WEMBLEY and England v Italy *title edited by GNHQ at OP's request*

Even more rude….

OK if you think so you are obviously more delicate than me I did not call you rude when you criticised me for testing for my holiday when you don't test at all
Will leave it at that

When I was young I was very seriously ill with the then epidemic of Asian flu.

I explained about the reason why I don’t test but why I need to test now on another thread.

I also don't go out that often I do see my family regularly always have apart from first few months We are all vaccinated now
I take part in the ONS study so test quite regularly for that and now doing blood tests for antibodies
The tests are a bit fiddly but OK once you get the hang of it

Why don't we all just grow up and deal with the fact that we are living with Covid in any variation for the foreseeable future just like we live with flu in its variant strains, people get ill, some recover, some die, pardon the pun 'that's life'. Time to ditch the numbers, let's face it prior to 2020 none of us were the slightest bit interested in how many people were in hospital, or ICU, or had died in the UK over a 30 day cycle. So why so interested now!

Many people, mainly older people, die of flu every winter. Not last winter though, because people were not going out, or self isolating, or wearing masks etc flu wasn’t a big killer, but it usually is a killer every winter. That’s why we have the flu jab every winter. Instead last winter we had Covid, and now, thanks to the wonderful and dedicated scientists, we have Covid jabs too.

Am I the only one who thinks this thread has been completely de-railed!?
For crying out loud: We've got England v Ukraine coming up soon from Rome!
All we need to do is alter the title of this thread accordingly and re-post it.
We'll continue singing "We still call Australia home"
OoRoo

Sit down Rufus - I totally agree with you!
Sometimes threads run their course- even off-course- and it is time to put them out of their misery.

Oh FFS - everyone attending Wembley has either got to prove double vaccination at least two weeks ago, or a negative test. We need to get back to normal stat - covid is not going anywhere and we have to learn to live with it, just as we live with flu on an annual basis!

Oh not the flu analogy again. Get me out of here…..

You need to take a chill pill and get some perspective or you're going to make yourself ill. Focus on the now and stop with the what if's.

Here’s a little problem. DH reckoned that me missing the second half of the England Germany match, helped us win.
I got up to leave tonight just as Harry Kane scored, so now he wants me to stay for the whole match!

And you obviously did. It was Molly (who didn’t go) wot won it. Well done that woman!

This is the semi-final!

If England beat Denmark this evening they will play Italy in the final at Wembley at the weekend ⚽️

Oops meant the Finals..its my age ...?

I hope they win tonight ⚽️

I dont know if my nerves will let me watch!
Silly as I dont follow football very much.
My son was going to come around and watch it with us, but he has to isolate!
2 days in and his tests are negative

I don’t follow football normally Namsnanny,but it’s on here in our house, my husband is watching and I’m keeping an eye on it too. Come on boys, come on.

I had to watch the end of the men's quarter finals at Wimbledon first.
I do have my priorities!

Come in England ???????!

Orlin watching footi in the kitchen, I’ve been watching tennis and Grand Designs in the sitting room. Now watching football 9 mins in to extra time. Might go up to bed and watch the rest of Baptiste on iplayer or maybe read my book. Choices, choices
