it’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .
if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.
but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .
i'm just getting over covid:--tested positive last wednesday--been really ill for a few days. tested negative these last 3 days.
Thankfully--like the vast majority of UK citizens--i had 3 jabs--with no ill effects whatsoever. I do think if i hadnt had those jabs i would be in serious trouble now.

are people really that stupid ?
i was in bethel for years early 2000s and was heavily involved with brd from start to finish .
im current elder in one of the congregations in london.
what i’ve noticed is huge changes since covid .
welcome to the forum.
in the women's euro tournament, england beat germany 2-1 at wembley!!!.
i'll be honest - i've never really been that interested in women's football.
no, it's not because i'm a sexist pig, it's just that i was brought up on men's football and haven't had a tv license for the past 10 years.. but this win could really put women's football on the map, at least in britain.. there has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'lionesses' but i think it's a great name.
did someone score any goals ?
i need your help with this topic.
i’m trying to find an elder’s letter or wt article that frown upon a good standing jw allowing an unmarried couple to stay over their house for the night.. my wife claims this is a conscience matter and i say that’s bs, this leadership does not allow it.
would like to find this info..

in the us, our mega millions lottery jackpot has reached over 1billion dollars!
what would you do if you won?
i think i’d run public service announcements on television, alerting people of the dangers of the wt cult, among other things.
i'd do a bit of window cleaning on the side.
(UK TV the 2 ronnies sketch )
i look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.
sport on the telly. Not for me thanks--i prefer to watch paint dry.
the worst part of my experience of getting rid of the shackles of wt is not the shunning.
i can live with that.
if people don't want to talk to me, there are many more who do!
you also have to face the reality that sometimes the born in brain dead washed will stay with the only life support system they know--the watchtower...even choosing that over their partner.
My first wife was firmly in that category. She divorced me as fast as she could when i provided the scriptural grounds she needed. I'm sure she got great comfort from all the others in the congregation. Isnt that what its all about?
But that was 40+ years ago.

i caught out my JW parents about this 40 years ago. I was living with my lady and invited my parents to dinner--and to meet her.
They said--"you know we cant--because you are not married."
Now--i had already thought up my rebuttal to this...because they socialised openly with my mums sister--and male partner--who had never married and had 4 grown up kids.
i was surprised how quickly they backed down--met my lady--and got on like a house on fire.
We married a few months later--and were together for the next 23 years.
