If I were to take you at your word at not being a Johnson Spav, more fool you!
I don't believe the government are working anywhere near as efficiently as they could (should) be, and yes I suspect (well, know) there's manipulation going on.

However, I simply don't agree with making unjustified, tenuous (being nice there) and somewhat crass links with situations and events that really aren't the same.
 
I go one better
I have the list,the empty shopping bags on the front seat and I put the shopping on the back seat as evidence on my way home lol

The picture that will be on reeling in the years in the future, is men standing in the isle of the super market, looking at the list and the stuff on the shelf on the blower onto the misses trying to work out wtf they are supposed to be buying.

I had to google what the f an avocado looked like one of the days. Didn't recgnise it when it wasnt on my toast. lol

And they say people are disconnected with where their food comes from...
 
Oh, so this clapping the NHS and other folk is a weekly thing then? It must be quite good in a street or on balconies of flats.

If we have had a glass or two of wine, (If lol) Mrs R and I did it last time, but felt a bit daft in our little house in the middle of a field.
Rev up the lawnmower for effect lol
 
True, but the GAA wouldn't have a huge wage bill.

The turn around in testing is a joke

I was looking at the GAA accounts last night a chara they have a 45 mill rainy day fund, but they actually do have significant outgoings and distribution across the game from county to grass roots really would be the low hanging fruit in my opinion.

Rumbling abound that they are going to try and run of a championship in knock out format in October. Struck me as an odd time right at the start of the winter flu season, but im sure any plans are very provisional given the fluidity of the situation.

Im heavily involved in a club in Dublin, we got an April fools email about the club championship being cancelled and within an hour the DCB,, were in touch to say the club championship was going to be played as planned, hard to see but maybe an insight of where the GAA mindset is.

We dont have the infrastructure and weren't prepared prepared for the level of testing for this, in that context i think we have done ok on the human side of testing and putting that infrastructure to test in place particularly in the community, other countries have struggled with that, its the turnaround in processing testing we have struggled with. They need to really improve this during this lock down for the next surge and lock down once restrictions are lifted.

We definitely have more cases then our total figures show, your total figures are only as good as your level of testing really. Informally you can see areas across the country that are hit hard with clusters in the health service from specific areas, but the figures dont reflect this, the virus is moving faster in areas then the test results.

I feel your pain mate.
The Mrs told me to buy her hair dye! Brown she says.
On the shelves I’m faced with light brown, very light brown, natural light brown, light golden brown, mid brown, medium brown, dark brown, chocolate brown, chestnut brown, chestnut honey brown, caramel brown, chocolate caramel brown, mocha brown, choco mocaccino brown.....
Why? And some of them just have numbers. So I call her and she says just pick a dark brown! I take it home, she turns her nose up and says she’ll see what it’s like and if it’s not right I can get something else.
It’s not the lockdown that’ll drive me round the twist...
And yes, just what the hell is micellar water?
