Page 4 | Which tier are you?

Tier 2. We've been expecting it but it will not make any difference to us personally, we haven't been mixing with other households and DH and I can still go out for lunch dates together which is our favourite benefit of WFH.

Gingerninja4 · 12/10/2020 19:58

Tier 1 despite fact our cases give from 10 per 100,000 to 92 per 100,00 in last 4 weeks So pretty obvious rule of 6 not working

Feeling if was in North the increase would ment tier 2

Mum2threejs · 12/10/2020 20:02

Tier 1 I think?? My area isn’t listed on sky’s list for tier 2 but for our local levels I would have thought we would have been tier 2. I’ll just have to wait til Wednesday for the govts postcode checker thing to launch to find out I guess

Sunshineandflipflops · 12/10/2020 20:03

Thanks for the clarification. I have seen more in favour of keeping support bubbles than not as the afternoon has gone on.

Popcornriver · 12/10/2020 20:04

There's less restrictions under the new system than there is today. The cases in my area are shooting up so I'm sure this will help

Trinacham · 12/10/2020 20:11

1 I think. East of England

Deelish75 · 12/10/2020 20:12

Tier 1 (Kent)
I’m from Merseyside though and my heart goes out to all my friends there.

@Clearasmuddypuddles I'm also in Notts in a district with less than half the national average rate of infection yet lumped in with the county. Its 25 miles from here to the city which is really the only place with very high infections. If I lived in Ilkeston 7 miles from Nottingham I would be tier 1 as it has a Derbyshire postcode. Yet again the governor using a broad brush approach which just doesn't work.

TwentyViginti · 12/10/2020 20:28

2, Nottingham.

downandout1000 · 12/10/2020 20:31

Manchester

Clearasmuddypuddles · 12/10/2020 20:32

@EnglishGirlApproximately ridiculous isn’t it! They are are going to lose compliance in those areas when they do need it in the coming weeks and months as everyone will have got fed up of the restrictions.

Grapesoda7 · 12/10/2020 20:38

Tier 2, I need to look at the rules properly as I'm getting confused at the no non essential travel but I can go in somebody's garden (but can I travel to their garden??)

iamme21 · 12/10/2020 20:43

3

OneForMeToo · 12/10/2020 20:43

Tier 1 in the east anglia

Merinocool · 12/10/2020 20:45

Tier 2, Cheshire.

EnglishGirlApproximately · 12/10/2020 20:47

@Clearasmuddypuddles I honestly don't think people here will comply. We've had low rates of infection all the way through and people have had enough. My 80 year old Dad has already said he isn't going to sit in his house all winter on his own and if he gets fined then so be it. I find it hard to disagree with him tbh.

@timegoesbysoslowly

2 - am confused if I can see my partner. I live alone and see him on his days off. Don't have parents or friends, so if I can't see him it's going to be a very very lonely winter.

I'm struggling with my MH as it is He's recently changed his job so see him less anyway. I've not really left my house since March, only going to local shops. Plus still coping with my parents deaths.

So understand rules have to change but seems cruel to cut off people who are alone and I hope I've misunderstood.

You can meet outdoors including in your garden Assume those is meant to be 'distanced' though

Actually , if you live alone I think you can still have a support bubble as one household

FecktheBoss · 12/10/2020 20:54

Just wondering if DD can travel to tier 2 area for uni or not

Mindymomo · 12/10/2020 21:05

@fecktheboss, yes DD will still be able to travel to uni, they are not closed and she can access travel to education.

RunningNinja79 · 12/10/2020 21:07

I live in tier 1 and work in tier 2 (I live a couple of miles into my county). I also have a lot of friends in tier 2.

3littlewords · 12/10/2020 21:10

3!

Chickenfingers · 12/10/2020 21:10

Tier 2 - West Yorkshire. Wasn't part of local lockdown previously but I am now. Which is ridiculous, my area wasn't even on the radar last week but now I'm in the same category as some that have scarily high numbers.
I'm on maternity with a 7 month old baby, still playing catch up to make sure my baby knows her grandparents enough to be happily looked after. I'm not stopping visits again.

Devlesko · 12/10/2020 21:12

Tier 2 and slightly better I can see my grandchildren outside. I don't care how cold it is we are wrapping up and going out tomorrow.
I'm over joyed, have cried buckets, believe me.

LindaEllen · 12/10/2020 21:15

But to be honest, as far as I can see, nothing has changed with the recent upping of restrictions. I walked through the town centre and there's groups of teens hanging round, people in pubs with little social distancing, photos on social media of people I know meeting with people outside of their households.. I honestly think a lot of people have given up with the restrictions and it won't matter what those actually are anymore, as they won't be followed.

If anything, it makes it harder for me. My anxiety won't allow me to even stretch the limits of the restrictions, I haven't hugged my mum or dad since March, and I can't for the life of me see when I will next be able to.
