Was in a boozer last night over here ( a pub I actually like ) Irish guy singing and a wee bit of chat and a laugh.

He was speaking to folk in the audience and ripping the piss until he got to 3 women who were nurses.....try and remember exactly quote....." The hero s of COVID, Remember when we used to clap for nurses why did we stop doing that ".....audience starts stomping and cheering.......they were 3 mental health nurses from Scotland.....if I mind right all these services were shut Doon during COVID.

It's a ****ing joke what people believe.

Just as an aside they were about 65 stone between the 3 of them......dinnae think they need food banks.
