Begrudgingly well written piece. This bit sums up a few, only a few, on here. The leading large nation, far ahead of the US and, more gallingly for us frothing Remoaners, miles ahead of Europe. Nothing could be more depressing for the honest self-loathing liberal Brit. You know the type. Recycle assiduously but fly once a fortnight.

I know. It was a shit thing to do though.

Obviously all tongue in cheek.

You mentioned earlier that it was a shit thing to do, the fake account. 🤷♂️

That’s not true. Name names. If there’s nothing wrong done.

Really? He’s about as big as you. Do you have feelings? How’s lockdown affecting you? I’m sounding like a snowflake but the hypocrisy on here is cringing.

Obviously you don’t get it. You’re in the frame.

Whether it was funny or not isn’t the issue. You get that don’t you?

Obviously someone on here. Some odd people about.

This site was mainly East and West lower, now too many East and West upper. Not enough 8am at Piccadilly with 4 cans and too many Travel Club coachers with a Mars Bar and can of pop. Finally, more women. We need more women. They have more balls than most on here.

Todays Games
Caught the 36 bus from Bradford Road to Walkden to meet my son for a walk today. I didn’t need to, I wanted to for nostalgic reasons. Passed my old haunts in L/H. Uncle Toms Cabin, Seddon Street, Old Lane, etc. Half way down Kenyon Way, a young black lad got on in full Wanderers training gear. He had a coat over the top so not a full kit wanker. I’m fairly sure he was an academy player. I’m guessing he lodges down that way. In itself not a remarkable occurrence but one day, if he makes it, he will, like me, take that same journey to remember his roots.

It’s very difficult to compare. We have a far more culturally diverse society than the countries you mentioned (even Denmark) for many different reasons. I only made a comment because you thought others were better than us and your top ten comment.

Tolerant but not as tolerant as the U.K. That is my opinion by the way. Going back to my original comment, quoting a ‘top ten’ assumes some sort of definitive specification of tolerance. It doesn’t exist.

I’ve travelled a lot. I’ve never been to a country more tolerant than the U.K. I’d be interested to know which countries are above us in this top 10.

Decimalisation
Similarly, imperial measurements and metric. Like decimalisation, I was brought up with both. As an engineer, you had to be familiar with both units of measurement. I once took some drawings to the Czech Republic with imperial measurements for a quotation. They might as well have been hieroglyphics. What is 21” 7/16” asked the Czech estimator. I spent the night in a hotel converting to metric.

Coronavirus
The second wave started in August at the same time as the Eat out to help out. The second wave in Germany, France, Spain and the Czech Republic (I haven’t checked other countries) also started at the same time. Our government being criticised for not giving an end date to restrictions. None of the other countries are either. Because we are ahead with the vaccination programme we will probably come out sooner than most although not soon enough for some on here.
