Vaccine for the UK from next week. https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-uk-approves-use-of-pfizers-coronavirus-vaccine-12148786

Great news, very welcome development. One more step closer to the end of this constant depression.

The Gym, Newry going with the all publicly is good publicity strategy.


Apologies if discussed elsewhere.

Saw a few videos doing the rounds.

Embarrassing.

Gym owners have been the biggest pukes of all during the pandemic.

Why is it that gym owners and PTs all seem to be philosophers too.  Those Newry videos would puke the life out of you.

They love playing the mental health card.

400+ cases up north today. Numbers not really reducing at all (too soon from current incarnation of lockdown I know but this time a few weeks ago cafes, restaurants and bars weren't open were they?).

Not surprising.  High streets, public transport etc is still packed, lockdown or not.

The big book of motivational quotes started them on the road to philosophical studies.

Where? I'm in belfast and rarely see a person on a bus and any time I've been in Belfast city centre there are very few about.

It has been a very long time since I have seen a packed bus.

They have a valid point in fairness.

Must be very hard for them to be in a business where the margins are fine enough as is, in a labour of love and half of them aren't getting what they should be getting on time from what I know. Was only a matter of time before some businesses started to strike back.

I'm talking about them going on and on and playing the mental card regarding their customers. I would suggest they don't give two hoots about their customers mental health.
