FWIW, I've attached a couple of links below to some homeschooling resources which may help to add a bit of structure to the process as well as providing a more diverse set of learning tools than you have at present. https://uk.ixl.com/inspiration/family-learning?partner=google&campaign=9681303299&adGroup=99694700579&gclid=CjwKCAjwwYP2BRBGEiwAkoBpAqD5j27mlA6gxKzvLDanXEXKwUhjHRO30i00k_iBCr5iMT2nUS-GeRoC17IQAvD_BwE https://home.oxfordowl.co.uk/ I'll ask my teacher buddies whether they can recommend anything and will PM you if they do. Thanks 86. We do the bite size and maths factor stuff online. Teacher has been great with writing material and her reading is phenomenal (she doesn’t go to sleep at night, she just lies in bed reading her books) but anything with variety which helps is always appreciated.

You joke @Eddie but I walked around Elvaston Castle today and I would comfortably say 62% were overweight. I’m not just talking a BMI measurement here but proper over weight. I travel with work to Eastern Europe a lot (well did lol) and I can tell you now those countries are NOT overweight and eat far healthier. It isn’t a coincidence.

However many folk still saying we should have locked down 2-3 weeks earlier. I continue to believe that the Government knew how long a lockdown could be maintained for and they had to try and judge the best time to do it. (Let’s not open the question of if they did/didn’t choose the time well). Just saying the country’s culture isn’t to stay at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one will be that stupid to turn up to the ground, surely. Regardless, no fans in the stadium at all. Put peoples health and safety first.

So you see, allowing them in isn't the only option after all. In fact, I'd have thought all of my options would be considered by the football authorities/Government/Police before giving your "only option" a consideration. Opinions, eh!

Put peoples health and safety first. I wouldn’t be surprised if a few turned up to see the players arriving etc. But, not in great numbers and easily dispersed by the police. Of course it would be different if Leeds were in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
