Never mind that - how many bus drivers from Finland wonβt get to see their boat?.......π
Piss taking aside - you must be getting withdrawal symptoms; it was hard enough with the boat being a mere 12 miles away and not being able to use it, must feel like you are half the world away from it.

I'm back at work and it's completely as it was when I left off. Nobody wears a face nappy, we do what we have to do when loading the trucks and if that means standing less than 2m away from the other person then that's what we do. I probably come within a sub-2m distance of at least 30-40 people a day. I still say the whole thing is a hysteria similar to Dancing Mania or the Salem Witch Trials, and will be seen as such in hindsight.

I kind of agree with what you are saying, good social distancing would have helped, but most people seem to not grasp this and don't care, but I cant agree with the use of the word hysteria, touching 1 million deaths worldwide now..

Probably still not in the top ten causes of death though? Twice as bad as flu, so serious yes. Serious for the world to stop? Iβm. It sure.

This reply is one I see all over social media, these 1m deaths are on top of other deaths, they are not replacing anything so yes its a bad thing. I agree we shouldn't be shutting everything down, but only if we all do our bit and adhere to social distancing and wear masks, not make up bullshit excuses to not wear a mask. The other one that annoys me is the young think they are ok as they all go out and get pissed and cop off with each other, all dandy, till they then go to work Monday and pass it on to someone who has done everything right to minimise catching it, or visit mummy and daddy on a sunday for dinner then pass it on to them. Its all screwed up and I don't believe anyone has the right answers to solve it.

I can't help but feel if a single, consistent message had been adhered to throughout, it may have been easier to sell, and more people would have attempted to stay 'on-side'.
Wherever people gather ... supermarkets ... seaside resorts ... pubs or eateries ... if we all stick to clean hands, face coverings when required and keep your distance we should keep the issue under control and help protect the vulnerable ... and self isolate if unwell.
Unfortunately the various messages have just served to create a chaotic feel ... 'eat out to help out' ... rule of six' etc. etc.

Its all screwed up and I don't believe anyone has the right answers to solve it. And here we go again, itβs all the fault of the young. I spent the last few days in Stratford. The elder generation exhibited no more sense of social distancing than the young. Iβve said before on here, that my bowling club members, mostly over 65 years of age, do not social distance. I agree any extra death is bad. Would dispute that all the covid deaths are extra mind?
