It could also be poor management in certain NHS trusts and certain care homes East lancs NHS had to go to the press a few day to state that they had enough PPE in their hospitals, and a process in place to get more when needed. If they can do it, why Carnt other trusts? I know of care homes who hav...

5000 people have died this week, plus hundreds more at home and in care homes.
Good Friday Sun Headline, Boris is out ( now that is a Good Friday).
You couldn't make it up!

To be fair Pete, I have always had a downer on Johnson and the press barons on all sides of political persuasion.

We "beat" Spain and Italy's worst daily death total yesterday. The Suns headline today is get well babe, from PM to his partner.
Which of these messages is most likely to make people want to stay in?

I read the newspaper reviews on Friday morning on the BBC website. Basically it shows the headlines of every paper. Not one mention of 938 people dying in one day on any front page. Plenty about the PM out of ICU, who is the only person in the country to have gone into there with Covid 19 and not be...

That whole sorry mess would have been averted had the govt done the sensible thing and designated dentistry as essential service - which it is - even if reduced to emergency procedures. I remember typing a bit of a post out on another covid thread about dentistry the day full lockdown came into for...

I wear mine over my face when I sneak into the NHS hour at Tesco with a "borrowed" ID.

They never ask!

Hopefully this is a joke.

Or are you really pretending to work for the NHS and buying goods in a time ser aside for front line staff who are risking their lives daily?

It is a great read but it has been on here for quite a while now.

Just seen a stat on home attendances in 69 70 season. Our average was a bit less than 16500..
Every other team was 20k plus.

I've got to admit I'm a bit surprised at how low it was.

Rightway at Brierfield lights is open (old Greyhound pub) Strictly three customers at a time and the staff are all geared up in masks and gloves. The hardware shop at Padiham (the top one) was open yesterday. Things are changing so quickly I'd check first. As for using Algon -- it's acetic acid, yo...

In the annual supplement in today's Sunday Times, the best places to live, Burnley is one of 3 least woke places. We are least likely to own an electric car, and are the least charitable people in the UK, based on online charity giving sites.

The proposal was to free selected prisoners who had less than 3 months of their sentence left.
Not free them all.

I had 3 videos in the 80s. They were MOTD the 60s, the 70s and the 80s. Absolutely brilliant to watch. The BBC should be showing some of these games on Saturday night's, not insulting our intelligence with Mrs Brown's boys.

Tui has just emailed a reminder to me, this morning, requesting final (large) payment, for my cruise around the Med! Due by 24th March. I better check the rules!

Odious woman
Apparently built into her contract she has to perform Granny Porn for her bosses publications if West Ham get relegated.
That’s a fact....probably

Did you not post this?

Is there a prize ? Misogynistic is a bit far - I would have said the same thing had it been a bloke. It’s who she chooses to work for that is the issue....aswell as the way West Ham choose to go about their business and the crooked deal they did to buy the ground. But you didn't say it about a blok...

And the most misogynistic posters of the day by some distance are Factual Frank (that is also an oxymoron) and TVC 15.

Not if you’re fit and healthy. It’s only (99.99%) dangerous if you have an underlying health condition. Most of us will get a cough and possibly a high temperature. Hardly the end of the world.

Apart from many incredible saves. The Pele save, the save from Geoff Hurst's penalty and nearly every top pro in the 60s and early 70s naming him as the worlds best keeper. In fact, without checking, and apologies if I'm wrong, but I think he won FIFA's keeper of the year around 6 or 7 times. Also,...

A number of credentials on Gordon Banks' side; winning the World Cup and 'that' save against Pele plus the fact he seemed a genuinely, down to earth nice guy. However, I don't particularly recall anything outstanding about him in his time with Leicester and Stoke. There were a number of very good g...

Possibly there are too many people remember crossing Stanley Park after a night match to get to where PC Plod had unhelpfully parked the buses? Maybe outside Stanley Park, all scousers are wonderful; but inside Stanley Park, not so much. I remember similar happenings at Wednesday, Middlesbrough, Le...

The Sulwath Brewery in Castle Douglas has a tap room selling their own beers on tap. It's about 3 years since I was in it so it may have changed, but it was an excellent way to spend an afternoon! We called in around 18 months ago, but unfortunately I was driving but Mrs Siddo tried a few. Cracking...

Some excellent info on ypur posts mate. Dumfries and Galloway is really underrated, with some great places to visit. Wigtown, Castle Douglas and Rockliffe for the best cliff walk in the UK. Also, some of the restaurants and pubs are as good as anywhere in the country. The route through to Fort Willi...

Just watched the 'Richard Hammond Big' Engineering program about the new Spurs stadium - they sell 65000 pints on a matchday - probably a tenner a pint..... 25000 of which comes from their own in-house brewery.

They sell beer at £4 a pint.

Last night in Bangkok before we set off for home. No panic or overreaction here at all. Taxi drivers still not wearing masks, and we didn't see anyone wearing one in Koh Lanta. However, our internal flight to Bangkok was almost exclusively filled by Europeans, and they were mostly wearing masks. I'm...

I have had one supernatural experience when I was 8 years old that I only share with my family, and had one staying in a b&b in Cornwall with my family.
My son had a supernatural experience in the old Woolworths store in town, when it changed to JJB. He still doesn't like talking about it.

Watching at a beach bar in Koh lanta. Heaven...........

Meanwhile, here in Thailand...no panic, no concern, almost no one wearing masks and life carrying on as normal. Corvid 19 features on TV, but it isn't the main story. Funnily enough, the shooting isn't featured much now. I wandered around the local shops and area yesterday and it was very busy, but ...

We are not little Britain though. We live in a global environment.

I am currently in holiday with family in Thailand. We have stayed in Bangkok, had internal flights, taxis, meals out, and are currently in a resort area before travelling to the South of the country.

No side are pushing WBA or Leeds for the top 2 spaces - let's hope Brentford don't do what the rest are doing and that's drop points when they have a chance of getting near to them. Some of the chasing pack are only 3 and 4 points behind Leeds. Brentford are one of those clubs. Did you not look at ...

If that combo wins we would need to elect a male deputy deputy leader as there would be a crisis if both Nandy and Raynor were on the rag at the same time.

Close(ish) proximity to London. Old people (if you’re like Wayne Rooney).

Amazing any working class person can vote tory.

I'm talking about your "I'm alright Jack" statement because you have private medicine.
I would love to know why you have wanted out of the EU for 20 years, when most leave voters never gave it a thought until 2016.

No he isn't. When are we going to see him pull a world class save?
I don't hear "what a save" too often when Pope is in goal.

I don’t give a flying fart about what you believe. I’ve wanted out of the EU for the past 20 odd years and putting money into the NHS didn’t really matter to me as I’ve got private health. So like I said, I made my own mind up and didn’t have it made up for me by a politician. Is this post a wind u...
