    Lockdown effects now killing/harming more people than Covid

    I remember back in 2021 these so called experts saying everyone should have their big Christmas togethers at EASTER instead. But then come Easter we were still in a pointless wreckless THIRD lockdown and other restrictions nonsense still going! We really don't need all this "Covid...

    Covid restrictions abroad: updates & observations

    I too would say that was debatable that people WANTED strict Covid measures throughout 2020 and into the first half of 2021. The general feeling I got from people was that by autumn 2020 MANY people were absolutely sick and tired of those stupid pointless "Covid measures" and wanted them to...

    Bristol-Wells/Street Vintage Bus Running Day - New Years Day?

    Anyone know if this event is running this Sunday? Did it run on New Years Day 2022? I can't find any info about it. Might go for just a return to Wells on two decent vintage buses if this event is running!

    Covid restrictions abroad: updates & observations

    I did previously say something along the lines of "Don't worry, mandatory face mask laws or any other of that Covid restrictions nonsense will DEFINITELY not be coming back this winter and beyond.". I very much hope I'm still right on that. But if the mainstream media start being a nuisance...

    Covid restrictions abroad: updates & observations

    It's all over the TV news this morning about the surge in cases in China. It's on the BBC Breakfast, Good Morning Britain, Sky News, even GB News. And even more annoyingly on Good Morning Britain, they've announced there is an item coming up about "Should we be wearing masks again"!!!! For...

    Great British sitcoms

    Some great sitcoms in that list of options. But a lot of old sitcoms not listed. Such as.... Steptoe and Son Please Sir! The Fenn Street Gang Mind Your Language Hancock's Half Hour Bless This House George and Mildred Man about The House Robin's Nest Slinger's Day Tripper's Day All at Number...

    First West of England (Bristol, Bath & The West)

    To solve this problem(and similar instances where people need to get two buses to get to their destination), First should come up with a new ticket, such as a 2 Hour Ticket(at a £2 cost) similar to the bus/tram/metro tickets in countries such as Germany and the Netherlands.

    Autumn 2022 Covid wave peaked earlier than predicted

    Trust me, mandatory face mask muzzle restrictions or any other of that "Covid restrictions" nonsense will definitely NOT be returning this winter and beyond. If they were to have brought that nonsense back, they would have done so by now. And if there was even a hint that there was a chance...

    First West of England (Bristol, Bath & The West)

    Conflicting info about the M4 on whether it will operate between Centre and Cribbs Causeway, or just Bristol Parkway and Cribbs Causeway according to the recent news article on the Evening Post website. If it operates between Centre and Cribbs Causeway, that will take some pressure off the M1...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Putin today gives "rare update" on status of war. Says war could be a long process, and the threat of nuclear war is on the rise. For god's sake Putin, just give up this pointless barbaric war and your umpteen threats of nuclear war will you!!!! Ukraine and the rest of the world doesn't need...

    Autumn 2022 Covid wave peaked earlier than predicted

    Indeed. I said it would happen didn't I! The usual suspects The Mirror, The Sun, Sky News, The i, etc with their doom mongering nonsense again. They just can't wait to publish all this nonsense every time there's a rise in cases! When are they going to give it up with this nonsense!! The only...

    Autumn 2022 Covid wave peaked earlier than predicted

    Trust me, I'm certainly not worried about what the media are/will be saying about COVID. And I think the vast majority of people now are not falling for that nonsense doom mongering anymore. I'm just saying it's likely the press and media will be up to their usual tiresome scare mongering...

    Autumn 2022 Covid wave peaked earlier than predicted

    There will probably be another rise in Covid cases tomorrow when the Covid stats dashboard is updated. The last few weeks the decline in Covid cases has been falling back. And last week's was just a 6.7% drop. So I predict tomorrow there'll be another rise in Covid cases, ranging from...

    Covid restrictions abroad: updates & observations

    I read on here recently though that the German government could re-introduce stricter rules on face coverings, by making them compulsory in shops, etc again this autum/winter. Though thankfully that not has happened yet. Either way though, it will probably be at least April until if I goto...

    Covid restrictions abroad: updates & observations

    I was in the Netherlands for 5 days. During that time and all the thousands of people I would have saw about, I only saw about 15 people wearing face masks. Which is miniscule really. The Dutch are pretty much through with wearing the stupid things! Though when I was in the London Victoria...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    Whilst it was great news at the weekend that Russia had withdrew it's troops from Kherson, seeing Ukraine had taken back control of the city and seeing all those scenes of celebration in the city and even talk that this is the beginning of the end of the war. I myself was not feeling too...

    Companies Using "Because of COVID" As An Excuse For Poor Service

    What utter utter nonsense from Blinds4UK! "New national restrictions"???! "Social distancing measures already in place" ???! What an earth are they on about? If it was me, I'd email back to say are you not aware social distancing measures were scrapped 16 months ago?!

    Things the younger generation wouldn’t believe when you were a kid

    That 30+ years ago on some days during the winters, there was very very thick dense fog. You could barely see more than a few feet in front of you when walking. It would last for hours at a time before clearing up. It could start sometime in the morning and then not clear up until late...

    Russia invades Ukraine

    From Sky News It absolutely infuriates me some of the absolute nonsense allegations that sick mad evil Putin and his chronies are saying about "The West" and Britain. Also saying that Britain is threatening Moscow with nuclear weapons! I'm still concerned that one day there's going to be a...

    Autumn 2022 Covid wave peaked earlier than predicted

    This weeks Covid stats dashboard published today. Cases down 32%, deaths down 24%, and hospital admissions downs 26%! That "wave" which peaked a couple of weeks back was nothing! The next wave in maybe about a month or so will be similar, if not even even more minor than the one we just had...
