Millionaire Subby director Usman Khushi has apologised for taking a private jet to hang out with Peggy Gou but hasn't said that he'll save the club himself, even though he totally could.

Yeah, we're okay, a little disappointed - Jen even had a job lined up (over in the other place) but they mailed her to say that they weren't going to be hiring her - it was "we want to offer you the job, we'll make it official by the end of the month" on the 5th of March, but obviously that's a decade ago by now.
It's possible that my words here could be taken out of context, which is that they got back in contact and (touch wood) we're moving up next month - unless Sturgeon does set up barricades on the main roads which, honestly, fair enough.

good luck with the move, Andrew.

are you moving to glasgow or the other place, AF? I lost track
jim otm - it's getting better...... slightly..... and slowly......... the cycle super highway that's the site of the altercation above is actually pretty good (though unfinished). they need to put stuff like that all over the city (only other stretch, which is also good tbf, is on sauchiehall st)

In the other place, I'm afraid - it's where Jen's job is, and it's also where my work's parent company (that I've been seconded to) has its main European office.

Today is a good day for my London-based Irish friends announcing their move north of the border - another mate of mine is due to rock up in Maryhill in a couple of weeks. Obviously allowing for barricades-on-the-border type shenanigans, but tbf, he's from Donegal, he's used to it.
Coming from London is about the only way to find drink prices acceptable in The Other Place, tbh.

I generally try to avoid posting anything just to shit on someone or something but there's a BBC Radio 4 Scotland evening topical comedy show, that consists of almost nothing but half assed jokes and fake laughter and you'd think it was made by people who didn't realize there is any other type of laughter. Like they've saw other people joking and laughing, didn't understand it but decided to mimic it on a radio show.

i guarantee you that whatever that show is gets better numbers than anything actually funny you have heard on bbc radio
― Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 29 August 2020 17:13 (three years ago) link
are you allowed/supposed to have tradesmen in your home? Tilers, plumbers etc. I'm doing work on someone's flat just now and will continue to do that (the owner has been away since before lockdown and won't be back for a few months) but was looking around for tilers, plumbers etc.
― Gerneten-flüken cake (jed_), Wednesday, 2 September 2020 11:49 (three years ago) link
Tradespeople and care providersWorkers can continue to go into other households to carry out work such as repairs, installations and deliveries.
Such visits should be subject to a risk assessment as well as ensuring that social distancing and correct wearing of masks is followed where appropriate.

I can get on my bus at Shawlands, ride it through East Ren and into East Kilbride, work 8 hrs in my shop with two colleagues as a few hundred strangers come through the door, get the same bus home and get food from Lidl on the way... but I can't have anyone sit in my front room. Hmm.

local lockdown is a total shiter: bidie in's sister has tickets to come up (from london) for a visit in a couple of weeks. now no longer happening of course - swear one of the worst things about this year is the lack of things to look forward to...

Feart to even make plans now tbh. Will this affect the 21st party onimo?
― stet, Wednesday, 2 September 2020 19:38 (three years ago) link
21st party is planned to be outdoors (15 people, 5 households), weather permitting. If the weather is bad there's no point even attempting anything as we're already a family of five over two households so we couldn't even allow e.g. girlfriends or grandparents under current guidelines.

I agree this looks like it makes no sense but it's down to most of those things being managed at reasonably low risk while bangers are having 20 man gaffs. It's not aimed at your responsible visitor, it's aimed at the bangers.
Thing is though, how does changing guidance affect people who ignore guidance? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've been to the pub once and a restaurant once but I've been at work full-time in a retail space since lockdown was eased. Based on what I've seen of the public and how they've behaved, it really does feel like most people don't care about this anymore. The prevailing attitude seems to be that if we all wear masks we don't need to be using sanitised or social distancing. Even the bus is a nightmare as people sit where they want and slide off their masks. I'm not convinced I'm going to be any safer by the end of house parties - the people who have already taken the risks are still able to get out and about, to come into my shop or whatever, and there's only so much you can do to make people behave responsibly. When people break the guidelines you can tell them off, ask them to back away etc, but the damage is already done and the threat of infection cannot be undone. It feels like closing the gate after the horse has bolted.

From two years ago but I hadn't heard about it and I'm sad to hear about it now. I didn't know this sort of thing was still going on but I have to wonder if attacking her for being a goth was just a cover for attacking a black person.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-44644067
