Am I the only one trying to come up with lyrics to Pulp so I can do "Common (Sense) People"?

Road usage is only up 3% from last Saturday apparently so perhaps we aren’t all as stupid as I thought.

Wait until next week when temperatures high the mid 20s

Meet you at the end of the pier down skeggy. Assuming it’s got a pier.

The place to be is just outside a delightful place called Ingoldmels. Drove through once never got out. One of my daughters commented that you could catch an STD just by looking out the car window - it’s truly hell on earth

Don’t tell anyone but I’ve actually been there. Worlds worst fairground. Fantasy island.

She been to an 80s reunion I take it?

I'm out on my local high street to go to the butchers. It is significantly busier, lots of traffic and people shopping as families. Expecting 'common sense' from a population that contains demonstrably thick people was never going to work.

You literally have the mindset of expecting everyone to stay in their houses forever till we find a vaccine

last time I went there as I drove in (about 6:30pm) there was a drunk been loaded in to an ambulance on one side of the road and an emergency glazier boarding up the front window of an Indian restaurant on the other.
By the end of the weekend my son declared he 'loved Skegness'.

Wish I'd known that before I'd spunked fucking thousands on foreign holidays, could have just driven to Lincolnshire.

Well it does because he’s moaning about people going outside or shopping, who’s to say they aren’t social distancing?

and hoe does that equate to staying in lock down until a vaccine is found?

Because people should be allowed out providing they social distance

And? How does that equate to FPs post suggesting we should stay in lock down until a vaccines found?

No we want people to be sensible until the r rate and new cases is at a more manageable level. It was likelytobe only a couple more weeks but now itsbfucked

I had a mate call me last night, the one who tried to kill himself and I still haven’t seen in person since. He’d read the papers and was convinced lockdowns over and wanted to know why I wasn’t coming over for a beer. He wouldn’t accept that we aren’t allowed right now, says he knows loads of people who are going out. Was getting personally offended when I said no.

What do you do with that?

find out where they're going?

BBQs and house parties apparently. “Pubs will be open next month”. He’s not, shall we say, the most aware person. But there comes a point where saying “common sense” just leads to people looking at the majority and taking a “well if they can why can’t I?” Approach. In his words “we’ve done this lockdown for weeks and it’s made no difference so what’s the point?”

Anyway, more bothered about trying to explain why I couldn’t see him without triggering the stuff that made him want to top himself.

How do you know it’s fucked, we’re on the way down in terms of trends why do you always look for the bad in everything

 

[skybluetony176]

Don’t let Grendel know he’s already called me irrational for even considering that and stated my son is more likely to die on the way to school.

Cheeky c**t

When I heard him say that I knew that I’d definitely be making the right decision keeping my kids of school.

Because the trends are basically flat if you take away outliers like bank holidays.

We are now getting 3500 plus new cases a day which is liable to increase as more people venture out.

The r rate was increasing pre loosening as well so it is likely this will get worse.

Ffs you are an arse kissing cap doffing moron

We’ve plateaued except for the R rate which is rising.

Yep, and you should think yourself lucky you have that choice. Me and the wife are both key workers, therefore our youngest has to go 3 days a week while we are at work. If we had the choice, we'd keep her off too.
Our lad is in year 10. Williamson announced it's year 10 that will be back in school first. I'd rather not send him, but how can I tell my daughter it's safe enough for her to attend school but not my lad?

I’d be in the same boat but my wife has to shield. Feel for you.

Of course the cases are increasing as we are doing more testing, if you actually stop and think for a second you’ll realise the more tests done means the more cases we pick up

Last Saturdays numbers were for bank holiday Friday. So effectively weekend numbers. Can’t compare them really.
