Another case of this ‘stay indoors’ shite that really grinds my gears. What in the name of actual fcuk is wrong with using the phrase ‘stay home’. That works. I’m at home right now. I washed the car. It doubled up as my exercise and trip outside for the day. If it was warmer, I could sit in the garden. I might wash the windows tomorrow.... I’ll be nowhere near any cnut, never mind breaching the 2m rule. I am officially past caring if anyone thinks my attitude on this is poor form. You stay indoors and shut the blinds to the world if you want to. Leave those of us who are following the advice and trying their hardest to get on with adhering to the government’s own advice to get in with it. Also, if braindead fcuks cannot heed the advice, and publically flaunt it - arseholes having parties, neds maybe gathering in a park to drink, whatever - not my problem. These fcuks better not be responsible for the rest of us actually having to be shut indoors though.

What was the line a couple of weeks back about tying up the Emergency Services ??? Fcuk me, is this Nazi Germany ??? As you say, dealing with groups of neds (or anyone else) for seriously flouting the regulations is one thing, but keeping tabs of people going for a walk or timing their time taken on a walk is just a bit too George Orwell for my liking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you feel like a twat tho. Have subsequently read that the cdc have denied that they're going to do that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closest I came to anybody yesterday other than family was about 10 yards, when one of the neighbours dropped a bag of shopping into the old couple that stay next door, which they just left on their porch.There seem to be a lot of people getting themselves seething about folk doing perfectly safe stuff. I'm at more risk out shopping or at work than I am in my own garden.Also seems a lot of folk have missed the bit that says it is ok to go out and help or care for a vulnerable person. There are also guidelines around that, if you do have to enter their house you should wash your hands when you go in, try and stay 2m apart, then wash your hands before you leave, and wear gloves and a mask if you can. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Govt needs to cut down on queues at supermarkets - don't understand why they can't ensure everyone gets their shopping delivered ( as happened in Wuhan I believe) or you have to book trips to the supermarket in advance Interestingly, the Scottish and Welsh legislation requires people responsible for premises that are still open "to take all reasonable measures" to enforce social distancing, including limiting the number of people on the premises and enforce distancing in the queues. The English legislation doesn't. It's the only difference between them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I was there and everyone in my group are absolutely fine. It would be interesting if someone was able to trace how much of an impact keeping Cheltenham on had. In hindsight (though not strictly needed) that was a ludicrous decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
