like you say no one bated an eyelid at it. once things opened again it was a bun fight.

Bated eyelids are what caused all this, aren't they?

Eldest has been told to self isolate as their teacher was tested for COVID.

Can’t even go out, even if he gets a negative test. He’s 6 FFS

He shouldn't have a test unless he starts to show symptoms.

Covid test centre seemed to be operational again at Wavertree Sports Centre yesterday.

Probably cars from Aberdeen and Exeter in the queue

So I've heard, I thought the idea was also you can get a test to stop you from self isolating but apparently this isn't the case

Unfortunately not. Isolation from being in contact with a positive case is probably the most frustrating one. At least he doesn't have to have a swab stuck up his nose. It's not nice.

I think they test at the back of the mouth for kids, regardless I have my youngest birthday on Monday and he's in lockdown until the 12th, absolutely infuriating

If he was 7 and at home he'd be one too many

I assume the teacher is showing symptoms? And this is primary? If a teacher tests positive here then there's no need for kids to isolate as we're keeping 2m from them.

Yes you're correct. 

When you say here where ae you based? Yes this is primary. The letter says they recommend that my son self isolates. I'm legit confused

English Government again refusing to stop people from lockdown areas in England travelling to Wales, leading to the f***ing ridiculous situation where I can't go walk the beautiful* Pen y Fan Horseshoe loop which is 7 miles from my house but just over the border in Powys, but someone from Greater Manchester can.

*not today like, it's f***ing pissing down

[Senrab_nhoj]

I love that walk 

[Tommok]

So what do we reckon the briefing shortly is going to say? Further restrictions or just reiterate the importance of the existing ones?

[Romario]

I hope they've come up with another catchy phrase. I live for these. 

Lock down to live long

Wash your hands that's the plan

Wear a mask don't be an ass

......

[Tommok]

"Don't kill your Gran, man"

[Falconhoof]

Go the pub

get flirty

be home by 10.30

[Romario]

Close at 10, saves ten men

Close at 11, we're all going to heaven

 

Isolate forever, that's really clever

 

[cymrococh]

Let your kid 
Get Covid

Yeah I think primary is harder to maintain that 2m compared to secondary where I am.

Pretty long and intense days at the minute.

Very little resemblance to the profession I entered.

Staffs, kids, parents still for the most part brilliant.

All of the above will burn out soon.

A half decent apology but highlights yet again how they don't see the rules applying to them.
