Phew!

@LivinLaVidaLoki

Have to admit I secretly like this though.

What is sad is how true it is. i am pretty shocked how stupid we are in the UK and my family in USA would agree. They brag how we all get an education, but what education is it how good, can it overcome parental stupidity?

We have stated for decades western education is so good UK and USA but it either really is not, or it cannot overcome the influences we have at home.

@LivinLaVidaLoki

Good for you - some people are pathetic.

Love that meme too. I may just FB that one. I don't have many dementors on FB and none that I engage with - this may just change that.

Hi all

I really enjoyed this, written by Esther Coren.

@ineedaholidaynow

I think the issue is with FCO advice, they are now saying only essential travel to mainland Spain, which I think means your travel insurance won’t cover you but you should be able to get a refund for your holiday.

The odd thing is that FCO still say you can go on holiday to Canaries and Balearics but you will need to quarantine for them.

As I said earlier the EH1C is valid till January 2021

But travel insurance usually covers you for much more than EH1C

He he, well done Loki.

@LivinLaVidaLoki I think I have a major crush on you absolutely love that exchange!!

@ineedaholidaynow

Then go to a broker and say I am going to wherever insure me for all but covid if I cannot get cover for that.

Have insured OH numerous times for yacht coverage sailing from one country/continent to another worldwide it is all about risk which statisticians work out.

You can look up places doing the half price food now on here

Thank you for the link - it' s useful to know who near us is doing this.

Just wandered onto an insane thread about sterilising the DC after they get home or some such...well their uniforms anyway...must remember not to go there.

If you have worries, MN will soon provide you with some extra ones

@justasking111 this is what I have found on a money advice website. So I don't think it is just the insurance in respect of COVID it seems to possibly invalidate the whole policy

"What happens if I travel against the FCO’s advice?
If you travel to a destination against the FCO’s advice, your travel insurance policy will be invalidated.

This means that you won’t be able to make any claims.

Where the government advises against “all but essential travel” to a destination, you should check with your insurance company if they will cover you if you go.

Holidays are unlikely to be considered "essential" so you may not be insured if you went ahead"

I think the reason the schools didn't want uniforms when they went back last few weeks was apparently so they could ensure they wore different clothes - though remembeing what they all worn last in 7 days previous seems a stretch to me.

So there was a thing about washing the uniform every night to avoid grem spread. I was just going to get them to wash hands when the came in and before eating - and after toilet as always unless school states they want it washed every night and I'd try and comply though drying in winter three uniforms every night would be a pain.

Which is why you go to a broker rather than an online site for insurance. Set out your needs, they will oblige. You can insure for anything it is just the cost of doing that we are talking about. Spain is not going to leave british bodies to die in hotels.

Our school thankfully made no demands re washing uniform. They were back in full uniform but we weren’t told to wash them every night.
Seems a bit nonsensical to me anyway.

Have I said any of that @justasking111? I assume also if you are already on holiday your policy will cover you if the FCO advice changes whilst you are away. But there may be some people going to Spain in the next few days that have bought a bog standard travel insurance policy that don't realise that their policy may now be invalid.

Thanks @PinkFondantFancy
I think I've just reached the point where I've stopped giving a crap now.

People got carried away with it can live on fabric and surfaces - though not always in an infectable form.

This doesn’t necessarily mean these virus particles could still infect other people, says Lednicky. On the one hand, virus particles coughed or sneezed out may be covered in a protective layer of mucus that helps them survive. But plenty of other factors also come into play. Ultraviolet light can destroy the ability of some viruses to reinfect people, for example. And heat and humidity can also inactivate viruses.

So, is it worth trying to disinfect your online shopping when it arrives at your home? Lednicky doesn’t think so. Most household cleaning products won’t kill coronaviruses, he says. And even if you use a product that does, you’re unlikely to be able to clean every nook and cranny of, for example, a bunch of grapes. It is more practical to practise social distancing and good personal hygiene, he says.

They don't mention disinfecting children entering the home - but you can't cover everything in one article.

He should have insured his dick before leaving as any self respecting porn star does

I remember foot and mouth we had dunking baths for feet, then strip off outer garments in porch. It worked. Maybe a kitty litter box filled with jeyes fluid for shoes, then striptease of outer garments outside front door.

I'm the evil cow mummy that made DS2 brush his teeth in the playground. He was faffing about and I wasn't going to let him make DS1 and friend's DC late. The head teacher happened to be on duty that morning. At least the staff know that I fight valliently against DS2's ditziness.
I might not get away with that one again in a PANDEMIC stricken world

I'm more concerned about DS1's pants. He hates having to put clean fresh ones on every day and I don't have a 100% sucess rate on checking and remembering against what he wore the previous day.

Although if I let them get away with their preferred standards of non-hygiene, 2m social distancing won't be an issue...

Then they check, it really is not rocket science you know. WWW is such a useful tool.

But I guess if no-one warns them which I assume that is what the BBC article is about, they might not know. If you buy travel insurance that covers COVID and your holiday is still on you might not realise that your insurance might now be invalid as FCO are warning you not to go on holiday, and that it is the whole of your policy that is invalid not just the COVID cover.

Then to be honest you are pretty dumb. It is on the front page of every newspaper and in the media headlines.
