DHL. The tracker says the parcel was delayed after they attempted to deliver it last week. no one has been to the house and I didn't have a new delivery date. I requested delivery today and still nothing. Now the website tracker just says there's a delay.

Either they've lost it or its been damaged.

I'd take the virus over the Government, it's killed far fewer people and given me a legitimate excuse not to spend any time with my inlaws at Christmas.

People who should really just take 10, think then action things..... honestly this afternoon i did nothing but deal with shit that should never had even been a discussion. Now at the end of it, from being super prepared we are going to look like a idiots.....

Oh any people who start the shit ball rolling then bail out and expect others to deal with it..... NO MORE! Its hard enough as it is, without self inflicted crap. As you can tell this was hours and hours ago and it still winds me up! arghhhhhh.....

Soon be Christmas..... ;)

People, at work I hear a lot of crap from the passengers but today I must have heard 5 family groups with small children saying that they were on the way to see the kids grandparents. Then saying that tier 3 was all rubbish and not working anyway so why bother?

Then there's the mask exempt muppets who have a bad cough, won't cover their faces and insist on using buses to go in to town... I know some have genuine reasons for not wearing masks and have no problem with that, as long as they don't go in to crowded public areas while obviously ill even if you are wearing a mask... Coughing your ring out = stay at home (facepalm)

My brother has turned into a right Karen over face masks. He's got his like internet exemption pass on a lanyard. Face masks cause co2 poisoning and increase bacteria in your lungs.

I understand the premise of CO2 poisoning (although don't agree) but bacteria in the lungs? Use a clean mask and happy days.

Sorry you have a Karen in the family, Kwacky.

He's in Tier 3. So last Sunday he went to Tier 2 with his family for a carvery then went into Worcester to go shopping.

But he can't understand why the government keep going to lockdown when lockdown doesn't work (facepalm)

The big problem we've got this year is trying to keep him from trying to see my mum if she's home at Christmas. She's not got an effective immune system. Her husband is off work and self isolating just in case she can come home.

Facebook needs some moderation for stupid IMO.

It's like that magnum carter bloke innit, you know the one who said we could keep our shop open and ignore the government rules. He told me face masks where bad.

What's that quote about a lie travelling half way around the world before truth has got its shoes on?

It never ceases to amaze me that in this day and age when there's so much information at your fingertips people can't be arsed to fact check.

The weather! Has been raining non stop since I got the Thruxton

Quite a change from this time last year when fire was surrounding our area and we were all praying for rain!

Our Prime Minister. He has always been a twat who has spent his entire life bumbling and blustering his way through life. Now the entire country has to suffer because this inept excuse for a human is in charge.

Lord Heseltine on johnson "He said: “Well, I think that you have to see Boris as a career map. He works it out, he decides which way the wind is blowing, and that wonderful phrase about a politician - a man who waits to see the way the crowd is running and then dashes in front and says, ‘Follow me’.”

Count yourself lucky you have one day.

All my family is within a 15 mile radius, they are all in tier 2 we're in tier 4. Christmas is cancelled for us because the virus wouldn't dare cross into north Hampshire ..
