The guidance is that you can exercise outdoors in your local area. A 7 mile bike ride seems fair enough to me, not that a 27 mile bike ride would be any more or less dangerous. Boris has had some pretty dire messaging on coronavirus, but this isn't one of them. Given how relatively safe it is to...

Complaining about why McDonald's drive-thru and Costa are still open isn't helping people be clear about the rules, which most people seem capable of understanding. It's a distraction and you're welcome to it.

We could happily spend the next hour arguing about whether it's safer, or feasible, or cost-effective for all food to be delivered and all shops to be closed down. But that would only be worthwhile if coffee shops were somehow the biggest driver of Covid spread. They're not - it's just what the...

Food is generally considered essential, yes. If you're arguing these kind of semantics, then clearly you're suggesting the current rules are meaningless. Fair enough, I just disagree with you.

The rules are straightforward enough to me. Keeping takeaway food places open seems like a no-brainer, and that clearly includes coffee places. All rules are open to interpretation to an extent, and all rules will be bent/broken by some. Sure, that doesn't mean you can't improve them, or...

One Senator inside the Capitol said when she was told to evacuate, she first assumed it was an Iranian attack. Goes to show how messed up some people's fears are when there's literally a mob of right-wing lunatics down the street and you still assume it's the Muslims who are most likely coming...

Yes, yes, and no (but it’s safer for other people you encounter if you do). Not sure where the confusion is here. The rules with this lockdown are pretty much exactly the same as the last one, but as others have said, the difference this time is that people aren’t terrified of getting the virus...

A couple of studies I found interesting: One BMJ study says the public have generally been pretty observant of lockdown measures, and deserves more credit for it. There’s one key exception though - people not self-isolating when they (or a close contact) test positive. And that’s often because...

Have you tried Tesco’s burger aisle?

If he’d stayed (likely on slightly improved terms) he’d have been pretty average in L1 (as he has been with Sunderland etc), the fans would have griped about him, and we never would have had the Reading money to buy (and then flip) better players like Chaplin. Instead he left, got a big payday...

Not in the squad for the U23s today. If he wasn't in the squad on Saturday because he had a loan move in the works, they're certainly taking their time with it, if it still wasn't sorted today. The unfortunate alternative is that we've currently got a charity case in the squad. Even Kastaneer...

Jesus, that sounds awful.

If it's really getting to you, you could always go on holiday to Dubai, just to get away from it all for a few days.

The Chorley team filming themselves all packed inside a tiny changing room and belting out Adele was another one. Football's fucked at this rate.

Yeah, I'm sure the guy who was working on respiratory wards over Christmas can hardly contain his joy at this pandemic generating unprecedented levels of death on his watch, due to policies that he has little direct control over. What an arsehole.

Zero goals in eight Conference games for Pontichelli this season. I think I’d pass.

People who do the whole "Can't wait for this year to be over/Next year will be MY year" stuff are among the most stupid people out there.

Kimberly Trump isn't even a real person mate.

Rubbish.

Just re-upping this great article from Thursday because as we all know, we are a team on the up.
