Our dogs had a big fight today mate, the cairn terrier gave the Jack Russell a bit of a hiding.

Why was that like mate.

Not heard anything about that yet. I think they are working to clear the backlog of claims first, and then they'll probably assess the costs and success of the scheme.

My instinct says yes it will be extended but not as long as October. But that's only my gut feeling, not based on anything.

Think it depends what job you do. Someone like Posh in sports journalism won't have any serious work this year.

Our Cairn terrier is a bit of a loon mate, the Jack went to pick up her squeaky toy so she leaped on him.

I’m in the same boat mate, except I’ve booked for Spain.

You have to wait for them to cancel or you’ll lose the lot.

The Martin Lewis website is very good for explaining the ins and outs of it all.

No matter what that nugget O’Leary says, there won’t be any foreign hols for Brits this Summer.

Dont mean to rub this in, but finally got a full refund off Tui today having waited seven weeks, after they cancelled it.

Testing people without symptoms is an utter waste of time though.

Ill let the many experts mass debate the merit of testing. However, 100,000 promised fast approaching 2 weeks passed that now, still cant manage it.

The final slide shared by the Government during this afternoon's press briefing shows how different regions of the UK are coping with hospital admissions.

London has seen the steepest drop in patients having previously been hit by a sharp rise:

600+ deaths announced today. Back to the horrendous average.

Strange that the day before the clown's address on Saturday and then on Sunday the death toll was 200+ and then 100+.

Hancock has recieved a letter from UK Statistics Authority, its no surprise, being woolly with the testing.

Interesting thread

Little experiment in Japan on how the virus spreads in a restaurant... You can easily extrapolate to other settings, going back to work. The decision of going back to work reminds me of those World War 1 generals sending men over the trench to their deaths while they supped tea.

15 deaths in Germany today.

Meanwhile we are recording 30 an hour.
