Me & Mrs T booked in for the booster at 2pm this Sunday at Killingworth im just wondering will there be separate queues for appointments & walk ins. Just so we know wether to take a blanket for myself being in the wheelchair

Pre recorded so he doesn't have to answer any awkward questions

Its a hell of a gamble give cases of Omicron are probably doubling every 36 hours now

Bastard Johnson to address the nation at 8pm regarding boosters. We've gone from 2 to 3,137 cases of Omicron in the UK in 14 days. We're due an update on the current restrictions in 6 days time 18th. The way things are going i reckon we'll be as near to a full Lockdown without actually calling it that.

Covid: UK alert level raised to four due to Omicron

We need to use whatever budget there is in January to buy a new defence. With 34 goals against we have the worst defence in the league.

Cheers mate we all feel pretty helpless being so far away we're going to arrange some nice food to be sent around for them later today

Thats ok I'm not his biological dad. But I've been his dad for nearly 30 years he's 35 now

Update from Norwich, my grandson is feeling a lot better today. But my daughter in law said she's woke up with a massive headache & a very sore throat. She's got a test booked for 12 today. I feel so sorry for her having to isolate with her 3 young sons. She's a good kid & will do anything for those boys. Oh & by the way my son is a total dickhead

Just had news that one of my grandsons in Norwich has Omicron he's 9. Apparently our daughter in law was told the cheerful news that everyone in the household will probably get it now. I wish the fucking thing would just piss off now.

The Guardian has seen a document from the UK Health and Security Agency (UKHSA) to Mr Javid saying that 'stringent national measures' must be imposed by December 18 and would resemble something close to another lockdown. The UKHSA said that if measures aren't imposed the number of people being admitted to hospital with Covid will put the NHS under too much pressure.

Aye that'll be me as well, go with Mrs T this week to get the grandson to school. When he breaks up on Friday get the doors locked & bolted

On a lighter note. Its amazing how not so long ago if you walked into a bank wearing a mask you'd probably get arrested. Yet now the insist you wear one 🤣

All my kids are grown up & jabbed etc so we're not too worried about them although I'll be reminding them to make sure they get a booster. Its the grandkids, none of them have been jabbed they range in age from 11 to 2. Obviously we want to see them but the worry is them all going to diffent schools. We now try & stagger everyone coming as well, its not ideal but its the only way we can do it. Hopefully there'll be some improvement in the situation soon & we can try & get back to some normality whatever that is

No doubt these conversations are happening all over the country. Some people just don't get the seriousness of the situation we're in. Just reading Omicron will be the dominant strain in the UK by next week. Its crazyhow fast its spreading.

Anyone going to the Liverpool match., by the looks of things your going to need your vaccine passport to get in. It seems crazy thousands of people going to games this weekend up until Tuesday won't need the passport. Yet if you go to a game on Wednesday you will. What could possibly go wrong Further measures will be implemented at stadiums, concerts, and events from Wednesday, December 15, with vaccine passports becoming mandatory for those wishing to visit certain venues.

Theyre now saying double jabs are none effective against Omicron & triple jabs give you up to 70% protection

Itll be interesting to see what the traffic on the A1 will be like on Monday morning when the work from home kicks in

The estimates of a million cases a day by New Year if cases keep doubling the way its doing is a scary prospect. The only way we're going to be able to try & stop this is by the booster jab & inevitably another Lockdown.

This Omicron strain is really rapid the UK has went from 2 cases on November 27th to 817 today December 9th. Thats a massive jump in 11 days.

Unbelievable Under Plan B, which was enacted by Boris Johnson on Wednesday, face coverings will become compulsory in most public indoor venues from Friday, including cinemas, theatres and places of worship, but not gyms, bars or restaurants. The PM on Wednesday said there was an exemption for singing.
