I’m still pretty amused by the idea of fronting up your internet bravado in a phone call tbh.

What difference does a phone call make to this place? It’s not exactly anonymous here

Send your number we will have a conversation.

Why? What pearls of wisdom am I likely to receive?

Tried it. Was out of service a bit like you two swerving cunts.

Hi, is this the place I go to get a weird guy from Derby to shout at me?

Asking for a friend.

No mate you have no friends.

I don’t get why he can’t say what he’s got to say on here?

You’re coming off as a bit desperate mate, maybe time to log off for a bit?

I think we can get a flounce here...

Do you want the honours of starting the placeholder thread?

I don't think that's a good thing. This has all gone a bit weird.

Media? Bunch of nobs.

You could be Matt Hancock's support act, get the crowd warmed up before the headline act comes on.

Listen dude I don't really care much, just want normal life to crack on. Was a Gavin a few pages saying my posts need to be ignored? Fuck off nobhead.

Wait, what?

I've honestly no idea what's going on, but no offence was intended. Although I do feel like I've missed something along the way...

Can we get back to talking about Covid-19?

Can we get back to talking about Covid-19?

No, this is much more interesting.

The restrictions look to be changing again, I’m hoping car dealers start to fill up.

Also, more welcome news.

What do we think about this track and trace thing?

If you've been near someone who has tested positive you'll be asked to isolate for 14 days.

Sounds fine in principal, but has potential to be far more disruptive than the old advice.

One person in a workplace could test positive and the whole shift end up having to isolate? Seems a bit off until they car really get rapid testing nailed, plus antibody tests and a green card of some sort for those that have already had it and are unlikely to get it again

I think you’re right, maybe the government can back it up with a furlough scheme aimed at employees who can’t work from home but are asked to self isolate?

its all a bit reactionary now imo. having been to a few parks with my Mrs and little one I’ve the last week or two (at toddler-o’clock before too many people got there) there were loads of people already clearly doing this (unless there are some seriously off households out there!)

Did I hear it correctly about Track and Trace??

They’re only asking you to self isolate if you’ve been within 2m of an infected person for 15 mins or more??

That was the original advice waaay back at the start, that it required close contact for longer than 15 mins to infect someone.
