The human gallbladder is indeed a puzzle!
I'll have you know that the audit we did with not one but two client reps coming from Newcastle because their boomer company owner insisted on face to face meeting was totally right on the excel and pdf files I showed them cannot be sent over e-mail and explained through a zoom call :colbert:

Turns out a government that does as little as possible, as late as possible, and trying to lie and bluff their way through a pandemic as if it's another PR campaign leads to things getting worse not better. Hard to blame people for not acting "rationally" when the messaging is deliberately misleading (so we don't get mad at them... immediately) and they set dates and times knowing these types of rushes are going to happen (shifting the focus off them and onto the awful, disobedient public).

Also applies to Brexit.

I'm honestly suprised that they stopped "Operation RIP Your Nan" like 5 days before.

While a grain platform can be used for corn, a specialized corn head is ordinarily used instead.

Lol what prompted this was after grandad died grandma went on a shopping spree which my mother thought was “wasteful” and returned most of her new stuff so grandma went “well you ant getting a penny then you miserly witch” and emptied her bank account and cutting her own kids out.

Classy.

My aunt's neighbour died and left 5% to each of her grandkids and split the rest between her two daughters. One of them hasn't got any children and so is going to court demanding she gets a full 50% before they get anything.

We had already made the choice to stay at home just last week, so we've been through all that sad part, and I feel a bit vindicated for calling it if I am going to be honest.

Anyway stuck this up in our window today. Same to you guys.

We were going to family, but now it will just be a nuclear christmas. I went to Aldi last night at 9pm to get Christmas supplies, as we have nothing in - completely dead. No one else there. The staff were as surprised as us - I was expecting people to be going to get emergency turkey and pigs in blankets! Perhaps everyone who wasn't already prepared was just getting pissed/scrambling to drive now. I filled up a trolley with food and drink to cover Christmas, NYE and brexit.

Gutted to not to see family, but Goon Christmas Discord is now a thing I can experience for myself. And I bought myself a few bottles of wine.

HBO did a good 8 part docuseries on NXIVM, that hosed up cult that branded women. It's called the vow and it's pretty good. Other than that the expanse has just started another series if you're into that or gently caress it watch 10 seasons of taskmaster

So, after last nights unexpected announcement..

My mum is due home from hospital for christmas, the original plan was to go & visit for a few days.
Now only 1 day is allowed.

I'm still planning on going for christmas day as she is looking forward to it.
I'm very low risk, I don't use public transport, am a key worker at my place, wear a mask & stuff.

The bit that worries me is we'll most likely end up having a few drinks so I'll have to stay the night.
My parents attitude is that it's not guaranteed she'll still be her next year so gently caress em!

I feel the same but would like another point of view.

I knew goons would knock some sense into the thinking..
She's suffering from advanced bowel cancer so next year will probably be a scrub.

But yeah! your absolutely right.. I'd struggle if I gave her covid & made sure next year can't happen.
