I’m going to have a big house party for a pilot study

[solarlights]

I’ll get everyone to do a lateral flow test first but then no restrictions. Seems like lots of this is going on at the moment so why not?

I'm there

I'm there. I'll bring some of my mates too from other countries. They're wealthy and like football so all ok.

Yay! Will there be snogging of aides while dancing to 'One Rule for the Rich' by Omnishambles?

You could draw your own QR code on a bit of paper with a sharpie and get guests to take a picture of it

😂😂😂 just had a row with my husband about this (he doesn’t think it’s got anything to do with money and what the people who have it like to do 😑🤔🤦🏼‍♀️) so now I’m thinking maybe I should join you and put his theory to the test by having my very own Test Event

If we drink enough alcohol that will kill any germs so we'll be fine. Count me in

Seems reasonable to me. As long as you call something a 'test event' you seem to be able to discard every rule. What time do you want us there?

Fab. I'll be groping one of my old uni mates in a corner.

If any of you then test positive, the rest of you won't even have to self-isolate because then you can set up another trial where you just do daily LFTs...

And make sure you don't publish the results of the trial until someone takes you to court

This.

All you have to do to protect crowds from covid is invite an international football team. Apparently.

I’ll come but only if once I’M home, you declare your house a red zone and everyone else who came in good faith but hasn’t left yet has to quarantine for 10 days and pay £300 each for day 2 and 8 pcr tests.

I’ll come!!

I'm in. Could do with some snogging to find out if my taste buds are still working.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 this thread is gold!

Is the party in Barnard Castle so we can test our eyesight?

Can I come too?

I do have confirmed covid but don’t worry, I’ll come on the train so it’ll be fine.

And make sure that follow up to your test events only requires a day 5 test for an illness with an incubation period of up to 10 days (or more in a very small % of cases).

Better still if only between 25-45% on the people at your test events bother to take that. Guaranteed success.

I'll be there! I work for the UN.

And I've a pal wants to talk trade deals, can he come too with his team?

Great thread

Are you a donor to the Tory party? If so, crack on.

I've just done a trade deal in the Middle East and will be flying in to your party without quarantining because I'm so very important! Woo hoo can't wait!
