  Depends on selection criteria I guess

  Good point. I don't think you could count people that Hammer sacked. 🙂

  King Carlos might be a contender.

  Or the ones who left because of the Hammeteur.

  A bit of an awkward couple of days of auctions, moving stuff and taking the old man out for pizza and beer. Not a lot of time for much exercise so hopefully I don’t turn to mush. I’ve also got the other half’s family thing in Hawkes Bay this weekend so that will involve a fair bit of eating and drinking to put it mildly. Will try and find somewhere to bust out a few chins at least, do a walk up the peak and hit a tire with the hammer if I get a chance.

  All of the below for one case 🙄

  **Low risk jurisdictions** * Before travelling to WA, complete a mandatory G2G Pass registration and declaration. * Complete a health screening on arrival. * Scan your G2G Pass and then verify you have suitable premises for self-quarantine. * If you have suitable premises, enter self-quarantine for 14 days. If not, you will be directed to enter a Government-approved quarantine facility at your own expense for 14 days. * You must wear a mask from when you enter WA until you arrive at suitable self-quarantine premises or government approved quarantine facilities. In addition if travelling by air, you must also wear a mask on the flight while in WA airspace, and while inside the airport (with some exceptions – e.g. children under the age of 12 are not required to wear a mask). * Travellers are subject to a COVID-19 test within 48 hours of arrival and on day 12 of quarantine, or at any point when symptoms develop. * A mask must be worn while travelling to and from the COVID Clinic.

  @dogmeat said in F off with the damn PC Brigade:

  @crucial Nah In the same article that @mariner4life quotes Keef from Jagger says they've played it every night since 1970 and they might put it back in.

  Slavery, Rape, Whipping, Cunnilingus, Heroin. What's got the snowflakes so agitated? Sounds like a lot of the 70's to me - well not the slavery but the rest for sure.

  Yep. "Jagger added: “We’ve played ‘Brown Sugar’ every night since 1970, so sometimes you think, ‘We’ll take that one out for now and see how it goes.’ We might put it back in. "

  So as far as I can tell no one has told them to take it out or influenced them for PC reasons.
