It seems that the PM Boris Johnson is going to announce a
change in the lockdown restrictions on Sunday, or so we have been led to
believe. The government are now
backtracking a bit and saying that the changes will be minimal. This is hardly
a surprise as the moment it was announced some of the media were implying we
would be able to rush off to the beach or have a wild party with all our mates
in the park. This is clearly not the case.
I intend to remain very cautious although social distancing
is getting trickier as I discovered today in the local but small supermarket.
They have a one way system and have boxes which you enter to shop as the person
in front leaves. The plan being that everyone moves round the shop at a safe
distance. Well today a significant number of shoppers had abandoned this system and were just going
up and down as they pleased and were happy to stand close to others in order to
get what they wanted. This just makes it
harder for the rest of us.
I now know of another friend who tested positive for
Covid-19. Luckily they are recovering well and have been allowed back to work.
They are a health care worker in a hospital environment so were always at a
high risk of getting the virus.
The news coverage on TV continues to give us every possible
option on the economic future of the UK. I think the reality is no one knows
because it all depends on a vaccine and that is probably a few months away yet
at best.
A good place to hide
