Leyther_Matt Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Was hoping Warrington would be joining us in Tier 3 but no luck on that. Lost our deposit for Christmas Day meal out because they're still open and apparently it's our own choice to play by the rules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though workplaces and hospitality are closed, I'm not convinced that's where the problem is, I think it's kids and students spreading it now. And in a few days time, they'll potentially be mixing with more people than they would be doing under todays restrictions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of somebody who is having his wifes parents and brothers family round on Xmas day, and then on Boxing Day he's going to his mums, and so is his brother and his family - clearly there is far too much mixing going on there I've tried to explain why it's wrong, but he doesn't really give a fuck, and he really won't be alone, loads will be at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waffer cup 07 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Seems the government is able to split areas in the South of England into different tiers,e.g. waverly. But it's unable to do so for the North of England. strange that. Does Hancock live in Waverly.?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
