    Crack out the playstation and the cleenex boxes.

    It's time to go full on 21st century Howard Hughes.

    Thank you, my sister will step aside if it means someone else can get one. Its the way she is.

    I pray every day she is safe and can't imagine the stress she is under at the minute. I text every day to tell her I'm proud of her but it's doesn't seem enough.

    I read a lot on other forums of people not believing the reports, calling it exaggerated etc but I just hope enough decent people pay attention and follow the rules.

    Yeah, they won't be happy with us.

    Hundreds of British and Irish backpackers in Australia's only fully locked down hotspot decided to have a bit of a party.

    There's a reason people don't like Brits abroad.

    Yeah, I would agree with that. I think it's going to be mayhem globally and we are in for a grim January.

    I’m starting to wonder who’s next in line for his job me, all I saw today was a bumbling buffoon who deflects questions to others best suited to answer and he still combs his hair with a balloon. He’s getting hung out to dry imho, as competent as trump

    Mate our nhs is the envy of the world, my eldest daughter wouldn't be alive but for them.

    I get frustrated at people who see what's happening, the fact 3 trusts have declared major incidents and still they persist with the bullshit.

    I remember 30 odd years ago a soldier (Andrew mudd?) had his legs blown off in a terrosit attack, he was at my dad's hospital recovering and there was a bomb scare. My dad was I'm charge of nursing services so he did what he had to do and removed all the nurses from itu and sat with Mr Mudd making sure he was safe and stable while the nurses looked after others.

    Why did he do it? Because he had to keep him safe and had a duty to protect his staff and the other patients and wouldn't ask anyone to do something he wouldn't do.

    My sister had the same mentality and is there as I type on the ground helping fight this horrible virus.

    And if the person lying on the bed in front of her doesn't belive Covid is real or doesn't believe nurses earn every single penny of their monet she will not flinch or bat an eyelid, she will give them the best.

    Sorry for the ramble and in no way aimed at you, but I hope people read your post and mine and realise the human side to this pandemic

    Honestly if I had my way I’d abolish Parliament all together it’s just a hive of corruption and let Prince William make all the decisions
