Tell you what this pandemic is teaching me.

How pathetic some of my friends can be.

Friends wife has received a text to tell her to isolate.
He's therefore deleted the App in case he gets the same text.
He also says he will go to work even if his missus tested positive.

How do you even deal with that?
You report him to the Police and laugh at the £1000 fine he gets.
 
Maybe, just maybe, don’t have so many people inside your house that you struggle to stay a metre apart from them...

I’ll remember this next time you whinge about tighter restrictions being put in place though. Hypocrite.
Oh right

So it's my fault for having two kids then right?

Me and the wife are breaking lockdown restrictions by having kids now?

Again talking bollocks
 
But it’s still the rule whether you choose to follow or not.

However you responding like that highlights why we’re heading into another lockdown.

Well I don't think socially distancing inside your own home is actually a rule is it?

The rule is not having someone from another household round?

There's not really any chance most people can socially distance in a house. It's why if one person tests positive, they all have to isolate.

But then if someone in an office tests positive, the other workers don't have to isolate unless they develop symptoms, which is daft.

Yikes.

My daughters are constantly hugging and kissing me mate and the boy has never known what personal space means, plus I occasional exchange fluids with the wife, then there's the Grandson who at 3 years old doesn't know what social distancing means.

Social distancing inside a family home is impossible.

I think you’ve both misunderstood what I said. I’m talking about people breaking SD rules inside their house as in those having house parties, those having friends over and not distancing/disinfecting etc.

I’m not saying people are meant to SD from their own wife as much as some might wish that was a thing.
 
@Kenshin and @Nymzee it looks like there were some crossed wires.

I won't put words in Nymzee's mouth but I took his initial post to mean that people weren't following the rules re. people coming round when they weren't supposed to (a fair point).

There's no real way anyone in the same household can socially distance unless they have a rota of when they go in certain rooms etc. And obviously if you live in a small flat that'd be impossible. You're breathing in the same air and touching the same stuff etc etc

Can just take extra care with cleaning and washing hands I suppose, and then not have people round

Right, why do people keep thinking I’m talking about people social distancing within their own household bubbles? Have you all been hitting the Peroni hard tonight.

See my next post but the post before this one you've quoted I actually did defend you, just didn't tag you in it!

I was a bit confused by your post that I replied to but I didn't misunderstand your initial point.
 
Let me clear it up because people aren’t reading properly.

- I don’t believe most people SD when they have friends and family over inside their houses, or having parties etc.

- I’m not saying people should SD from people they live with as that’s bonkers.
 
Have to laugh at all the im alright jack types you see on social media tonight rejoicing that we are locked down again.

Im not against it like but those celebrating a lockdown whilst people lose livelihoods, suffering from mental health/anxiety are no better than those calling it a scamdemic etc. whilst people are losing loved ones to the virus.

Both types utter pricks imo

Good news for you mate is you can still see your parents if you want. You can form an exclusive support bubble with another household.

Then also you can meet 1 other person from outside your household outside at any one time. But it's bloody cold, like.

I think you misunderstood him while calling him an idiot and a hypocrite
