I don’t think this is true. I’m in the building industry and construction sites haven’t been ordered to close, so they aren’t being advised on when to open.
Any construction sites that have closed have made their own decision either because they couldn’t run safety or it isn’t economical to run with a reduced staff. The single biggest reason though is a lack of supplies, manufacturing has basically stopped and you can’t get orders for plasterboard for love nor money.

Wonder how they’ll work the football if they want to keep social distancing... They’ll hardly want teams from around the world travelling from one country to another..

I've no problem with taking your children to the supermarket at all, I realise that that has to be done. It's the "other members of the family" that it's mentioning. I'm not totally heartless

I work in industry and house builders, and public bodies have had those messages for the last week or so to get reopened.

As above football definitely planned to be played to empty stadiums.
 
My little girls is the 6th of June too. She keeps asking how many days until her birthday/party . I think we will end up having a garden party (weve already had one for the cat, when her little sister was 9 month birthday and when her tooth came out )

Her sisters is in July. Luckily she will only be one so wont even have a clue what day it is.
Happy birthday to your boy for June .
Sure you will make it the best you can in these crazy times.

I have to touch basically everything to read the nutrition label and find out about allergies. It’s pretty normal?
That absolutely makes sense if you have allergies! I don’t so sorry for my ignorance there as I didn’t even consider that. As someone without allergies I’m lucky that I don’t have to check labels so would only pick up/touch something I intended to buy.

My brother is currently working on a construction site and building a multi storey car park, he said a large percentage of the people he's working with are travelling from Birmingham and going back home on weekends.

I have to pick things up to check ingredients for food allergies. Recipes change often so ingredients need checked constantly. If I then find an item has an allergen in it, it goes back down.

ETA: just saw you replied to a similar post above

Is anyone having trouble with getting their car fixed? Ours went in for mot beginning of the month (insurance would be invalid if we had let it run the extra 6 months). It needs work doing on it but the garage is struggling to get the parts, they're coming from Germany and he said production has stopped so it's incredibly difficult to get hold of things and they are (rightly so) prioritizing NHS vehicles.
My husband is still working 6 days a week though and relies on the car to get to and from his workplace.

Have people seen the news that Nicola sturgeon is releasing a paper later today about how Scotland will come out of lockdown? She seems to have been right so far in what the government have said!

So if social distancing is to continue until the end of the year does that mean the shops will open but it will be like supermarkets queuing outside and a few in at a time?
