catmag 336 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 So that new baby I had about 5 minutes ago is a teenager next month. That’s weird. Other than that I’ve discovered I’m made of Teflon as I’ve managed to avoid COVID despite being elbows deep in it most nights for the last 2 years. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been out loads. I don’t get how I’ve got away with it tbh. My wife and two kids have both had it the last couple of weeks. I’m either unbelievably lucky, have had it already without realising or am about to come down with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a cold but kept doing lateral flows and they kept coming up negative. About ten days later I had to get a pre-departure PCR test to go to Amsterdam and the test came back positive but with CT levels so high that it would indicate an old infection so my cold was most likely covid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19770 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Covid knows better than to try to mess with my veggie-powered immune system. It took one look at my CT levels and thought fuck this for a game of chess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30332 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Everyone in my house has had it now except me and I didn’t even try and keep away from them. Apart from numerous LFTs, I’ve also had 2 PCRs since Xmas. So it seems unlikely I’ve had it (in the past few months at least). It’s weird like because someone I know had a similar experience with it being in their household on two separate occasions. They didn’t get it but eventually did recently. There must be lots of different factors from your immune system, the vaccines you’ve had, exposure to it previously etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6300 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I've been handed an FA misconduct charge (Failed to ensure my players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion) and the missus and I split up - all within the last 24hrs. On the plus side at least it happened before Valentine's Day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6300 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 The FA are fucking arseholes BTW. One of my lads was racially abused by the players and coaching staff of the other team and was told he was told he was going to get stabbed and his mum raped. I obviously reported this but because the referee reported a 'bit of jostling / pushing' (his words) which was no more than handbags, I'm up on a misconduct charge! I now wish I'd let the lad go fucking lump him, at least the charge would have seemed worthwhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
