Back to work tomorrow with the latest level of restrictions being lifted. Last time I did any was 23rd Dec. The longest Xmas holiday I've ever had!

This isn't my creation, but fits in with my ongoing RYM Satire remarks so well. This is about their new chart algorithm.

^ Bad news, I didn't see the figures today. From Monday the stay at home rule is suspended and next weekend is Easter with 2 bank holidays. If the weathers decent I can see popular seaside resorts getting flooded with visitors, even though very little will be open. Won't be surprised if case numbers go up significantly soon.

I don't see that happening for some time though. What the rule breakers are too dumb to realise is that they are the ones prolonging the need for lockdowns in the first place.
I'm really riled up with the rule breakers lately. So much casual stupidity going on around here and on a daily basis. First bit of sunshine we get and everyone's flocking out and flouting lockdown. Local park is now being patrolled by police (making their presence felt in the town for the first time in years) because of illegal gatherings taking place in public both in broad daylight and after hours when the park is locked up. I actually look forward to the shitty days now because that means the twits will (hopefully) stay indoors. Except the recent snow, because that made everyone with kids just go out trying to sledge in a nice cold virus friendly environment.

^ I think you're probably right. The day will come where we just won't consider locking down again. People are breaking the rules more and more because they've had enough and it'll only increase to the point where lockdowns will become a waste of time.

Honestly I think the best outcome we can reasonably hope for is that we'll talk about 'seasonal covid' same way as we do seasonal flu eventually.

I´ve smoked on and off for most of my adult life. I haven´t had a smoke since november 2019 though, so that´s something.

Being a driving instructor I haven't been allowed to work since Xmas. We're expecting to go back on 12th April subject to the government review on the 5th. If cases go up again, which is very likely with schools going back this week, we may get delayed which I won't be happy about. Some days I wonder if we'll ever get out of this, even with the vacine.

Good on you. Try to stick with it for as long as possible. I've been on and off vaporisers for about 7 years and always end up back on the cigarettes for a months at a time after saying "I'll just have one" but its now 4 months since my last. Cessation is incredibly hard. |

If it weren't for the fact they had kids w/ them I'd say let them do it.

Highest UK cases numbers today for almost two weeks. Schools not even back one. Oh boy.

Yeah, we're all good. It didn't come to much, but after the tsunamis in the Indian Ocean in 2004 and Japan in 2011, it's better to be safe than sorry. These alerts go out really quickly now, within a few minutes of a major quake anywhere.

Bloody hell. We get the odd rumble, especially when they were fracking rocks up the coast, but are pretty geologically dead. Hope everyone is okay.

It's been a bit of a mad arsed day today. Overnight, there were three big fucking earthquakes out in the Pacific - a 7.1, a 7.4, and an 8.1! We've been on tsunami alert for much of the day. We are in what's called the orange zone (not as close to the sea as the red zone). We're 6 km from the coast, but we're only 400 m from a coastal lake (it used to be an estuary but now has to be physically dug open to the sea), and 10 metres above sea level.
Anyway, I didn't feel any of the quakes because we're on a silty soil which acts like a shock absorber. One of my workmates lives in the caldera of an extinct volcano, which is solid rock, and the first quake woke him up and scared him shitless (he's originally from Scotland - not used to quakes like us natives). Several areas of the North Island were evacuated as a tsunami precaution, and most people were quite sensible about it. However, some dickheads went out surfing or kayaking or even swimming with their kids at the beach. Just plain dumb. Here's a video of one of the tsunami waves surging into a marina. Sorry, I can't find anything on YouTube, so it's a Reddit link. |
