National treasure Captain Sir Tom Moore, who died on Tuesday, caught Covid-19 at Bedford...

There was another article I read today where a son stopped his 93 yr old dad being taken into hospital and onto a covid ward because he had a temperature, he had collapsed with a urinary tract infection which in itself is enough to cause a temperature but protocols dictated that was enough to put him in a ward with confirmed covid cases. He subsequently recovered at home from the infection.

It was the same for me too, and I'm a little younger than you. There were two guys in our school year (of just over 200) who were properly overweight, and really no one else. And they've since slimmed right down as adults as far as I'm aware.

I just despair for their quality of life. If you take a hypothetical lad at 6ft tall, 20 years old. If he's of average build and healthy, he'd be about 75kg (12 stone ish). But so many at that height will be 95-100kg (15-16 stone). The only way I can imagine carrying around that sort of dead weight is to put my 6 year old on my shoulders. I sure as hell wouldn't want to be doing that 24/7.

A little younger !! only a week or two,,, The only place i have been in recent times and seen what we used to see back i the 80s/90s where most people are of a normal slim build was in the Scotish border town of Hawick, i went to Coldstream about 3 yrs ago to collect a old plough, as we was passing through Hawick on the return leg the sixth form collage was coming out and as we where sat there waiting the young lad sat at side of me said, there is some smart lass,s here and he was not wrong, there was, his next comment was, not many if any fatties here is there, But when you look at the landscape round there it dont supprise me at all as there is nothing flat at all,

Captain Tom raised well over £30million for the NHS and in return they gave him Covid.

You don’t !!. 
He’s outside in the fresh air let’s not even try and quantify the minuscule risk of catching anything. Call the police if you have saws stolen or a chipper lifted and I bet you will not get that speed or level of response.

Oslo area, Saturday 6th of February 2021: Another day in paradise (or also called Norway)! All these fools, Corona...

 

 

This Chinese virus has clearly been very well engineered.

Someone who's only crime is feeding the hungry in the middle of a pandemic is arrested yet you don't see the problem?

 

I give up!

I really don't envy the Police having to enforce the changing confusion of covid laws.

 

The Scottish government seem to be on TV permanently saying 'you may only go out for essential reasons, only essential business is open'.

Yet you'll see car showrooms and the like open, and recently the rise of horsebox coffee stalls, the one local to me regularly has groups of people at it, 100m from the Police station.

 

Must be difficult to keep up with what you are enforcing as an Officer.
