Proper order, no way in hell christmas tat can be deemed essential in October.

I do wish I could celebrate a ban on Christmas tat until at least the end of November……but the government have ruined it for me, coz it’s part of their inept, illogical, authoritarian and downright insane attempt to completely destroy a virus (for the first time in human history).

If Ireland wanted to destroy the virus, the borders would be closed. Ireland is just trying to save some lives.

if Ireland was trying to save lives they could start by taking some practical steps like addressing care home set ups and add ICU beds

I have seen lots of people go with their trees up etc already, few reasons I think, to hasten in the end of a bad year, because some people love the cosy look and want to cheer up lockdown, to ease internal fears ” there will be no Christmas ” , because it’s predictable and reassuring to some and people want that. My take.

Surely that’s “More 4 Less, Swords”, not “One for All”, the vouchers?
