It’s just baffling to be honest - my sons football team have just cancelled a 7 a side tournament at their home ground that would have attracted maybe 100-150 people that would be outside. The idea that they couldn’t guarantee Cov-ID secure yet 140K 25 miles down the road could.It should be ok. Itsnot as if people who like formula one have friends or a social life to facilitate them spreading the virus

Also bloke from Silverstone said earlier they would’ve gone bust if it was cancelled/no crowd
Silverstone is always going bust. Pandemic or no pandemic. It’s a long standing tradition. Same with the RSC. It usually just means that they’ve lost a wealthy benefactor and need a new one.Also bloke from Silverstone said earlier they would’ve gone bust if it was cancelled/no crowd
I think they’re both part of the same self help group.
@Nick is right on the fatties though. Should be regularly checked and if you’re over weight sent off to a fat camp.
Any child that is overweight should be taken off their parents as well it’s child abuse
What a gentleman
But it’s a vicious cycle isn’t it. How many times do you see fat kids aged between 5-15 and it’s because their parents are fat too. They then get bullied at school and have health problems etc. How hard is it to put the chocolate in a high cupboard and put peas on their plates
It isn't always that simple though, particularly as you get older. It's a difficult balance between giving people the personal freedom to live how they wish and the indirect consequences their actions have on others. Not a parent yet but as and when I am one I'll learn from what happened to me with easy access to fattening food and drink.
It would be nice to see restaurants offering children smaller portions of the adult menu instead of chicken nuggets out the freezer

Do you need reminding how many kids our ‘glorious’ government have pushed into poverty these last 11 years?Children wouldn’t be allowed to be underweight or malnourished
Taking my kids out to restaurants it's just something, chips and beans. Without wanting to sound like a food snob (cos I definitely am not), they don't eat that at home so why would they want it out. As you say just a smaller portion of the adult menu is what they should be having like they do at home (we have peas instead of beans ffs)It isn't always that simple though, particularly as you get older.

I know what you mean about access. It pissed me off that during both lockdowns I could order a takeaway but I couldn’t go to the gym. Gyms should’ve remained open and fast food places shut down in my eyes
Gyms I understand because they're indoors, but outdoor sport should have been allowed to continue throughout. Does so much for physical and mental health even if it's only a few hours a week. Know a few who have done Man v Fat football and it's worked wonders for them

Yeah a lad in my team caught covid and we’d trained with him that morning and all of us tested negative. Same with Gilmour it seems its doesn’t transmit that much playing football outdoors. Kids football should’ve continued at the expense of takeaways. Of course that wouldn’t have been the best decision financially

My lads year off due to positive case. His mates whole school is shut. Getting about a bit again.

Didn’t have to be one or the other. If people can’t/won’t cook then that’s on them, not the takeaway owner. But definitely agree that outdoor sport could and should have carried on a lot more than it did.
I know it didn’t have to be but if it was a balancing act for the government and only one could remain, it should have been sports

I’d agree on a personal level but would the country ?! We’ve had a virus that people know hits the obese hardest and that a healthier lifestyle might increase your chances of survival/less severe illness...what does the country do whilst most of it was on furlough...less fucking exercise*.
*Edit - apart from over 65s apparently
*It’s rife in the under 30s (looking at latest PHE data) As long as it’s not leading to big uptick in illness/hospitalisations then I think it’s something that will be accepted. There was a slow down in the rate of transmission across the country last week (expect a Scottish and London post Wembley increase this week but elsewhere hopefully it will continue that pattern)
