Has anybody else been asked to volunteer to take part in a Covid19 testing exercise? I received a letter which asked me to go online and fill out my details, age, sex employment status etc etc. A couple of days later a testing kit dropped through my letter box with explicit instructions on how to use it. I followed the instructions and then photographed the result and emailed it back to the NHS. I proved negative and also had no antibodies so I'm all clear. Phil My little sis has..she's Rugby area.

Saturday we had a look on ebay sunday picked up a nearly new oven for 90 squids! fitted bish bosh done Blokes have their uses I suppose.... However there is no way I'm letting son who stays here at times near my oven..so far he's fallen through the shower screen breaking that, blew the trip switch fuse(actually broke the trip switch not just blown fuse), broken a window handle(it'll never be the same) and this weekend tripped carrying his oven..that survived but the glass frame that housed a wonderful collage that took me hours and illustrates my wonderful time around S America, shattered. This collided with a cill which is now cracked..... ..he is what u would call tad clumsy. So I'm patiently waiting. I'm also patiently waiting for a new shower screen having discovered that when the other one fell it landed in the bath which now has large crack tracking from a hole..I've decided to rip out the bath and just have walk in shower, Not because I'm getting more unsteady but it could be safer for son......

This from the demon damian (666).
No boating in Leicester Hi Boater!,
Following the announcement from the Secretary of State for Health & Social Care (29 June 2020) regarding the reintroduction of lockdown measures in Leicester, we are issuing new guidance on use of the waterways in the city and surrounding areas during this period.
In line with Government advice we are asking leisure boaters to stop all non-essential travel into and through the city with immediate effect.
In order to help those who live-aboard, the Trust is suspending the requirement to move every 14 days on moorings between Wanlip (Bridge 18) and Newton Harcourt (Bridge 52). The suspension will be kept under review in line with revised government guidance. In addition leisure boaters with a mooring in the affected area who do not liveaboard will be unable to visit their boats during this period.
Hire boat bases, which are due to begin operating again from 4 July, are asked to direct their customers away from the affected area.
Angling and paddle sports have now been suspended on the River Soar/Grand Union Canal between the locations identified above.
Whilst towpaths in the city will remain open, use of them should be limited. We are asking people to please stay local, avoid any stretches with moored boats and strictly observe social distancing at all times. In particular, cyclists should go slowly and take care around other users.
During this period of lockdown we will be working to ensure that vital boater facilities and services are accessible to those that need them. Work in the city will be focused on those roles which are critical to the safe management of the waterways, for example managing water levels, carrying out statutory inspections of canal structures and ensuring essential facilities for boaters are available.
All volunteering, including work done by partner groups, in the affected area is now suspended.
We ask everyone to be considerate during this period of extended lockdown and to enjoy their local waterway responsibly. Throughout this crisis waterways have provided an important lifeline and will continue to do so over the next two weeks as people in Leicester look for local green open spaces for their daily exercise.
We will be doing whatever we can to support our customers and protect the waterways so we can return to enjoying them fully when restrictions can be eased. The situation will be kept under active review and updates provided in line with the latest Government guidance.
Stay safe,
Damian
Boating communications manager

I've been through Leicester by boat a couple of times, years ago.
I fail to understand why anyone in their right mind would do this but I suppose it's just one of those things that happens.
It seems improbable that the inability to go boating in Leicester would have any negative impacts on people other than those already in the place and forced to remain there.

There's no avoiding Leicester when you go along the River Soar, and we stopped 2 nights instead of the original plan of rush-through-early-in-the-morning and, strange to say, rather enjoyed Leicester. Although we wouldn't pay the £15 odd to see some skeleton dug up from beneath the car park claimed to be of King Richard III who was a bit boring on the best of days anyway.
