as hill mentioned, that the 'poorer' areas don't get left behind in terms of local amenities

I wouldn't even say the poorer areas. More the hiding away from real life suburbs. Finham springs to mind. (I've also lived there)
There is absolutely nothing going on there and they are up in arms about any change.

Things like people actually staying at home if they are ill rather than going into the office to spread it around.

That would take a bit of a shift, mind. I've had two periods of illness since June, and they were my first illnesses since about 2015. I've noticed if I take another one before the end of December, I automatically get a warning.

So there's not much incentive for me to do other than struggle on, if they're non-Covid ailments!

I'd be happy for all the little signs staying up reminding strangers to keep their distance in queues and that kind of thing but I can't wait for the day we don't have to bother with masks.

I'd be happy with the Russian vaccine but only if they release it and let others confirm it's safe and effective rather than IS GOOD, TRUST ME COMRADE

I’m absolutely the same. Saving me 2 hours of travel a day, plus the cost and the freedoms to exercise longer or get a head start on housework during my lunch hour. My employer has said we will largely be adopting homeworking after this, which is a relief.



How would this work in practice? Genuinely curious as I’ve never thought it started too early for people to get a proper night’s sleep. I mean, go to bed at a relatively sensible time (10-10:30) and you’ve got opportunity for a good sleep already surely? And given the majority (albeit a shrinking majority) of parents will start work at 9am

I find it very hard to get going early in the morning as more of a night owl. The main thing though is teenagers, they genuinely need more sleep than most

I'm able to go into the office when I please now, apart from when we're in full lockdown, and it suits me down to the ground. Probably do two days a week there and the rest at home. We're likely to stay that way too.

I will mot likely avoid applying for or accepting jobs at places that aren't majority WFH now.

Fair point. I live in Finham and thinking about it when things are back to normal if I was still working from home and decided I wanted to pop out for a coffee or to grab lunch unless its a pub visit then its a case of getting in the car to go somewhere.

You'd hope if more people are spending their days in the local area then the facilities would improve. There's plenty of places that would be well suited to cafes, coffee shops etc. Would be great to see smaller, local, businesses thrive.

Limited knowledge, but isn't cancer a bit of a catch all term for loads of different things so extremely difficult to find a cure for it.
