    I won't lie, I'd quite like it for a bit longer. Pollution down, community spirit up, the footpaths on the plain near me are quiet because people are not driving 20+ miles so their dog can crap in Tidworth, wife on fulough so I'm getting constantly overfed/massaged/etc and I've done more bike miles in the last few weeks than all of last year.

    It worries me that infections are still going up...he's looking to follow Trump and relax things because of the economy not because of public health. It's a bit too soon but the behaviour scientists are saying we'll all decide not to bother soon anyway

    Then if I reopen the office and someone gets infected it's down to my duty of care to be scrutinised and it's me who goes to prison if it's shown we hadn't done everything in our power to stop it. So I've had to spend on PPE, extra cleaning, distanced desks...

    Safer to stay as we are for another few weeks!

    The easing of the lockdown restrictions is arguably a much trickier problem than the lockdown itself.
    We have a woefull capacity for stupidity, just look at the loo roll panic buying.

    I hadn't seen that but that's another detail to add to the pot.

    The government have to juggle a lot of balls and very carefully.
    I wouldn't fancy making the call.

    I live on a main road and my house has been wonderfully quiet these last few weeks.

    Apart from not being able to ride when I want I’m actually REALLY liking this lockdown malarkey and I’d like to think people are going to realise that we can make alot of these changes a permanent part of our everyday life.
