Is lockdown over?

[DanaScully53]

Thought I must have missed an announcement. House down the road had 8 visitors yesterday, another has got 3 today and they're only the ones I've seen.

Maybe move away from your net curtains...

Pretty much what @Shesingsshangrila said

You need a hobby.

Have you ever considered a career as a covid marshall?

There are reasons why visitors would be allowed.

Sadly no. This pointless, needless lockdown isn't over.

Is your name Karen?

Call the police.

Or alternatively, mind your own business.

I bet you couldn't wait to jump on mumsnet and tell us all this. How long have you been thinking up that title, OP?

You need to get organised OP. A bucket to piss in and a flask of tea should prevent you from having to leave the window at any point.

If you time travel back to the end of March and post this, you’d probably get the response you are looking for.

howling at this

On behalf of Karens and women everywhere, this misogynist trope has to end.

OP, report them.

A snack, a blanket & a comfy chair is needed to go with that bucket & tea!
I bet you can do a full 24 hour mission sitting there. Take a note book & pen so you can log it all too, will be needed as evidence of you being way too invested in what others are doing

I don't think anyone cares anymore!

Neighbourhood watch strikes again. Keep up the excellent surveillance work OP...

I think the responses are due to people just not caring anymore. A bit sad, but it’s hard to get people to give up their lives and moments with loved ones for something they can’t ‘see’ personally. The news doesn’t really affect people anymore

Why haven't you phoned the police?

Why haven't you phoned the police?

Because starting a pissy thread on MN is far more of a priority!

Why haven't you phoned the police?

Do you really think this is the sort of thing the police should be dedicating time and resource to?

Can't tell if the police comment is a joke or not ...

Do you stand by the net curtains with a notepad and pen to make a running tally?

Get a life FFS.

I heard it pays well

OP is right. Folk shouldn’t have lots of visitors and it is everyone’s business if they do because infections are easily spread in the home environment.

I don’t know what’s happened to MN lately. There seems to have been an influx of very vocal, unpleasant posters who for whatever reason have decided that no-one should follow lockdown rules and those who are concerned about the rules should be bellowed at and mocked. It’s like the way some groups of teenagers sometimes behave towards their peers.

I am a teacher. I wish people would follow the rules. Not just because I am, by nature, a rule follower, but because a rise in cases will impact on my students and my colleagues (and myself) and everyone else who is out in the workplace and vulnerable to catching Covid. It’s probably different if you are just sitting at home all day, which I assume is the case with some posters, as otherwise they too would wish to reduce infections so everything can open up again and the threat of school closures might be reduced.
