Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin are excellent in The Kominsky Method

He threatened to put me in hospital in a previous post and then denied it.
 
The thing is, he knows he did it and I know he did it. Any denials are irrelevant.
 
He thinks he’s a hard man and threatens folk online. He’s a sad pathetic loser. And a cowardly liar.

The only thing exponential was the amount he was out day on day. 
 

Yet our Chairman who thought reconstruction baulked at the thought once the financial implications hit home.

FFS... If we want to save football as a competitive sport... We need to be prepared to take a hit.

Watched a good series on Netflix- How to Fix a Drug Scandal.  Really interesting story. 

Got the usual junk mail from my postman today, and my sympathy for him for having to deliver this shit to everybody door.
dfs, the joy of spring sale booklet offering the best spring offers       
Best was a leaflet from a Neil Bibby Labour MSP (aye, never heard of him either) with the usual crap in it. 
RAH bed slashed.
More RAH car parking needed.
School spending down.
Council cuts.
Cleaning up Renfrewshire.
Scotland loses out on thousands of green jobs.
Standing up for pubs.
Standing up for Scotland Passengers.
Standing up for Families.
Also Standing up for Workers, Local Business, Communities, Students, Veterans and Pensioners. 
Reckon he needs to buy a sofa from dfs to avoid all this standing up he is doing   
 
 

The areas that I've highlighted are hugely salient points.
This lockdown is unprecedented, and, as such, there will have been no studies that can predict its effects on, say for example, cardiovascular health.
The potential for a significant increase in deaths due to cardiovascular health deterioration as a result of someone working from home sitting on their arse for three months, who is unable to be active at work or attend a gym regularly, is clear and present.
Of course people can go for a walk, as I try to do every day. That's not the same as being on your feet all day or attending a gym regularly. Others will have their exercise regime restricted by child care etc.
Six months down the line if someone dies of cardiovascular disease, where the lockdown has been a contributing factor, then would it even be possible to ascertain whether the lockdown was a contributing factor?
Similarly, the lockdown may be enough to cause further deterioration to the health of someone with specific mental health issues. Worst case scenario being an increase in suicides.
Deaths from cardiovascular disease and suicides largely go unreported, and are often accepted as run of the mill, possibly due to pre-conceived, stereotypical views on the type of individual assumed to be most likely to succumb to these illnesses. There's also the possibility that they will increase gradually, so the general public probably wouldn't be aware that anything different was happening.
For these reasons, I doubt we'll ever really be able to measure reliably the impact of the lockdown on overall health.
As much as I agree with the principles behind the lockdown, I really, really hope that we haven't overreacted, based on inaccurate recording of data, and that we haven't created a ticking time bomb in the future.
It's certainly food for thought.

All my thanks to McHargs the Bakers for being open all week. An absolute godsend. 
Also, found an open Chinese Takeaway last night. 
Had a wonderful supper. 
Thanks to Yulan House. 
So, getting a bit of work done and getting well fed. 
Nearly a normal week. 

Aren't season tickets and other revenue streams to keep a club alive? 
If you think it's a good idea, start it up. 

Apology accepted, don't do it again ya fud. 😉

He was already in intensive care for heart failure.

FFS Stu, why? 
I did think you had a lot of "relations" in key positions, now that's looking like you made it up.
Never mind, I'm just off the phone to the queen, she's fine. 
 

He got his stupid answer in relation to his fecking stupid question. 
Maybe prefer Sago with chicken than custard.

All Football Clubs get enough of our money.
No more presently.
FECKEM

I found this report on the BBC to be a little alarming, to be honest:
 
Biblical eschatology does predict a time where we will all receive the 'mark of the beast' in order to buy and sell. My belief is it's likely to take the form of a microchip (not the McCain's variety @shull ), which will be implanted. It also indicates there will be very few believers during that time, and that people will be sinful (ubiquitous profanity, blasphemy and vulgarity?) and materialistic. Then of course there are wars, pestilence and famine. Fun times!!!

We know. 

Is it here  ?
Or is this presently a test,  a wee trial  ?
Will we end up with no freedoms ?
 
A Pharmacist phoned up Radio 5Live yesterday complaining there was still too many Cars on the road making non essential journeys. The presenter agreed with him.
How did they both know the reasons folk were driving their vehicles  ?
It's shite propaganda like this that will get every decent member of the public banned from driving.

He forecast 600-700 for tomorrow in a reply to one of my posts.

Didn’t realise he was just posting random numbers.

Makes sense

I'd see that as a challenge! I'd go back wearing a disguise.

Oaky was forecasting 600-700 by tomorrow, I was forecasting in excess of 500.
 
His forecast may well be bang on.
 
As you mentioned though, it’s meaningless.
 
60,000 people with the common cold die each year, which of course is meaningless.
 
Strangely, TPAFTWAT appeared to think that people dying with the cold wasn’t meaningless?
 
Shows lack of intelligence.
 
The real figures to watch are excess mortality
 
It’s very early days but excess mortality in England & Wales this year is currently negative.
 
In other words, less people have died than usually do.
 
Need to see how this rises.

Co-oP Supermarket have arrived just in time to save lives and protect the NHS. 
The Branch in Cardonald have limited customers to... 
ONE VISIT TO THEIR SHOP PER DAY. 
Ha ha ha ha halfwits.

She's stressing it's not as simple as some imagine to get the testing kits. Also indicating it's not the be all and end all. 
Funny the Scottish government aren't getting the same grief the UK government are in this issue.
🤔🤔🤔
