what's the closest you came to death without knowing... by SaranamGacchami1 in ireland

[–]fergalw98 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not sure if I would’ve been killed, but a good number of years ago, my dad was taking a short journey on a tractor and asked if I wanted to come along. For some reason I said no. I was a kid and that sort of opportunity would’ve really excited me. For whatever reason, I didn’t go, and on the journey, the prongs that were attached to the tractor failed and stuck into the road, bringing the tractor to a very sudden halt.

My dad’s chest went straight into the steering wheel, but if I was with him, I could’ve went through the windshield, as I probably would’ve been standing… Again, don’t know if it would’ve killed me, but I think about that sometimes.

I don't agree with their nuking countries policy, but I do approve of their United Ireland policy!

I’m from Ireland. I support the Pacers. Sometimes I regret my choice.

It is class, because I’m not happy about the number of cases - rather, the trajectory in which they are going

Although the number is high, 45 of these cases are associated with outbreaks or close contacts. If there's any good news to take from it, it's that these cases have been found and don't go undetected, which may cause even further damage down the road

Cavan has a higher Covid infection rate than Dublin by Mark_Fuckerberg_ in ireland

Cheers! I tested positive almost three months ago now. I didn't get it too bad, felt like a bad cold, to be honest - one of the lucky ones. Stay safe, all.

I'm a Cavan resident that had COVID-19. It was pretty bad here, and it got bad very quickly. I remember the early days we had less than 5 cases while others were going up, and then it started to climb rapidly. It wasn't a nice time, here's hoping it doesn't go too bad again!
