Empty.

Wee Nicky Krankie is apparently someone to take notice of. Basically a dictator. But who even notices or cares?

Funny that.

Here's laughing at you!

To be fair that’s a bit like saying when there’s nobody around in the forest the branches don’t make a noise when they fall

Covid didnt kill the Edinburgh Hogmanay party, Nicola did

[user104658]

To be fair, the Edinburgh Hogmanay street party is a ****ing nightmare. Honestly. Anyone who would voluntarily go to it a second time after experiencing it once was either too smacked off their tits to remember their first time, or some sort of sociopath.

Its horrific, but you have to do it once

We hatched a plan at New Year 2020 to get a hotel room with a view of the castle for New Year 2021 so that we could watch the fireworks etc. from the warmth and peace of our room.

But then Covid happened.

Last night I’d have been happy with Jackie Bird counting down and then a tune from KT Tunstall but instead I got a couple of footballers awkwardly talking pish on a Zoom call and then two truly awful songs from Texas and Emeli Sande. And the countdown was LATE. A bit depressing but the Twitter commentary on it was on point at least.

i don't think omicron is at the cold level, without vaccination and boosters we would be pretty much still stuffed. A common cold doesnt tend to put people in hospital, where omicron does. So it is still a concern. 2 years down the line though, its not the same as the original variant that hit and for that we should be at least a little relieved, we also have vaccines, testing and antivirals, which puts us in a much better position to deal with it. We are going to have some bumps along the way. What we have now is disagreement on how we handle those bumps and what we think is acceptable pressure on the NHS. It's a different perspective from where we were in early 2020

I'd like to know the priority of NHS overload versus mental health/catastrophic damage to business/livilhood

Oh wait there isn't any

Guess why

The politicians get the blame for the former
