    An end is in sight mate and it's great news but it's not 'the' end.

    Sadly the NHS is struggling to cope and things are about to get worse.

    There'll be 100,000 dead by spring and I doubt we'll be out of this crisis before the Autumn ...

    ... just in time for the winter.

    I'm usually so optimistic, it gets on people's nerves, but this is horrific and claims we'll be back to normal by Easter are daft.

    When we're not people will be even more demoralised.

    No mate it's not the end and I don't mind admitting I'm struggling with it...

    The NHS will probably collapse in the next 2 weeks, the staff are under unbelievable pressure.

    Yet some people continue to do as they like, use every excuse they can to bend the rules.

    Frustrates the hell out of me

    Mrs Smug can't watch the news any more because she feels so sorry for the NHS staff.

    You can see they're at their wits end.

    One of the hardest things is seeing how much the "**** you I'm OK" attitude has become the norm.

    I was brought up to look out for family and friends and also to respect others and the community. Yet ore and more I see people not giving a ****e about anyone but themselves

    Absolutely mate ...

    ... these days it's ' know my rights' and 'This is how I am, if you don't like it jog on'.

    Since this all started me and Mrs Smug have followed the rules to the letter.

    We've disinfected our hands before going into shops, worn masks if we were anywhere near other people and kept away from the village.

    So I feel entitled to politely speak my mind to people ignoring the rules ...

    ... they go ballistic and I walk off.

    That's how it came across, Smug, I'm afraid, so I can understand Rooch's grievance.

    Post it up then Gordon.

    I didn't call anyone a rapist, *****phile or child molester ...

    ... I never have in all the time I've posted on here.

    Rooch simply jumped on the chance to have a go because he has a long standing grudge against me.

    So post it up so people can make up their own minds.

    Or, as this would constitute a serious breach of forum rules just give me a lifetime ban.

    I've absolutely nothing to apologise for and won't be doing so.

    Over to you.

    It was the inference, Smug, it's gone now and I don't consider it to be right to post it again.

    He's the biggest Liar on here and cry baby when he has to take it back. He's turned into what Albert is to the Newcastle board. He has to have his own way, he likes to feel important, he likes to give people grief but when it goes against him he hits the report button like a big bairn. As one mod on the forum put it so eloquently 'It's about time Smug put his big boy pants on'

    When your views don't fit in with Smugs, you'll not have an easy time on this board, now. Shame, but let them have it. I'm like you and realising that it's pointless posting on here now and they'll be more posters to follow, I'm sure about that.

    There was absolutely no inference whatsoever.

    Anyone who believes there was must be illiterate.

    I choose my words very carefully and there was no inference at all.

    Please post it again, if people believe it's an inference I'll never post again.

    At least the bloke who called Smug a **** sympathiser had the balls to come out and say it directly to him. Smug done it cowardly. There was no need to question if Rooch would turn a blind eye to child abuse.
