I'm going to be posting lots of rubbish (worse than normal) for the next 7 day as I will be extremely bored as I have Covid and have to isolate.
just to make things worse the next 4days are going to be 15knots plus and warm
i don't think it would be so bad if I had symptoms so didn't feel like windsurfing but I feel great

Why did you bother testing yourself if you felt ok? Always seemed Irish to me that people would test themselves with the possible outcome of being locked at home. Yes, I have a bit of a sniffle at the moment but no way I would test, it's just asking for trouble.

Thanks for all your efforts looking after your fellow citizens and potentially killing a few people.

"Posting lots of rubbish" due to Covid? Maybe some members on here have "long Covid"...

Because it is a contagious disease? And you do not want to give it to others?

Isn't windsurfing the ultimate in social distancing? Quarantining on the water shouldn't be a problem.

I can't believe that I too have now caught Covid..... and just when this season of Johnny and Amber is coming to an end. Luckily I still need to catch up on a few episodes. She is a terrible actor, I don't know who she had to sleep with to get the role in this saga.

Pre 2019 going to work sick never bothered people before. Why change now? Pre 2019 thousands died from the flu.

No one should ever go to work sick, best reason to go to the beach instead.

Not to forget all the parents who sent their children to school when they were sick!
