If you turn out be right I hope it at least results in more help being available for those that need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I added "national" to my original idea of "social timeout" (after discovering it already exists), I did wonder if anyone would comment on that. You didn't let me down, jonesy! I like @Lord BJ's "r reset", but would also suggest "r switch". Although I personally am supportive of Nicola, those who aren't would really enjoy that term as it probably reflects what they think of her anyway.

You wonder what the politicians thought would happen when the halls of residence opened up? Did they not see this coming? Even now, they're defending it saying they wanted students to have a "semblance of university life". You'll know better than me but I'm not sure "catching Covid" was one of the selling points in the prospectus . Hope you enjoy your pub lunch!. Remember the early 10pm closing😄 Just been browsing the prospectus and funnily enough no mention of viruses then imprisonment. managed to stay in boozer until just before ko, then home for some nice beers to watch us pump scumdee.
