The house party thing is bloody weird.

I dont even get it.

If a mate called and said he was having one, why would you go?

In Loons Ville I guess.

The house party thing is bloody weird.

It's absolutely insane.

Not small ones either. My mate said the last one he went to took 19 bags of lemo off him so its not like people are having little dinner parties.

Maybe the neighbours are too scared to call the police. Or maybe they were all invited.

Same here, went out for my run and there was as many people out as in the Summer.

It’s probably the only thing stopping a lot of people going stir crazy.

Also I don’t think people going taking the dog for a walk are spreading it tbh, it’s the people hopping from house to house.

Can't say it was people walking their dog tbf. Borough Market was pretty busy. All the cafes and restaurants had big crowds outside getting/consuming takeaways, and the Southbank was packed. Last night quite a few groups were out having drinks. In the first lockdown that whole area was a ghost town.

I know @Brennan had some mobility stats a while back, and I'd be absolutely amazed if people are restricting their movements anywhere near as much as last spring.

They really do deserve decent fines for this.

Cases are rocketing alarmingly unfortunately.

City centre is pretty dead and SD is generally good walking around in the park and around the harbour and on the walk to the coop. I dont go anywhere else to be honest now ha.

But there's still masses of people completely disregarding the rules. There's a huge group of lads who work out all day on the bars in the park with testosterone fuelled (and slightly homoerotic) bear hugs and back slaps and my mate who makes deliveries said he went to about 10 different house parties last night.

As i came out the coop then a guy walked in without a mask and just tutted and waved away the security guard. Im was too tired even to say anything, it just made me despair. But thankfully that is very much an isolated incident.

I’m sorry I know this is a serious post but

‘makes deliveries’

Well it's factually correct to be fair ha.

There’s quite a few where I live. However they’re broadcast on Facebook and quickly shut down by the police.

Because not everyone believes in the seriousness of it and they’re likely similar people.

The vaccination numbers are laughably low. This government is an absolute disgrace. 1.5m in a month is not good enough. Summer of 2022 might be ok if we carry on at this rate.

The car wash down Green lane is still open if anyone needs their car washing essentially

Wasnt the first jab approved on 29th December?

2nd December I believe for Pfizer so well over a month now since approval. Other vaccines have been approved since which is good news but the numbers are still very low.

Been told to ring back on the 31st Jan, so that I can give blood at my nearest covid plasma centre in Speke. Got to be 28 days clear of infection apparently.
