Involving a coastal erection and a big light?

I had plenty planned last year but understandably nothing this year.

I'm still clinging on to the small hope I have of getting abroad somewhere before the summer is out. But only if it's safe to do so.

Fact is, nobody truly knows what stage we're going to be at with case numbers and vaccinations by any stage of the rest of year. Play by ear unfortunately...

Had a trip abroad booked last Easter that was then postponed until September and then cancelled.

Not booking this year due to ongoing pandemic concerns and the fact I don't know if I'm working tomorrow never mind what's happening later in the year.

It's more of a hoping than a planing to see my family this summer.

By the European speed of vaccination it might more of a skiing holiday next winter.

In my opinion it is those who are willing to take unnecessary trips that are the one perpetuating covid-19. The sooner the Government bring in mandatory quarantine for the travelling muppets the better, I say, and they should be charged handsomely for it too.

It should be none of your or anybody's else business.

You are the muppet who believes that this is a deadly virus

People know how to take care of themselves and dont need stupid governments to control their lives. Simple.

We all have opinions and nobody said we must agree with them. I believe we have been born as a free people and it is nobody's business to tell us what to do.

There are rules we follow as civilised people but abusing all the nations around the globe, telling them lies, lock them is against human rights.

Yes, without a doubt. I’m a responsible person working from home since last March and I meet just my housemate everyday and the odd date.

I went abroad last year and got a negative test before.

If anyone wants to judge me then I challenge them to compare how many we each are coming into contact with on a daily basis. I know who would come out less risky.

Nothing to do with governments bullying their citizens learn from history preceding each lock down has being mass movements of people

Lockdown one: Italian skiing trips' six nations match cancelled yet fans allowed to travel

Lockdown two: midterm break travel

Lockdown three: christmas returnees english variant is now 70% of infections detected in Ireland

Rather than treating the symptoms we need to get rid of the cause and that includes health checks at the border between north and south eliminating unnecessary travel.once numbers decline

Getting school,restaurants, sports and local economies going returning freedom to socialise and mix freely within out boarders. Vaccinations will play a part but only when we are sure its working to suppress the virus.

101 dead today including a 19 year old to those that think ur freedom is being taken away I hope u never become a part of this statistic for it will not just be a inconvenience to you it will be final.

that's the reason why some are doing things like this. they're not prepared to stall life any longer and it's like what I said earlier. you will never get everybody doing the one thing. I bet their is house sessions every weekend somewhere.

Everyone needs to gauge their own situation in terms of their contacts and risk they’re causing. So while you may be indirectly taking a jibe at me, I’d be very surprised at you having less contacts then me even me going on a solo holiday.

So I reject your assertion that the likes of someone in my case going away and getting tested on a solo hol and working from home with one housemate and maybe seeing 2 others in a month are happy to be putting people at risk of death any more than yourself

You speak with no nuance

Also I’m not crying about freedoms being taken away. If you saw most of my comments in relation to the pandemic you’d know that.

Lots of people have differing levels of freedom this past year and I make my decisions on a rational risk assessment.

While not taking a jibe at anyone individual I do feel if u travel u must isolate for fourteen days at your own expense at a secure location on your return with two negative tests, as we know it can take up to fourteen days to become symptomatic if u do so at all it appears that 50% can be asymptomatic

I won’t be travelling probably until it’s safe enough that there is no text required to co é back into the country and most likely until a country I want to go to is safe enough that the aren’t testing either.

Guidelines at the moment unless ur travelling from brazil or SA u can isolate at home under ur own supervision this we all know is not being adhered to , what i am suggesting is that tighter restrictions are placed on travelers returning or incoming and as the numbers reduce those restrictions lightened on those of us who have done the time not unlike ur self as u have stated

That’s it yea. I’m not here to get into an argument. And going by current guidelines in doing everything completely within them right now. And will continue to do so when I travel abroad for holidays this year.

As regards what the restrictions should be, that’s not my call but I’ll go by them whatever they are as I have so far. I kind of wouldn’t mind mandatory 14 day isolation coming in myself or even say 10-14 days.

But until/if that comes in then I’ll holiday according to what the current guidelines are while taking into account I’m basically seeing the same 2-5 people a month - inclusive of work, family, friends, housemates and dates.

For me a little holiday abroad for freedom of movement and basically isolating elsewhere with a change of scene on top of these contacts is pretty damn good behaviour in my opinion

Holidays abroad should be put on the back burner this year and I'd even say internal travel limited

Let's get this right here then look to next year with a clean slate and everyone vaccinated

Then Gov should look to sort out all those working in the airline / airport industry until then

Not at all. What has become abundantly clear since March 2020 is that despite guidelines being made public and virtually reinforced at every opportunity in ads and in the media ans by the government is that people can not be trusted to gauge their own situation and act accordingly. That was tried, that failed and we are where we are today.

You reject what you want but if youd lived in Wuhan last year when they "locked down" you wouldn't have been rejecting anything you'd be doing as you were told or you'd chucked in a Chinese prison. And guess what? Theyre almost life is almost back to normal pre covid. Another western whinger gurning about his rights and entitlements at the expense of the financial implications of a pandemic and the cost of human life.

I'm sick of this bullshit and how hard people are getting it because they can't get a holiday in the sun. I also couldn't give a fuck about the aviation industry and their pleas to be bailed out. Its business, no one gets the arm in any quicker and I speak from experience having had to commute by flying for 6 years. Rub it up them!

What has become abundantly clear since March 2020 is that despite guidelines being made public and virtually reinforced at every opportunity in ads and in the media ans by the government is that people can not be trusted to gauge their own situation and act accordingly. That was tried, that failed and we are where we are today.

You reject what you want but if youd lived in Wuhan last year when they "locked down" you wouldn't have been rejecting anything you'd be doing as you were told or you'd chucked in a Chinese prison. And guess what? Theyre almost life is almost back to normal pre covid. Another western whinger gurning about his rights and entitlements at the expense of the financial implications of a pandemic and the cost of human life.

I'm sick of this bullshit and how hard people are getting it because they can't get a holiday in the sun. I also couldn't give a fuck about the aviation industry and their pleas to be bailed out. Its business, no one gets the arm in any quicker and I speak from experience having had to commute by flying for 6 years. Rub it up them! "

I don't think its just people "can't get a holiday in the sun". its people cannot go along and live a normal life and do normal things. thats not the biggest problem though. the biggest one is there is no end in sight. alot of people are struggling massively. im getting by OK (have other stuff concerning me at the moment) but we're living in a shit show. I just hope we get some easement and a few things back come march the 5th and maybe some enjoyment come summer. to through a spanner in the works though. imagine none of the vaccines fully working. you're up some shifts creek then.

"Nothing to do with governments bullying their citizens learn from history preceding each lock down has being mass movements of people

Lockdown one: Italian skiing trips' six nations match cancelled yet fans allowed to travel

Lockdown two: midterm break travel

Lockdown three: christmas returnees english variant is now 70% of infections detected in Ireland

Rather than treating the symptoms we need to get rid of the cause and that includes health checks at the border between north and south eliminating unnecessary travel.once numbers decline

Getting school,restaurants, sports and local economies going returning freedom to socialise and mix freely within out boarders. Vaccinations will play a part but only when we are sure its working to suppress the virus.

101 dead today including a 19 year old to those that think ur freedom is being taken away I hope u never become a part of this statistic for it will not just be a inconvenience to you it will be final.

No desire to travel abroad until I know theres no way Ill impact anyones health or livelihood

Everyone needs to gauge their own situation in terms of their contacts and risk they’re causing. So while you may be indirectly taking a jibe at me, I’d be very surprised at you having less contacts then me even me going on a solo holiday.

So I reject your assertion that the likes of someone in my case going away and getting tested on a solo hol and working from home with one housemate and maybe seeing 2 others in a month are happy to be putting people at risk of death any more than yourself

I didn’t say anywhere I’ve had it hard buster. LOL. I only said I’ve stuck to any restrictions imposed and will be basing my own decision on my own conscience. If you feel you can somersault your way into my head to check that then you’re a talented guy lol

Also, small but important note: we’re in Ireland not Wuhan. So that IF might as well be in your BUTT (pun Totes Intended)

Sorry to hear you’re sick. Get well soon and maybe isolate, Mr Big Tough Scawy Hard Man.

Your reply was mucho enjoyed
