Coronavirus

Has the Dic posted any football related posts on Saintsweb, or is he just a monomaniac troller?

In Covid news closer to home one of my football team colleagues has tested positive, but luckily she didn't come to the signing on session this week as she was feeling so rough. She's a teacher, and although the kids are now off I imagine a lot more contact with non-vaccinated people than many of us vaccinated oldies on here. It's still out there, so I haven't relaxed my guard completely.

whelk, I'm so sorry. Particularly after pointing out your punctuation errors on a football thread earlier.  Rest in peace.  But do remember your full stops.  Luckily ouija boards don't need punctuation.

How childish can u be. There is no chance of you giving me £1,000 after I answer. If you can pay it into my lawyers escrow tomorrow and he sends me proof, I will answer right away. You won't. When I answer you will make up some silly excuse as to why the deal is null and void. Jeez how old are you?

No details have been sent to me for your lawyers escrow account so I haven't been able to transfer the £1,000.

Looks like you've bottled it once again.

Jeez, you've certainly nailed it when it comes to making yourself look silly.

You asked for a guarantee, I gave you a cast iron guarantee, you can't get a better one than that.

I'm guessing that your reluctance to answer the question put to you has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of money in my bank account and everything to do with the fact you've realised you're a complete plank and have made yourself look particularly silly (again), and now you are tring to back track....

You simply can't answer the question because you know there is no logical answer.  It's fine, no one thinks any worse of you for your inability to answer the question because everyone already thought you were an utter bell end anyway.

You know and I know you will never pay up in a million years. So, can you explain why you made such a silly claim?

So, put up your email address so i can email you account details. Bottom line. Be honest in front of all your peers, or you are going to look an utter idiot. Would you send me £1,000 (one thousand UK pounds) to my bank just for answering a question? No if, but maybe. Simple yes or no.

All I know for someone to act out a persona on a separate account would be incredibly sad. Overthinking the importance as all pretty anonymous so seems bit pointless creating a separate anonymous account as couldn’t give a fuck what account stuff comes from.

Yes, makes you pause for thought. Everybody thinks it can never happen to them, only other people. It should be compulsory reading for anyone who’s not sure about getting vaccinated.

How the fuck can they change the traffic light system of a country whilst people are there and expect them to stump up the cash for hotel quarantine? Why do they even need hotel quarantine? Surely it’s equally as safe to drive or get a taxi and stay home for 10 days rather than be forced to spend £1700 per person on this farce. How many people have a space £5-£6k laying around to pay for an enforced rule like this at no notice??

The whole traffic light and quarantine system is a joke. For example the UK classifies some countries with open borders as red and some as green. Want to visit a red country without penalty? no problem either just get a flight to a place close to the border and drive your hire car over or get an indirect flight, changing places in somewhere green or amber. At immigration at Gatwick I got asked a couple of cursory questions with no check on my answers. Nobody looked at my PCR tests. When I got home I simply got two calls on my mobile asking if me if I was quarantining at home  - to which the answer could easily have been 'yes' whilst you were sat in football game or crowded club.

Couldnt agree more.

The fee for hotel quarantine is going up very soon to over £2,300. Absolutely criminal.

Isn’t it a Travel lodge or similar as well? For 3 of us that would cost us £6900, more than a 5 star all inclusive for two weeks. Absolute rip off. If you deliberately go to a red country then i guess you know what you’re in for but if you’re in one and they change it with just a few days notice how can anyone be expected to stump up that sort of money? Why is it any safer than quarantine at home?

Just looked into it further, £2300 for first adult, £1430 for second and £325 for kids 5-12 so would cost us nearly £4K. Still absolutely scandalous. It was a £10k fine for no hotel quarantine

You pays your money you take your chance. Anyone going abroad for a holiday should know they are taking a gamble and makes me laugh those grumbling about having to rush back. We all want to travel but if you want to take the risk don’t bleat about ‘unforeseen’ consequences when there is so much evidence of things changing at v short notice.

Don’t agree with the hotels thing as seems a farce.

A lot of people are in a similar situation to us though. Booked a holiday pre covid, can’t get a refund but can get a free change to a new date and location. We are now on the 4th time of rescheduling our holiday, we were meant to be going to Crete next week but Mrs got Covid so pushed it back to Mexico in October which is now red list. Obviously we will move it yet again if things stay the same. It’s all very well to say you know the risk but What are you meant to do just write it off and walk away from the money? If you go to a red country I get it, you know what the circumstances are but to change it while people are there and expect them to find thousands for a ridiculous rule when it’s no safer in a hotel as it is at home Is a disgrace. What happens if you can’t afford it?

It’s not as though these random changes are an act of God though, is it? The changes in a country’s status are down to the whims of incompetents in which logical thinking takes no part.

Last August we came back from France and had to quarantine at home for two weeks. Our daughter and her family who had been with us were caught by the sudden introduction of restrictions by less than 24 hours and had to do the same. Yet we had been in a region of France that had only had three infections in total up to that point.

What have we done so wrong that we deserve this shower of wet drips in charge?

[Lighthouse]

I don't get why there is anyone in these quarantine hotels. The rule applies if you've been in a red list country in the last ten days, for which the quarantine is also ten days. So why not fly from the red list country to somewhere else on the amber/green list who will let you in and stay there for ten days? £2,300 would cover your flights and a pretty awesome hotel, depending on where you go.
