@ Belker - I know you went a bit mental the last time but would you not park up for a few weeks?  The virus is out of control in Cork and the rest of the country.  CUH is effectively closed and 100 nurses are out sick.  Cork is not a place to get sick at the moment!

Apart from drug runs, I can't imagine who would want a taxi at the moment (enough to make a weekly wage). 

NPHET is begging people to stay at home & work from home.  The teachers are putting their foot down and want the schools to stay closed.  Hospital and ICU admissions have doubled in a week and are likely to double or treble in another week.  The next two weeks are ones in which we all should just write off and stay home.
Firstly Thank you fer your concern Watty, much appreciated.
I really don't know what to do at the moment, it's Monday morning now and I will happily Sleep and Drink through today and tomorrow, but come Wednesday and the itch to get back out to work will sit in with me, I might make it through Wednesday or even Thursday at a big push, but come Friday I need to be outta de house and on the street.


park up the taxi and drive for DPD for a couple of months? it would get you out of the house and lower your risk of getting covid.

Ken First stay safe .What you are seeing is what it was like in Dublin .Our kid was contacted by a Teacher in the school cold calling to see how parents are fixed as the Teachers Union are considering refusing to return to work remember where you read that first .Teachers are pissed off that they are not being protected from Septic Rugrats .They are annoyed that if a Parent gets the Lurgy they are not informed and the Child can still attend School as there is no rule that says CHILDREN must isolate if they are a close contacts. As you know I dont understand all the contradictions .Numbers for Covid deaths are bollox they are for people who died while infected with Covid not that they ACTUALLY DIED of Covid .Same bolloxology for Cases .They are for the number of POSITIVE TESTS not people SUFFERING from Covid as a lot of people have no symptoms .There is HUGE dishonesty going on here The Hospitals are NOT overcrowded Just look back at the figures from two or three years ago how many people were on trollies or sleeping in corridors and how many there are now .Ken there is an Annual Flu cycle the Flu they got in the Southren Hemisphere last year is normally the one we Vaccinate for in the Northerner Hemisphere this year.

Occi What got out of a china Lab ?Look at the ACTUAL figures for deaths last year world wide there are seven billion people on earth the death rate for last year was only a million or two more than the year before .Here is a contradiction that explains some of it .People are living longer so there are more old people if there is a strong flu or extra cold or extra hot weather they suffer more deaths than young people that is a fact .Conspiracy theory is being exploited here .This PANDEMIC is so HUGE there must be a hidden cause other than its a fucking flu virus .If a Volcano blew up and killed ten Million people everybody would accept it because we can see a volcano but because we cannot see a virus because its to small we need to believe that there is more to it to balance the scale of cause and effect .ITS AN ECONOMIC STIMILUS .If it was really thought China had created this then the Nutjobs in the USA would at least impose trade barriers on China .In two months two days two hours two minutes and two seconds of this virus being discovered they had a Vaccine yet Malaria kills tens of Millions of People every year mostly non economic shitting and eating air breathing units in Africa or Asia and they dont spend as much money on Malaria virus research per year as Donny T spent on his re election Campaign .This fucking thing is no more real than the Supoerstars of Wrestling . FOLLOW THE MONEY .Why are governments in the West handing out Trillions of Monies ?It is simple to expand their economies and inflate away debt .

Here is an example DONT BOTHER READING IT ..The Irish Government is set to borrow around €4bn this week and will open the European bond market for new deals.

The National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) has mandated Bank of America, Davy, Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley and Nomura as joint lead managers for a new 10 year bond that will be issued through a syndication structure to investors.

The bonds due in 2031 are expected to be launched and priced as early as Tuesday. It will be the first bond deal by any Euro area sovereign borrower this year.

Market sources say the NTMA target is to borrow €3bn to €4bn through the deal, although that could be scaled up to meet demand. The NTMA’s target for borrowing in 2021 is €16bn to €20bn, much of it to plug an expected shortfall between tax revenue and spending as a result of schemes to support the economy through the Covid-19 shock.

The investor base for the new bond is any professional, retail and eligible counterparty, but demand is expected to be supported once again by the European Central Bank (ECB) in the background.

The ECB cannot lend to Ireland or other Euro members when bonds are issued but is very aggressively buying up debt in the secondary markets.

In December, the ECB committed to keep buying bonds under its pandemic emergency purchase programme “until it judges that the coronavirus crisis phase is over” (and at least until March 2022), and increased its so called envelope or budget by half a trillion euros.

In December bond market analyst Ryan McGrath of Cantor Fitzgerald said that despite the scale of new debt being raised Ireland’s borrowing looks “very manageable” given that it entered the crisis in a good fiscal position. “Markets will continue to look at Ireland very favourably,” Mr McGrath said.

Government is borrowing 4 BILLION that would of been enough to solve the housing crisis but would of destroyed existing house prices .Now read on The ECB cannot buy government bonds DIRECT so Bank of Ireland or whoever buy the Bonds from the Irish government then sell them on in the secondary market to the ECB who just ink up the printer and print the amount of money needed to buy the bonds .Its all a Game 150 years ago most of our families lived on two acres of land or a multi family hovel or wallowed in filth in the bilge of a Famine boat but now today we linger in 3 bedroomed centrally heated gaffs with wall to wall tv and internet and cars in the garden yet we do less actual work than our grandfathers .A fella won half a million last night for playing Darts .You question the reality of a Flu virus but dont question how you are thousands of times better off than your great grandparents by doing less .
