Are there still anthrax infected islands off the west coast of Scotland?

No, Gruinard Island was decontaminated years ago. It has a population of 0 so no one is brave enough to test the effectiveness of the decontamination!

Good news

1. I saw an ass and titty at midnight.

2. I'm finally going to go out with the cute neighbour I have had a crush on for most of this year. It's only for a coffee, but it's better than nothing.

3. I'm going to a festival this weekend!!!

Bad news

1.  I only saw the ass and titty, I could not touch the ass and titty.

2. I don't even like coffee.

3. I haven't done any shopping yet, I don't even have a tent.

We got our little ones school report. Academically she's doing fine but what I loved was that it said she's kind, thoughtful and includes everyone in stuff. 

Knowledge will come. Compassion, tolerance and kindness are so much more important right now

Heading to see Frank Turner in Clapham tonight; beyond excited for it and I feel like the opening of "I knew Prufock..." is going to be a hella emotional.

Hi Guy... was browsing through a few different threads today and stumbled across the one where you talk about the time you fell 50 foot of a cliff, refused medical attention and just went to the pub... really made me smile so thanks for that. Bet there was a little bit of poo in your pants that night though!

It's an incredible story. One could dine out for years telling that one.

Headed out up  the hills before six this morning to avoid the heat of the day and the horseflies! It was worth it, I felt on top of the world!

Indeed. Cracking 4 days chez HMV and Yeti with Mrs Q and my brother and his partner.  Had 2 weeks off so we made a conscious effort for the rest of it not to just do normal stuff, hence the absence.

It was a sensational gig, my body was not fit for moshing; struggling to walk today!

No Prufrock on the setlist though which was a bit of a disappointment and the Wall of Hugs for Photosynthesis has been killed by COVID.

I'm actually going in surprisingly cold.  Never seen him live, and despite falling in absolute love with positive songs I've never got round to listening to much of his catalogue. Doing some cramming tonight and tomorrow!

as my little thank you to the fantastic nhs staff i met around bristol, i've been in touch with glastonbury to ask if they're able to do somthing to help local nhs staff get tickets in future ticket sales, and they're going to look at what they can do! which is great. the main problem is that there won't be a sizable ticket sale for quite a while because of tickets being rolled over.

The £1600 bonus I'm getting in my July pay which was announced this morning is my good news for the day.

Our firm's way of thanking everyone for their hardwork through the pandemic.

You love to see it!

I refuse to confirm or deny that possibility.   Though why do you think I was out before the horse flies started biting😉

That's a fabulous idea Neil, lets hope that they can do something. Virtual upvote from me.

Glad to see that you're back home, hoping that the recovery continues to go well.
