I find it pathetic as a nation we can't not drink

I agree with you 100% on this, so many people on my social media already saying they need a drink to get through this or posting pictures of how much booze they bought including my sister who has bought enough wine to host a festival. I find it quite sad the level of reliance people have on needing a drink.

All I need to get through this is my family

The little one is keeping us on our toes

Wife is doing so well proud of her

I mean the working every shift they txt me can I come in for is great because out of 34 we have 12 off this week sick or isolating.. so it's been a good week so been giving me a break to get out

Have broke into the Easter eggs tho lol
 
Never through my routine would change so much

On work days wash hands. Drive work. Glove on to press car park buzzer.. leave glove on seat

After work drive home wipe down car with detol wipe (and the glove)

Detol all door handles on front door

Wash hands

Shower and change (work stuff in wash)

Least it minimises the spread
 
Being a bit of an aircraft nut I often look on Flightradar24. Tonight, 1 plane over Spain, 1 over France and 1 over the U.K.

Shocked... this is a bit scary...

Huh? Theres loads more than that, both on flightradar and using my eyes out of my window. Down about 75-80% as a guesstimate, but a lot more than one plane in the sky right now!

Who washes their hands after bringing their bin back in , seemingly Bin Men touch around 2000 bin handles a day that could spread the virus, just a thought.

I’m a religious hand washer after most tasks, and extra after touching a bin. Don’t open doors when out without a sleeve if I can help it.
I don’t like being ill so do all steps to avoid.

I wash my hands every time I touch the bin whether that's throwing a couple of items into it or taking it out/bringing it in. By the very nature of it it's going to be crawling in germs.

Are we a nation of clatty filthy unhygienic animals? Why do we need to be told to wash our hands???

As I said before Scotland have no different policy of testing than the rest of the UK.

Very few are being tested at the moment including the over 70s, this is apparently to change shortly.

How did Charlie Get his test with only mild symptoms I wonder.?
Minister was asked exactly that on Peston but didn’t answer the question, poor from the presenter letting him off easily.
Frontline workers are more important than him.

He's the next in line, end if discussion really as to why he got the test.

Whether you agree or not is a different matter but a pointless debate as it's not going to change a single thing!

Yeah I wondered that as well, but I think I heard somewhere you can pay for a private test.
