*apologies in advance*

lol
So we're beyond 80,000 deaths here in the UK attributed to/with COVID, so at the current rate we'll hit 100,000 by the last week of January if not before.

The rain, it raineth every day
Only thirty odd years out of date.
I went this morning to pick up my usual groceries from the green grocers, butchers and fishmongers et al. Most fine were fine... some were not.
I have no issue with queuing up in the cold because it's a choice for me to go there, but I had to speak to two people for getting far too close in the queue.
They were literally squeezing up within half a metre of me, which personally is too close regardless of being outside when you know the facts.
Nor were Adam's Apple abiding by only two people in the shop, with about four or five groups making it to seven or eight people, excluding stuff, in there.

The amount of customers is dependent on the square footage of the shop ( in our case anyway )
We’ve lowered our limit a bit to around 625 and the doors control that number.
You should easily be able to get that amount of people in here safely, but, some people are just knobheads I’m afraid.
We’ve signage up asking people to come in shopping alone, but today it’s like a family outing. Couples here with all the kids etc.
I lead conflict resolution training occasionally , and if I’m honest, it’s just not worth the kick offs you get to try and tell people what to do.
The bizzies were everywhere in March, regular patrols of stores and monitoring queues etc, now, you only see them when they come in to buy their lunch.

Getting deju vu here.
I am seeing no over crowding in shops. Numbers are still being controlled, queuing to get in the butchers, (max of 2), SD/Masks in the supermarkets, and when I drove past the Lake Grounds it was not deserted, but deffo not packed.
Not as quiet as lockdown #1, but this isnt the same as that one. It should be, granted.

Coronavirus: Company's apology after £5,000 vaccine offer
The property investment firm is accused of trying to "jump the queue".www.bbc.co.uk
Be amazed if some shady deals haven’t already happened.
Im not au fait with the regulations or how it was enforced last time but the Aldi I go to is absolutely rammed sometimes as it was this afternoon, whereas during lockdown one there was a massive reduction on the number of people allowed inside. There are never queues there now.
In the local Tesco Extra it’s not too bad, by virtue of there being a lot more space in each aisle.

Indeed. Possibly the most incorrect tweet of all time.
Well done Keir!
... seriously, the most sheltered, privileged pensioners in the country getting the jab before literally anyone else in this country in their age range sickens me.
