It is definitely heading for a full lock down as it is the only way to surpress the virus.
The trouble is the country can not afford a second lockdown.
If they had used the time in the first lockdown to prepare properly for opening up again we could have avoided this mess.

They set themselves up to fail as soon as they released that timeline of when things were opening.
 
Went to town last night in the peaky blinders bar then to the escape room on the docks.

Personally I think that this 10pm curfew is spot on, walked out after at 10pm and it seemed a lot of people was asking the same question about is there anywhere open but seemed sober enough to just go home.

Fair enough some will go back to a mixed house party with people they don’t know but many will still just stick to who they are with, and table service aswell makes it even more impossible to mix with having to wear masks when leaving the table.

Lad in work was feeling like crap about a couple of weeks ago, but still carried on coming in. He phoned up to get a test 2 weeks ago on the Tuesday was told to self-isolate immediately and managed to get one for the Wednesday after he'd finished work, which he still came in for.
Had his test and was informed he would find out within 48 hours and should continue to self-isolate until he received the results, he came into work still on the Thursday and Friday doing overtime as well both days. Friday evening a few of the lads went the pub after work for a beer and low and behold this balloon turned up and sat with them for a couple of hours, then buggered off to 2 more pubs when a couple of his mates turned up.
Saturday morning he informed our manager he'd got a positive test, he sent him the email to prove it and ensured he got full sick pay and would have to self-isolate for 2 weeks. Saturday afternoon he went the pub and met up with some of the lads from work who didn't have a clue he had tested positive, before joining another group of his mates for an afternoon session around town, before heading back to the local and walking around and for some bizzare reason high fiving everybody in the gaff he knew.
Saturday evening he went round every local in the area meeting up with some of the staff from work and stayed out till 1am absolutley shoitefaced, (he considers himself a hardcore red, been everywhere knows everything about football, had to give his season ticket up though because of work, and can't get a ticket these days cos of foreigners... even though us at Goodison still manage to make time to go the game).
Sunday he was up and out early into town for a quick few before heading back to his local area taking in three pubs before settling down in the lacal gaff to watch the shoite play. He stood pontificating aboutl how they're the greatest team ever to all and sundry before eventually staggering home at 11pm.
The manager in work has been going through who this bell has been in touch with and informing them they now have to self-isolate for 2 weeks on statutory sick pay, people are panicking and phoning for tests, but are told unless you have the symptoms you can't get a test. Meanwhile this idiot is now spotted on Monday out shopping without a mask on and chatting to everyone he meets like a latter day Parkinson.
As the week starts to go on a whole clutch a people in work have become ill and tested positive for Covid, including one poor chap who had only been back a short while after having underlying health concerns, always wears a mask, gloves etc... eats his dinner and has his breaks in his car, but billy big bollocks decided to go and chat to him, he apparently is in a bad way and has been hospitalised. Work have know had to inform PHE to inform them of the cluster, everything has been deep cleaned and track and trace have been getting in touch informing everybody and everywhere this nugget has been.
Unfortunately as far as they are concerned he hasn't been out of the house since he first phoned up requesting a test nearly a fortnight ago Tuesday. But this turd has been frolicking around for a further 7 days, only stopping going out when he's began receiving some strongly worded calls to his phone which he's now stopped answering.
Swear some people are massive idiots to put it lightly...

Report him to the police. In reality, he needs a hiding, but at least make the authorities aware.

Sounds to me like this gobshite has been deliberately spreading the virus as some sort of sick joke.
On a lighter note do you wear a disguise when you are stalking him ?
 
Seems very strict now, which is a good thing, you would like to think it would put the numbers down.. but who knows?

it was a free for all untill this week basically wasnt it.. but does seem to strict again now

itll put people off goin out aswell because alot of the fun has been sapped out of it
 
I wonder those of us still didn't get it, were we being careful, or super duper healthy, or we did get it but didn't realise it?

Or got it / had it and didn`t realise ?

I`m sure there`s many many of those about.

My missus and youngest lad, went out for the day on Sunday, all shared the same car for a round trip of about and hour.

She wasn`t feeling great, but didn`t know she had it, at that time, yet me and my lad wouldn`t appear to have it / asymptomatic.
