Predictions on this evenings speech?

[Mummypig2020]

So what do people think will be said?

My DC's were so excited to see their nanny . They won't be able to socially distance. They'll be gutted.

just do it

Not everything is opening.

Swimming pools are remaining shut.

Indoor gyms.

Soft play and bowling centres.

A few others I can't remember.

Swim England have worked hard on plans to open for lane swimming, lessons and clubs but the government have clearly ignored this as they are going to arrange a task force to find a safe way to open

So you can get pissed at a pub, go to bingo and watch a film at the cinema but (if like my ds) you have a physical disability and rely on swimming for health - tough!

Has anyone heard anything about driving lessons being able to resume?

Waffle, cough, short laugh, er um......opening....tomorrow.......next day......distancing.....careful.

I'm just a really anxious person so don't want to break rules and take risks. But we have been so cautious, so careful. My mental health is at it's lowest, my DC's are all really struggling and all they want is their nanny and I want my mum .

Honestly beebityboo just let them have a cuddle. We have been so careful throughout, stuck to the rules completely. Last week we saw grandparents for the first time since March. We've been nowhere, they've been nowhere, we assessed the risk to us and them and my kids gave them a cuddle.

According to the Guardian live feed distancing will be guidance not law. (In England.)

Think I'll wait and see what happens to the cases before going back to normal. It's clear this is donor and economy led.

Do people think bus and train companies might change their advice from 4th July? The household I would like to visit is two buses and a train journey from me and all of the companies still say only travel if your journey is essential. Though I would argue that although not for work or medical appointments or food shopping, it is pretty essential for my mental health.

My kida are going to be very excited to see Grandparents! I think I will push to meet outside though or be outside for alot of the meeting.

I’m actually feeling really disappointed at today’s announcement regarding gyms and swimming

so i can go round my sisters stay there but cant hug them

So I can stay over at me my parents house but I can't hug them, is that right?

I'm finding the meeting inside difficult to imagine...there is no way you could sit 2m (or 1m) apart in either set of grandparents houses in our case. Surely they must realise that, and that they assume hugs etc. Will happen behind closed doors, and have taken that into account? I have followed the rules 100% so far (one of the few people I know who has!), but I can't imagine, if we stayed over with parents, that i will stop them having a hug with their grandchildren.

Sorry I'm repeating a pp

Hugging so faces are close is riskiest for transmitting the virus. If you have little DC maybe they can just hug the legs of GPs

think i just saw its guidlines not law so not much they can do if u go in a house

I'm talking about adults. I live a long way from my parents so would need to stay over. I haven't seen them since Christmas but not sure I could see them without hugging them

@RichardMarxisinnocent I'm wondering about this too. Everybody I want to see is a bus or train ride away!

Here's a question; would beauticians be able to open if they're based within a hair salon?...🤔 (Am aware nail bars are still currently closed...)

Nobody is going to know if you hug people inside. Honestly. I've stuck to the guidelines but if your sole concern on this point is rule-breaking rather than the virus risk then what do you think the consequence would be?

It's about the risk too, so it's hard to know what to do for the best. I just know that it would be really upsetting for the DC's to have their grandparents round and not be able to have a cuddle with them. My 5YO DD has some emotional/behavioural issues currently and the stress would be too much for her.

The hugging thing is simply ridiculous. My family are an 8 hour drive away, so I'll stay a week. If I stay a week sharing bathrooms, food etc, why on earth shouldn't I hug them?! I've stuck to the rules throughout, but I'm damn well hugging them.

It's about the risk. Parents over 70. What I'm saying is, I'm allowed to stay over, share a bathroom etc but I can't hug them?
