Just hearing on the news that there is to be another 3 - 6 months of this restricted movement/lockdown - quite how we are all going to survive this mentally and financially is quite worrying indeed........

Gosh michael. That's been a lot going on. I am with you, we can carry on and really, we need to. The more that can work safe the better, its adding to the economy. You are not doing anything wrong there mate!
Spoke to my mate in the fire brigade today, hes been told at a meeting that prepare for the lock down to be lifted around 14th April. Apparently the government have done some maths and have realised they cant afford it much after that! How true this is remains to be seen!
One woman the other day in a supermarket queue reckoned two years!

yes alot going on nearly went for a van on contract hire dam glad i didnt now ! yeah im not as busy as usual i think people think i cant work to be honest but its still early in the season to so maybe just that problem with all this is its not clearly reported in the media my local BBC keep saying only essential travel like for food or if you are a key worker then they had a bit on friday morning about all the business now doing delivery on crap you dont need ! how they dont see the mixed messages i dont know ! My sister works in the hospital and she seams to think the social distance part of all this may go on until September as for the lockdown she dosnt know but cant see it being over this month myself !
