Just been watching an West Midlands ambulance service programme on 5. When the casualties were ringing in, I was saying "Listen to that accent, let them die".  ;D

Hoping to go to the Canaries in November. And technically an essential worker, so see what that does to quarantine... And if I have to self isolate, then it's because I have caught something ::)

Condoms are advisable and have a high efficacy rate against the clap and other STD's!  :y

Unless you're a bareback rider then it's advisable to self isolate in the event of a weepy willie!  ;D

If you do get away, car hire will be harder and more expensive.

At Malaga the companies sold off a lot of their fleets and reduced staff numbers due to lack of business.

I might hire something interesting for the day to drive up into the mountains, but hiring a car for the entire holiday only makes sense if you don't drink or are renting a Villa in the sticks.

Most places have cheap, reliable bus services and readily available affordable taxis.

I struggle to get a car from Enterprise in the UK within a sensible timeframe ;D

Obviously, they blame it on covid, though that's just an excuse to hide behind.

It does seem to be a convenient excuse for screwing consumers... Tescos, for example, have stopped cashback at regular checkouts, you have to go to customer service, an oxymoron if ever there was ::)

It's been a 'thing' for the last 18+ months, contingency policies ought to be as productive as 2019 by now, and if they aren't, then they obviously don't work >:(

I went to Eurocraprats to collect some parts a while back, and they had sent the wrong ones.
When I complained to the girl at the counter her reply was "Covid".
Mine was "What happened with all my previous orders over the last ten years then ?"  ::)
