| Eugh......another nail in the coffin of my optimism about some | |

| So utterly disappointing. | |

| I have had actual surgery and CT Scans in the last few months, | |
| no problems and nothing to do with Covid. I will not hear a word | |

| They did not stop cancer treatment (as my brother will testify) | |
| nor did they stop the other care you mention nor has "half the | |

| Well this is veering off topic. People's experiences are likely | |
| to vary as they are likely to with an organisation as large as | |
| the NHS. If said experiences are rubbish those feelings are | |
| likely to be understandably raw. I've had some superb | |
| experiences with them and some downright awful since March 2020. | |
| Much the same as I did pre-Covid. I certainly wouldn't say that | |
| any of the staff have been doing naff all though. | |
| They've probably done the right thing refunding the tickets so | |
| that the finalists can have as many as possible. Do feel it's a | |
| bit of a shame that capacity is being reduced to 10,000 when HQ | |
| is 82,000 but thems the rules - 25% or 10,000 whichever is | |
| lower. | |

| I do feel sorry for your father - I really feel for his family. | |
| My wife has had 4 relatives (uncles/aunts) die of cancer over | |
| the past 10 or so years and 2 sisters - and I have lost 2 great | |
| friends - I have been through the process more times than you'd | |
| want. | |
| But you're quite wrong about the NHS having done "sod all". I | |
| have three friends undergoing cancer treatment at the moment, | |
| all having started their treatment a year ago. I know several | |
| nurses who are not working in COVID wards and they are flat out. | |
| I do not know where you get your opinions from, but how you | |
| present them is crass and asinine. | |
| Shape up, man! >:( | |

| My cancer treatment continued throughout this whole pandemic | |
| saga. One of my good friends is a surgeon in an NHS hospital, | |
| and he has not stopped at all over the last year or more, same | |
| for his wife, a nurse at a different hospital. | |

| Back on topic from the NHS, how come the football is allowed | |
| 25000 at Wembley? Their seems to be less consistency with the | |
| spectator numbers than with Premiership refereeing! | |

| Putting my sceptics hat on, I'd suggest it's down to how high | |
| profile the relative events are. Much as we'd like to think | |
| otherwise, the Prem Final just isn't as big a deal in the | |
| national non-sport press & public psyche as the Euros, Wimbledon | |
| or Ascot. Because of that, the people making the decisions want | |
| to put across the idea that they're opening things up without | |
| actually doing too much about it are picking pilot events based | |
| on the PR impact that the stories will have. By showing photos | |
| in the newspapers/on TV of bigger crowds at Wembley, in Centre | |
| Court or on the trackside at the races makes a bigger story than | |
| the crowds at Twickenham for the final. | |
| Football, Wimbledon, Ascot etc are more firmly ingrained into | |
| the national identity as events than the Premiership final is. | |
| When you want to to set a narrative of "Look! We're opening nice | |
| things for you!" while actually wanting to keep things locked | |
| down relatively tight generally, having crowds at Wembley etc | |
| hit home harder than crowds at the Rugby. It's a different | |
| matter when it comes to the 6 Nations. That's an event that has | |
| sufficient "draw" to the disinterested viewer to rival football, | |
| tennis, racing, etc. I reckon if we were playing the 6 Nations | |
| now, they'd let *that* be a pilot event. | |
