Fair enough. It's frustrating I know, but like a lot of natural disasters it shows we're not as in control as we sometimes like to think.
I know it's a microcosm, but I really feel for Alex, the landlord. He signed a five year lease just before this lot kicked off and he's bust a gut trying to improve everything about the place. This might finish him and the pub.
Yeah, I know a few people in the same position. In the long run, it's political suicide for any government to preside over long term depression or extensive unemployment so they will have to work to find a solution. Let's hope they can, because we can't avoid natural disasters, just learn how to deal with them.
Could have sworn you told us he signed the lease after lockdown had commenced? I recall questioning the logic of taking it on in questionable times
The pub trade was hard enough before all of this lot and it’s only the Govt assistance that’s saved much of it so far. Given he relies on wet trade he’s liable to be absolutely ****ed if these rumoured further restrictions come in.
It's a right ****ing mess. In brighter news, Kenny met his ma and pa and a brother and sister yesterday afternoon. It was mirthful chaos. the collective "Ahhhh" from the locals was heartwarming
Looks like mancland and Lancashire are going into lockdown very shortly. It would appear we'll all be following suit in the near future. ****ing hell
Seems Kenny the puppy is selective with his food. The unit gave him a much smaller version of my meal last night - smoked sea bass, mash and peas. Little ****er picked all the fish out of it and left the mash and peas
I was waiting for someone to drop me some blow off earlier. There was a knock at the door and when I opened it, there were two plastic bizzies there The first thing they said was "don't worry" About a week ago, I sent an email to the Principal of the nursery next door complaining about the excessive noise levels in the morning when parents drop their brats off and in the afternoon when they pick them up. ****s stand right outside my front door yapping and their brats are screaming. **** all social distancing going on either. It will be patrolled by a 'Covid Car' in future
He/she probably rang the plod and said "the creepy old pisshead next door keeps perving on our young mums"
