The minds a funny thing Dave it’s like when someone mentions fleas all of a sudden you start itching for some unknow reason and I have found myself second guessing myself when I do one off those stupid little coughs,is it or isn’t it.

i have decided to go to work as the situation is as always with me,on my own apart from Weaver my sprocker,clients are speaking to me from the bedroom window just to say good morning so am just going to crack on.

keep us updated on your wife and how things are panning out over there as it’s a good comparison.

Will do Wayne, a friend who works in the local Lidl has said if we need shopping, she will get it and leave in our garden, no contact with us.

What's the point of having this lockdown, if people are just going to work anyway, it just won't work, look at the scary footage from Italy, the more we say, I'm just going to do this or do that, more Will follow suit. The government have got to be clearer.

Mr miggins is going to get angry/stressed when so tell her you can't turn up so her  lawn ain't gonna be regulary  scalped and bushes aren't trimmed, but scalping lawns isn't an  essential activity surely?

 

 

Alot of new "corona meadows"?

 

Neither is most  tree work  essential either apart from road side, train and power line work maybe?

 

Alot of dying ash everywhere....

If someone wants to espouse an opinion that continuing to work, where that work can be undertaken without compromising current guidance, is inappropriate I’d invite them to post a picture of their next shopping trolley. 
 

If it contains only the essential food groups - no biscuits, no booze, no luxury items for example - I’ll put them on a list entitled “not talking out of their ass.”

 

Anyone going into the acknowledged higher risk environment of supermarket shopping, and buying anything additional to basic, essential food groups and suggesting I can’t work alone on the moors will be on the “other” list.

Fair!

 

On the bright side, it’s good to see people thinking and voicing independent thought rather than being led by the nose from the many layers of retarded officialdom. 
 

There’s a simple principle to follow and it is enshrined in our history. 
 

 Do no harm to others.

I have three doctor friends who have rather worryingly taken early retirement.  Pressure of general practice, long hours and form filling. 

 If I put you in charge of the health service, what changes would you make to improve the environment for doctors and nurses?

The first thing I would do would be to reinstate the nurses bursary to encourage more into the industry. We have always been able to afford this previously, so why not now?

With the present situation it more a question of can we afford not to pay to cover the bill for more nurses?
