hi guys,

I live 30 mins drive from my parents who are in their mid 40s, they also live with my younger brother. We are normally very close and we havents seen eachother in about a month (since law have suggested that we should stay at home)

We stay at home, my husband goes shopping once every 2 weeks, my baby who is 8 months old havent been out for the last month.

We understand the risk of going out and we even stopped walking together or exercising...
I am wondering if in UK we are allowed to visit my family on Easter Sunday?
I am asking because I know they are safe,
we arent sick either.

I am very annoyed because I have friends who visit their families or siblings who they not live with all the fricking time and I am sticking to this quarantine but a little bit fed up now knowing that peope still visit their families and I havent,

I really want tl go to see them on Sunday, what you guys think?

Half the population have zero common sense

Definitely. I mean it’s just common sense to at least read the OP’s posts in a thread to see what the situation is before replying....

My neighbour 2 doors down is having an Easter gathering in their garden. She's a teacher at the local primary school and I've heard at least one other teacher and a few extra kids...

Just why? On a purely selfish level, don't they want to get out of this lockdown situation as soon as possible? That's without factoring in the pain and suffering that unnecessary gatherings might cause when people potentially catch the virus from each other.

The OP has totally taken the advice, I think she knew anyway.

My NDN has been living somewhere else and renting out the house. His tenant moved out a few weeks ago. He drives back every few days to mow the lawn (no staying in one house for him) and yesterday and today there have been groups of people coming to look round the house. Then today two builders and a woman (van and a car) turn up and unload breeze blocks and panelling.

It's pathetic. For some, life just seems to carry on as normal.

Are people really this stupid?

@JoeySpecial, that wasn't the cleverest question for you to ask, given you were telling OP not to do something she had already said several hours before she had no intention of doing.

Absolutely @CaroleEffinBaskin. Surely anyone can work out that it makes sense at least to read the OP's posts before posting something that has become totally irrelevant?

This country is fucked because people can't read plain English.
