@ImAllOut

Restrictions don't work anyway when you could just drive to Hereford tomorrow anyway and do whatever you want.

Yes if people choose to be total dicks what can you do?

@IdrisElbow I'm so, so sorry. We have just changed Christmas plans after vehemently saying I wouldn't. It's not worth it.

I'm so sorry about dad. Xx

Oh idris, I'm so sorry Flowers is your mum still healthy atm? And apart from broken, how are you feeling in yourself now?

We had a call earlier too that a friend of my DW died this morning. At home, completely unexpected. Similar for a friend of mine too, a couple of weeks ago. Neither were old either. Mid forties and early fifties.

Thankyou, it is just truly devastating. And the truth is, absolutely none of us knows how our bodies or our loved ones bodies will react to this virus.

I am really speechless here, Idris. We've been following the rules but still didn't quite realise just how serious this is because we've been very lucky not to have anyone within our circle who got ill or died. I have my uncle on the frontline, he's a doctor a year before retirement and we were concerned about him, but he's been extremely fortunate so far. It's one of those things, I didn't feel invincible, but equally I was probably arrogant that we'd all be fine. Your story has really brought it home now, you know. I'm going to crawl back to my hole and shut up about non-essential goods, there are far bigger and more important things in life Flowers
