with Russia.

25-12-2020 10:24PM

A mutation of covid19 will be immune to the vaccine. Children are thought now to be susceptible to becoming infected, so schools will close.

The birth rate will dramatically drop.

The dollar will crash.

President Harris pardons Hilary.
iPhone 13
Pols get a wage increase
Scramblers will still be flying around council estates at Xmas.

I'll add electric scooters to the scrambler problem....

Hopefully once vaccinations start we see the rescinding and abolition of the fines that were brought in.
But no doubt they'll just be left there.

Also mayo won't win Sam, too mentally weak.
Hopefully some Snow
