Not something I was aware of...

Stephen Nolan harassing people not wearing a mask in a garage forecourt. Seeing a thread on twitter about the garage giving him permission so a lot of ones saying they'll be boycotting

I assume Nolan didnt tell the garage what he was actually doing and only asked if he could use the premises for filming.

Whatever of the garage/permission or your opinion of big Nolan, the mask issue needed highlighting. It obviously led to new legislation, so that is a good thing.

Maybe he forgot it ? Has happened to me a few times. Maybe the fella is exempt

So no surprise that half of clusters identified in the North traced to hospitality settings

What's the American obsession with masks? In instances where they serve little purpose. Now I understand you wear them when you are in close contact with people if you can't socially distance.

Some politician was giving some sort of outdoor briefing to press the other day and he wasn't close to any reporters yet people were going mental on Twitter because he was maskless. Is it just wear a mask at all times and never worry about social distancing ?

Cam and the Chiefs' practice squad QB test positive. Pat @ Chiefs provisionally rescheduled for Monday or Tuesday but big question mark over that I guess with what happened the titans and Steelers.

Season could be down the shitter at this rate, doubt the season finishes on time if it does conclude

You can check online, they have prob already give u another extension

All Im seeing is that MOT's are currently suspended.......

You can check when your car is due tax/mot by putting in registration. This is where I've seen my MOT date moved back twice. Google "check car tax" or something.

I think this is what redzone means?

Yeah after checking that they have pushed mine on until April 21

When do they stop pushing the MOT's back?
My wagon is up for MOT in December - I wonder will they be back up and running full steam at that stage or will there still be a backlog?

I would say you will be extended, mine was due late October

Great news. Very hard for the world of work to get back to any sort of normality unless children are at school.

I don't agree. At a time when the R number is rising, they are sending all kids to school with no social distancing after previously saying they wouldn't do this.

However, it's not school as normal. Staggered start and end times, staggered lunches, class bubbles for some years and not for others.
My wife is a teacher and they have been told if a single child in a class has a temperature, the entire class is sent home to isolate. That means the families of each of those children and teacher must isolate. It won't be long until everyone is at home in isolation as we're coming into winter flu time. Kids always pick up bugs on return to school in September so even a sore throat will mean isolation for a class.
This won't help people get to work, it will make it impossible to be able to consistently go to work imo.

Would that child not just get tested ?

I couldn't believe how bad his tv show was. Only watched one but dunno if there was more.

He has a decent Twitter following which seems to count for a lot these days

Paddy Raff... if Jamie Bryson gets his way lol
That's no great loss.

His TV stuff is middling but the stuff on LAD was first class.
It's not middling. It's utter shite.

Yep total shite, LAD & his current "comedy"

watched the first three seasons of 'Animal Kingdom' on Prime. Loved it

The film is far superior to this series.

The film is great

Yeah some gobshites about, he was killed by the UVF etc etc. People don't know so they just make it up. Even though the police have said there are no immediate signs of fouls play I have seen people saying they don't believe this  ???
