Re: Coronavirus
Do any of you actually go to bed?
Let's just wait and see what transpires from our government and try to get along without any of this carping shall we? Tis the season of goodwill after all.

Re: Coronavirus
Not confirmed by the government yet but the government is considering delaying the start of the next school term in the New Year.
https://www.tes.com/news/exclusive-d...tart-next-term
Quote:
The Department for Education is expected to make an announcement about the potential later start tomorrow, according to sources close to the DfE.
It is understood that the later start would be for secondary schools and that the delay could be as long as a week.

Re: Coronavirus
It will be interesting to see if the infection rate / death rate increases after the Christmas relaxation rules go back to the tier system. Could be a week or two after, that any changes will be seen. I fear people forget that a virus is not aware of any festivities - it will carry on regardless of what events are happening.

Re: Coronavirus
Looks like we escaped the punishment.
We (East and West Sussex) were on the speculative list together with Brighton and Hove which is the real hot spot.

My brother who lives in Gosport with the parents suggested Portsmouth, Gosport and Havant in Hampshire were highly likely to go into Tier 3 as the local MP was very pessimistic yesterday..

That'll be because the QA hospital can't cope at the best of times unfortunately.

Yep back to take out tea or coffee..in the rain and no shelter anywhere on the seafront. That's 12 eateries in this seaside town including 4 pubs losing money at this time of the year plus the little independent shops that really need to make up for lost custom first time around.

Yes one of our family went there last year after a accident and it was not too good then.

My parents when our lot are up there visiting them often go to the local eateries and pubs and one wonders how many of them are going to survive now.
