Can we reserve this thread for actual famous people, instead of this Ric dude and Eddie above?

And that's the story of why I'm not allowed near pregnant women for the next few weeks.

:lol:

Gotta say, threads like this always make me think:

BREAKING NEWS: PEOPLE STILL DYING IN 2019
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Clearly you’re not getting your mitts on Eddie Money’s other ticket to paradise. :(

It's part of the fun when I open this thread.... Is it someone I actually know. :)

I've felt for a while that we needed to raise the bar on entry... but didn't want to be the first to say it -_-

I thought (in my ignorance) that you meant the company founder or something like that, but it actually is the travel company.

Feel for the thousands of people trapped abroad:

In total it's actually 600,000 - only 150,000 are British holiday goers. The mind boggles that the Thomas Cook business model is so bad that they haven't been turning a decent profit. I know that wheels were already in motion to get people back so that should be fairly slick. I feel for all the people that are losing jobs over this and the impact it will have on the tourist industry in various foriegn countries.
