I like to kid on that I’m going to spend less time on here and having folk on ignore that I’m naturally drawn to arguing with is better for all us really. I usually read most of the posts anyway as today shows, I read all the replies earlier. Please don’t feel special guys I have about 60+ of you on ignore 😜, unfortunately there are some people you can’t do it with 🙈. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETTY29 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Seems like masking will no longer be mandated in England from 21 June. Looking forward to that although personally think I'll wear on public transport, supermarket until vaccine goes into BAU or earlier if it's confirmed if vaccinated you can't pass onto someone else. May move towards a decent face covering instead though. Going forward I'll consider wearing a cover in certain situations say I've a heavy, or even normal cold when out and about, again crowded situations. On not so good news, Indian variant starting to run throughout couple of towns in North West England and similar to Moray, accelerated vaccination seems to be best get out.

Higher percentage of 1-9 in Lothian, letters going missing and rejigging around vaccine supplies/policy changes were amongst the reason. Scotland is also handling the roll out slightly differently from down south. 12 minutes ago, The Real Maroonblood said: It’ll be imminent.

Pasquale for King Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 4 hours ago, Lord BJ said: It’s not really an effective strategy your employing, to spent less time on JKB and stop yourself arguing with others; as your demonstrating If your so triggered by over 60 people on a football message board, perhaps best you leave and/or reconsider why your are triggered so easily. Remember it’s a bit of fun. It’s not designed to raise your blood pressure in extreme. 🤷🏻♂️ Despite having 60+people on ignore your still choosing to be triggered, in pretty aggressive manner. Whilst still spending the same amount of time arguing and causing the problems you wanted to avoid. 😞 Making JKB an echo chamber is just furthering your issues tbh, as you, appear to, have become intolerant of alternate views. This isn’t dig at you, though I understand you will construe it as one, it’s just an observation of the success of your approach to change your JKB behaviours. You clearly recognise that it would benefit you to spend less time on here arguing and no, sensible person, wants to kid themselves on. Time to reconsider your approach and make JKB fun again, you’ll enjoy it more 👍 On COVID nhS England saying it will take 3-5 years to clear COVID backlog. That’s going to have some severe consequences for a lot of people over the next few years. Practically, I have no idea how you could address the issue in a meaningful or timeous manner. Good post, I’ve always been easily triggered in general. It depends on my mood really, happy and chilled just now. Like us all i need to do things that make me happy as opposed to angry and annoyed. I do enjoy myself on here most of the time and as life opens up again I’m sure I will spend less time on here. Win win for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England 83.75% of UK vaccinations (84.27% of UK population) Northern Ireland 2.77% (2.83%) Wales 5.22% (4.72%) Scotland 8.26% (8.18%) The above figures show that both Scotland and Wales are doing relatively better than England and Northern Ireland although the margins are small. (Wales' 0.5% advantage equates to around 260k doses - perhaps they are comfortable holding less in reserve). The reason for Scotland not as yet routinely issuing invites to under 40s, while England is booking appointments for 38s/39s, may well be due to a higher take up in Scotland among the priority groups. Scotland has still administered doses at a marginally higher rate than Endland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
