Just placemarking so I can find you all!

WouldBeGood · 08/03/2021 16:25

I do agree opening things would actually be much “safer”’now. A well organised pub lunch would be much better than everyone just going in and out if houses.

@rookiemere I was looking at an IKEA gazebo for similar purposes

Defo! Even with limited numbers it would also help businesses. I see uefa (sp) have spoke out against the government today. I will be gutted if we can't have the scotland games in the summer

rookiemere · 08/03/2021 16:40

Did you mean to tag me there @WouldBeGood ?

We have the chavvy sex pond and a ash cloud dispersing chiminea, but no gazebo as yet.

I asked DS if he wanted to do something for his second lockdown birthday like have some folks round in the garden, but he said he'd rather just have a KFC so there we go.

Place marking

Nipoleonthenoncommital · 08/03/2021 17:04

Placemarking too. I'm fed up with this shit now, although only 4 more days of home school left. Tfft

Woohoo. New thread. Thank you.

Excellent news about more vaccination appointments. I heard of two people I know today too (both older than me.) I really do appreciate how lucky I was to get mine when I did. I do wonder if the cancer I had 10 years ago was an accidental factor. They're not getting it out of my arm anyway.

Imagine being John Swinney, you invite yourself to your old school. But it seems quite quiet because Little Miss Groovee is determined to tell him where he is going wrong with education in front of the cameras they've organised a big trip to stop her going viral 😂😂

anon444877 · 08/03/2021 17:32

I have to find this Swinney footage!

WouldBeGood · 08/03/2021 17:38

My gazebo from IKEA post was in fact for @Lidlfix. Oops!

I’ve been eyeing one but was concerned might not withstand the Scottish summer.

What’s this, @Groovee?

WaxOnFeckOff · 08/03/2021 18:36

Yep @groovee, please spill. Hope you had a nice visit with MrG yesterday Smile

littlbrowndog · 08/03/2021 18:47

🙋‍♀️ Saw a bit of swinney.

Seems erm a bundle of laughs

icanboogieboogiewoogie · 08/03/2021 19:15

Yea, I think people are now voting with their feel when it comes to lockdown. I posted elsewhere that the buses are looking much busier than a week or so ago.

fandabbydoozy · 08/03/2021 20:32

name changer plonking arse down

Groovee · 08/03/2021 20:33

Well my kids went to our local catchment school... John Swinney went there many moons ago. He invited himself along with the press. Dd heard about it and put herself forward to put him in his place. She had been quite vocal about how crap he was as Education Secretary.

Alas dd was sent on a trip that day to keep her away from him 😂😂

Mr G 🤬🤬 is now in isolation due to a patient coming in during the night who then developed Covid symptoms. So they are a red zone until they know otherwise.

fandabbydoozy · 08/03/2021 20:34

has it been confirmed S1-3 are only getting half days?

Classic! But poor MrG, i've watched less complicated movies than his life at the moment.

Friend just had letter from school, her S1 getting a half day, half of that is PE and well being plus english and maths

WouldBeGood · 08/03/2021 20:45

@Groovee I love that about your dd!

But that’s total pants about MrGroovee - what a shambles

icanboogieboogiewoogie · 08/03/2021 20:53

I think S3 are getting more than S1 and 2 around our way. Not sure how much more though.

Groovee · 08/03/2021 21:03

I'm thinking I should sell our story of our life. Would make a great storyline. I'm ready to get off the rollercoaster and live quietly.

WaxOnFeckOff · 08/03/2021 21:10

@groovee, a romantic tale with a happy ending. 💐

WouldBeGood · 08/03/2021 21:14

I bet @Groovee 💐
