Perhaps stick with hindsight, it’s safer there! 😅 How am I disagreeing with myself? I'd go with what's safe. Dom's safe might not be safe.

Plenty folk are itching for an opportunity to fuck it all off I'd be thinking June to start relaxing restrictions if the numbers continue to fall That means we're probably about half way through No way we're seeing full cooperation till then The general public is not Twitter. The general election proved that. I haven’t seen the gangster funeral. I’m guessing that 90% of the population of the U.K. haven’t seen it either. That’s a guess by the way but I’ll probably be pretty near. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s probably naive of me to think that politics would be put to one side during this unprecedented crisis but it’s always there. Always probing. Undermining and hindering the efforts of the government and health services. Boris steady? I'll believe that when I see it. He's a charlatan and a chancer (in my opinion, of course) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Most building suppliers will be open round here tomorrow. That’s been the only thing stopping most tradesmen working, not the lockdown. loads will be back to work tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t blame them, as long as they practice social distancing and act sensibly, it’s time to unwind this lockdown in the next few weeks.

Dom's safe might not be safe. Keep up man😀 No one's safe might be safe. But if your opinion matched it, then obviously it would be. Therein is the point, Dom ought to have far more valuable input than us on here, and it won't be from a scientific point of view. That doesn't mean it's not valuable. Nor does it mean he shouldn't be there because he's viewed in a dim light by some. It's like having a bloke you don't like as manager of bwfc, if he's doing a decent job it doesn't matter. In these historic times, I don't care who is invited to join as they will have something to offer if they have been. It's too big and important for them not to be.

That’s been the only thing stopping most tradesmen working, not the lockdown. loads will be back to work tomorrow. They've been gradually easing back. Hopefully I should be ok for a tonne bag of soil improver tomorrow- trade can collect from the yard. Initially, the place was closed. Interestingly, the numbers of people in the food delivery chain off sick/isolating was 20% not so long back. Now down to between 6 and 10%. Assuming this is reflected elsewhere, maybe companies now have enough staff available to open, albeit in a limited way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to genealogy records, the Prince of Wales is a distant descendant of Vlad the Impaler, the man who Bram Stoker’s Dracula was inspired by. I copied and pasted this from a web site.

Site Supporter only1swanny Posted April 26, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted April 26, 2020 Reckon the lockdown will end mid June (when the shielded go back), kids won't be back in school this year though. Huge spreaders.. I agree with MB (for once), i'm all for the science.. but if those decisions are being headed by a spin doctor rather than level headed thinking.. then it's a no..

Escobarp Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Not sure who is actually saying anyone is the head of anything? I’ve not seen one thing since this started that led me to believe there was any person in particular holding sway in this, in terms of devising the strategy. Obviously boris has the final say as should be the case but I’m not seeing him as either an autocrat or someone who isn’t bringing in the relevant experts and importantly is listening to them My take is that it’s a group of several people and various organizations represented that are then formulating opinions which are then discussed with the government and a strategy agreed upon maybe I’m reading it all wrong of course. Or maybe my take on it isn’t something that can be sensationalized into something it’s not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
