The place to be is just outside a delightful place called Ingoldmels. Drove through once never got out. One of my daughters commented that you could catch an STD just by looking out the car window - it’s truly hell on earth

Don’t tell anyone but I’ve actually been there. Worlds worst fairground. Fantasy island.

I'm out on my local high street to go to the butchers. It is significantly busier, lots of traffic and people shopping as families. Expecting 'common sense' from a population that contains demonstrably thick people was never going to work.

last time I went there as I drove in (about 6:30pm) there was a drunk been loaded in to an ambulance on one side of the road and an emergency glazier boarding up the front window of an Indian restaurant on the other.
By the end of the weekend my son declared he 'loved Skegness'.

Wish I'd known that before I'd spunked fucking thousands on foreign holidays, could have just driven to Lincolnshire.

I had a mate call me last night, the one who tried to kill himself and I still haven’t seen in person since. He’d read the papers and was convinced lockdowns over and wanted to know why I wasn’t coming over for a beer. He wouldn’t accept that we aren’t allowed right now, says he knows loads of people who are going out. Was getting personally offended when I said no.

What do you do with that?

BBQs and house parties apparently. “Pubs will be open next month”. He’s not, shall we say, the most aware person. But there comes a point where saying “common sense” just leads to people looking at the majority and taking a “well if they can why can’t I?” Approach. In his words “we’ve done this lockdown for weeks and it’s made no difference so what’s the point?”

Anyway, more bothered about trying to explain why I couldn’t see him without triggering the stuff that made him want to top himself.

Because the trends are basically flat if you take away outliers like bank holidays.

We are now getting 3500 plus new cases a day which is liable to increase as more people venture out.

The r rate was increasing pre loosening as well so it is likely this will get worse.

Ffs you are an arse kissing cap doffing moron

Yep, and you should think yourself lucky you have that choice. Me and the wife are both key workers, therefore our youngest has to go 3 days a week while we are at work. If we had the choice, we'd keep her off too.
Our lad is in year 10. Williamson announced it's year 10 that will be back in school first. I'd rather not send him, but how can I tell my daughter it's safe enough for her to attend school but not my lad?

Of course the cases are increasing as we are doing more testing, if you actually stop and think for a second you’ll realise the more tests done means the more cases we pick up

Last Saturdays numbers were for bank holiday Friday. So effectively weekend numbers. Can’t compare them really.
