The pubs are tip top. I second this. The pubs and restaurants that I have been in are class in tracking, cleaning and service. It's no surprise there hasn't been a spike in cafes & pubs, the employees are working solid to keep things clean and enforcing distancing etc. I've been very comfortable going out and felt very safe. Less can be said for the The Gym Group on Cathcart Road. Went on Monday, lasted half and hour then left and moved my membership; nothing to clean machines, no one wearing masks, no one enforcing masks, trainers not even masked up and half the machines were still not working correctly, despite them having months to get them in working order.

Punish the people who obey the rules, while the people who caused the spike will continue to break them. Nothing to do with Covid-19 though... Boom boom. Glasgow joke.

King prawn Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I can’t get my head around the stupid policies some organisations are putting into place. Caught a train yesterday where it was advised to arrive early. The train was at 21:15 and in the waiting area every seat except one had been taped off on the benches leaving dozens of people stood waiting for more than half an hour. Get on the train and the booking system had 8 passengers including myself sat next to each other in the aisles with half the carriages remaining empty ?! What’s the point in all of the stuff in the station if you’re then going to sit me 30cm away from a stranger for 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Governor Tarkin Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Just now, Brian Dundas said: Australia can be quite heavy handed and draconian in trying to protect its island environment, which is also peculiar as most law makers are decedents of immigrants. Anyway, agreed this kind of behaviour does not help the situation we are in at all. It's been a running joke for years that Australia is running a few decades behind the rest of the world.

Phage Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Makes me angry when I hear people moaning they have had their holiday cancelled. Some folks are literally queueing at food banks to survive. Folks losing jobs left right and centre. Business and whole industries absolutely crushed overnight. Families uncertain how they will pay the rent or their mortgage in the next few months. Years and decades of hard work and commitment to folks ventures and lost due to no fault of their own. So if you holiday gets cancelled and refunded, remember some folks dont know what they will eat next week or where they will live next month.
