  • I grew up in Cardonald but my mum is Northern Irish, as a child I had a strong Irish accent and was bullied a lot for it. It is not as strong any more but people often refuse to believe I have only ever lived in Glasgow because of my "twang". My partner is English and to be honest people have been horrible to her for her "posh" accent even though she grew up in a really deprived area and the people who mock her voice are rich Glaswegians. by dankseamonster (Wed 12th May 2021 10:27pm)
  • Getting really anxious about Glasgow not being let out of restrictions. My work is opening next week and you wouldn't believe how much food and money has been wasted on previous short notice closures. I hope they can prioritise some vaccines for younger people in the areas with an outbreak and provide clear information rather than resorting to the local lockdown circus again when the most vulnerable have been vaccinated. by dankseamonster (Thu 13th May 2021 9:35am)
  • My work (restaurant) was supposed to open this week because we rely on alcohol sales with food, now what the hell are we supposed to do with all our stock. Fuck. Our new staff aren't eligible for furlough either. Glasgow has been under extra restrictions for so long by dankseamonster (Fri 14th May 2021 7:30pm)
  • Haven't been in the job long enough by dankseamonster (Sat 15th May 2021 5:41pm)
  • Have a great time, London was buzzing when I was there last week visiting family! Wishing you good weather as well. by dankseamonster (Mon 17th May 2021 3:55pm)
  • Mount Stuart is a good day out. You should go and see the seals at Scalpay Bay as well. by dankseamonster (Thu 27th May 2021 9:02am)
  • True but remember hospitalisations include incidental positive tests eg stroke patients with asymptomativ positive swab. by dankseamonster (Thu 27th May 2021 11:13pm)
  • Pretty damning when you see it laid out like that. I really hope we get level two next week, I doubt the level three restrictions are doing much at all to change the trajectory of the epidemic, especially with compliance very low. by dankseamonster (Fri 28th May 2021 9:10am)
  • Most obvious sign of the levels currently doing almost nothing has to be East Ren and Glasgow following almost exactly the same curve under different restrictions. At this point I think vaccination is virtually the only truly impactful intervention, and testing if accompanied by financial support and other resources. by dankseamonster (Fri 28th May 2021 9:24am)
  • It's crazy, especially considering almost everyone I know who has had it got it at work. Shaming is counterproductive. by dankseamonster (Fri 28th May 2021 10:17am)
  • I voted Labour but I know that many hospitality colleagues have gone off the SNP this year by dankseamonster (Fri 28th May 2021 10:00pm)
  • Ah yes, sorry. Been a while since I've been out there. by dankseamonster (Sat 29th May 2021 8:07am)
  • Brilliant, glad you enjoyed. It must have been good weather this weekend too. by dankseamonster (Sun 30th May 2021 11:13pm)
  • They're probably pricey too but roots and fruits and locavore both seem to keep free range eggs, maybe corrie mains? by dankseamonster (Tue 1st Jun 2021 3:38pm)
  • Cracking weather again today! by dankseamonster (Tue 1st Jun 2021 3:40pm)
  • Don't think live singing is allowed alas... by dankseamonster (Tue 1st Jun 2021 10:33pm)
  • West Kilbride or Irvine by dankseamonster (Thu 3rd Jun 2021 10:45pm)
  • I like Café Fame on Hope street by dankseamonster (Wed 30th Jun 2021 12:35pm)
  • It should be back open from Wednesday. by dankseamonster (Tue 10th Aug 2021 2:21pm)
