All UK politicians deserve to be locked up! Data this morning on the news says omi is far less of a worry than delta. Sje has jumped the gun coz she is a little whoa

Sounds like someone ^^^ got the keys to a 1967 Morris 1100 (125000 miles, new clutch, rear sub-frame in need of attention) and not the keys to the pants of Miss Garlogie 1977 at a recent Westhill *cough* dinner party *cough*.

Thanks for your Christmas Spirit, which I didn't match as I was a greedy b@stard and applied for tickets but sadly even your generosity wasn't enough to get me a ticket. Red TV it is I guess.

Is it not too early to know if you've won a ticket or not? Today and tomorrow they are contacting the ballot winners.

Unfortunately not, there was an email that came out earlier today saying that everyone going to the Dundee game will be contacted today. They had previously said today and tomorrow when they were also talking about the sevco game but presumably they are no longer going to allocate sevco tickets at least until they have a better idea if we are getting a bigger crowd for the 19th Jan.

The chairman of Stenhousmuir, maroons, but not The Maroons, questions the restrictions applied to fitba whilst similar crowded activities carry on regardless. As I said somewhere else, many politicians were too busy building their bland, brown-nosing careers to attend fitba, yet still feel able to pontificate on it because those braindead ****s in Glasgow got the headlines for their selfish entitled actions when they won their first bauble in April, and the on-message, i-Pad-clutching, dullards elected to parliaments assumed that fitba was always like that.

The character Jessica Vaux (in Freya, by Anthony Quinn - the character based on Dame Rebecca West) “Of politicians on the left and right she is disdainful - ‘the imbecility is remarkable on both sides’ - yet she would never decline to vote. She talked a little of an admired older cousin who became a suffragette. ‘She was force-fed at Holloway for months and lost her health because of it - nearly lost her life. After what she and others went through I think it would be disrespectful - shameful actually - not to vote. But one does despair of the people we are obliged to elect.’”

Sturgeon almost bending over backwards to promise the egg chasing fans that they will get to Murrayfield in early February. Nothing to do with the embarrassment of the SRU threatening to play the game south of the border and having 50,000+ Scots trekking to somewhere like Manchester to watch the game of course.

We should hopefully be able to piggy back on the egg chasers and have full crowds for at least the St Mirren match onwards but no doubt will be stuck at 500 for the sevco and Edinburgh games or at best something like 25% stadium capacity

The Australian government have really trolled Djokovic by allowing him to fly all the way down there and then kicking him out a few hours later

More top trolling by the Aussies as instead of kicking him out immediately they will now make him stay 5 days in a crummy immigration hotel before telling him on Monday that he is still getting kicked out anyway

Scomo will cave on this.

He will blame the states, throw one of his colleagues under the bus and - when The Serbian leader threatens to cease beetroot supply - popular opinion will swing as Andrew Bolt scaremongers of foreign risk to the great Australian burger.

Djokovic will go on to win his tenth open and be offered citizenship, the order of Australia and a permanent position in the Hillsong gospel choir.

Sturgeon is making a complete arse of this.
She'll have to pack it in by spring.

Boris is a total **** but by the end of the month he's going to be hailed as the man who beat covid.
It's so far from the truth that I'll have to self combust but it's been clear from the start of this Omicron outbreak what was going to happen.

As it is, I have a lateral flow test booked for this afternoon, I expect to have to cancel it but who knows?

As for self isolating until day 2 PCR results are received, don't make me laugh.

My PCR test was attempted to be delivered yesterday, despite me still being in Budapest*, and what's more, they knew the dates I would be returning.
So apparently I have to pick it up from the Romanian shop on George Street.

I'll have to do that after I've self isolated on the bus from Edinburgh airport to Aberdeen will I?


* even the thought of restrictions being imposed to prevent travel into virus island are beyond ridiculous.
The other way round, fair enough.
Travel restrictions have been imposed to pander to ignorant public prejudice, people like to believe that they are far better than dirty foreigners.
