        Hi @roders ,

        When did Boris say no.
        You only self isolate if you or someone you have close contact with has it.
        This is another instance of people not listening correctly. Even the National Trust are opening up all their parklands/outside areas for free.

          There's a difference between not socialising and locking yourself up like an idiot. He has said go out and get fresh air, walk your dog etc just keep away from other people.

            Good morning I am trying to self isolate as much as humanly possible but ,I do take country walks on my own my furry friend Penny, but then I always have,in fact self isolating is almost what have been doing for a long time so its not to bad for me,unfortunately had to visit the chemist yesterday to get Mrs Woos and daughters medication,so with about 20 people there and had to wait 45 minutes but we were all sensible and stood 6 ft apart,there were a couple of people moaning and ranting at the young lady behind the counter but I soon sorted them out,and they walked out,they are now giving everyone 2 months supply which is a good thing,I thanked the ladies behind the counter for their dedication and work,and that brought a smile to their faces bless them,I am very fortunate that I have a wood and a field very near to me,anyway have a lovely weekend and keep smiling;):blue thumb:

              KFF I expected you to say sorry Roders I didn’t realise you were in the at risk group:help:
              And I am certainly not an idiot as you implied.
              I don’t think you like a few others realise the gravity of the situation.
              Do you really want us to be in the Italian situation.:th scifD36:

                @roders was this bait, mate;):biggrin:

                If you are at risk then by all means self isolate,:smile: but I'm not going to be hiding whatever Boris says.

                I've got no work next week because they have whipped up everyone in a frenzy, the supermarkets are totally full of people shoulder to shoulder trying to buy food.
                Some of us are just buying the normal amounts.;)
                It aint gonna work.

                Unless they starve us all to death :biggrin:

                        I'm off to get a lottery ticket. Even if I won, I couldn't go anywhere but I'm not giving up my daydreams about all the good I could do :)
