    They're just dull, living in a dark,negative, cold, colourless, humourless world and I honestly can't grasp where this thinking comes from, but hey ho..!!

    She is an unusual woman. Buy yes, despite her heritage, she has come out with anti-Israel comments in the past

    I understand that most people might be cooped up at home at the moment rather than being out shopping( :eek: !) or down the pub. But let's cut out all of the personal attacks. It does nobody any credit. Thanks

    problem here @Dennis@Dennis is that there are friends of the moderators of this board that have been getting away with personal attacks for too long whereas others, who aren't, are jumped on straight away and warned about their posts almost immediately.

    the moderators have friends? That must be why I’m not a mod anymore, no friends

    @Storck@Storck - there's a kids song for that. Involves eating worms. See how they wriggle and squirm...

    Very worrying mate, Germany ease restriction and infections rise, 11,000 deaths in Russian, asyour article this horrible infection has a long time to run I'm afraid, I'd have preferred Boris to be aware what is happening elsewhere and not to jump the gun.

    I just posted on another thread. I wonder if he is re-writing his guidelines as we speak, based on rising infection rates in Germany, France and South Korea

    What a call he has to make, think he has already decided to go cautiously, damned if he does damned if he doesn't...

    I agree. But I think the new mantra is a bit too vague and woolly. The current one is much clearer

    Agree but they seem to have coincided with those countries relaxing lock downs. What's the lock down status in Spain today?

    After today's news and figures it certainly doesn't make it any easier making a decision.
    It just seems different businesses are doing different things, take B&Q they told me I could go and await my turn in entering similar to supermarkets, yet Wickes do not allow people just going and expecting to go in, you must purchase what you want online and they will pick your goods and text you when you can pick them up, yet some people were just turning up yesterday expecting to walk straight in and getting annoyed with the guy who came out and said unless you have ordered online you can't come in, some of the comments he recieved were uncalled for.

    It's because of idiots like that, that whatever the message is it need to be spelled out in words of 2 syllables or less (the people abusing staff at Wickes)
