His risk is that should he contract it he has more possibility of needing much more care and possibly worse. Indeed... Forgive me... I should have put "... at greater risk from the virus" as opposed to "... of contracting the virus...". School boy error on my part! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some who will though - people who assume that the rules don't apply to them. No apologies for likewise being just as serious. I got that impression... and just to clarify, I most certainly wasn't inferring that you would (break the rules). Quite the opposite, in fact. ?

Ghost of Clough Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Who would be willing to confront their neighbours if they weren’t following the guidelines? My neighbours on one side host a little garden party every Saturday with their other neighbours. My neighbours on the other side have opted to throw a birthday party for one of the kids and invited several of their family members round.

Wouldnt bother me in the slightest as long as they were being sensible. My parents came round for my birthday last week. Hadnt seen them for 6 weeks. They sat on the opposite side of the garden and didnt even get within my 5 metres of me. That was not following the guidelines. The following day I was in the supermarket with people I have never seen before within a metre of me. That was with me doing my best to follow the guidelines but of course it is not always in your control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did all of these politicians that have flouted the rules have the press following them around for weeks after? Not much point sending you your £5 as it doesnt sound like you will ever be leaving your house again to spend it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must confess, coming to Britain at the moment is the second-most stupid thing anybody could do. The most stupid, of course, would be coming to America It was a bloody awful film.

Incidentally, what winds me up is the people up the road having a street party. All they need is a slogan - I suggest "Let's celebrate the contribution made to this country by the veterans - by killing them". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
