The Fun Factory Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 So wonder how long these tiers will stay or get changed again? The last lot lasted about 2-3 months before failing? Personally I want 42 levels topped off by Mark King playing slap bass. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if they're reviewed before next Wednesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Staffordshire in very high alert, but when we come out of national lockdown we’ll be able to go to the gym and do some non-essential shopping that we can’t do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just on the vaccine sceptics thing, I’ve been having an ongoing battle with one of my mates who’s very much of the position “Well I won’t be going near the vaccine, it’s been rushed, side effects etc etc”. While this obviously isn’t good news for this particular vaccine, at the very least shouldn’t it go some way to dispel the notion that due diligence isn’t being carried out and therefore should a vaccine become ready, it’s cleared the required standards? I appreciate that at best that would only be a minor consolation and it probably wouldn’t appease many sceptics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
