The whole nurses can't eat off applause schtick has (rightfully) been said since what April/May? Whether it's copying Slimming World Recipes (carrot cake overnight oats anyone?) or making witty remarks and politica digs, she has zero original thought!

Maybe she wants to be a 5G truther because Denise Welch has gained so much traction

Indeed. Never let the truth get in the way of a good story and some midday rabble rousing though, eh?

If going to Asda twice the day after being laid up on the sofa with severe COVID symptoms isn’t screaming “I don’t give a fuck about you little people and the rules don’t apply to me”, then one wouldn’t like to guess what is.

On the restrictions, they aren't as non-sensical if you think about it.

A children's birthday party of 30 people - even outside - is likely to involve far more close, personal interaction than a grouse shoot on a moor (not advocating grouse shooting, just pointing out it's not a close contact sport.)

Similarly, at a wedding people are more likely to mingle with everyone there. The occasion usually involves hugs and dancing, even well intentioned people may let their guard down in the moment. However, if you go to a pub for a meal, you aren't going around and greeting everyone there.

The pubs are probably at their worst when people have drunk too much as reasoning breaks down, so a curfew that stops friday and saturday night drinking is not a bad idea (especially as getting wasted also puts pressure on health services.)

So the rules may seem a bit silly (the pub isn't guaranteed covid free at 9:59pm and a covid hell hole at 10pm), it's just a case of identifying which occasions, activities and places provide the best environments for covid to spread and limiting them.

Whether this will be enough, I don't know, but if you think about it you can understand what the reasoning is.

The thing that jumps out to me is that SB's sister is 9.
SB's dad didn't waste any time did he?
