Call it paranoia call it what you want but we don't know the facts all we can do is minimise the risks, oh n we can use common sense to decide whether or not its safe to brush our teeth! Yay, common sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and Granny Brexit? Poor try Gaz Cuntface. I've been shopping 3 times in the last week and all 3 stores are insisting on only 1 person per household in the shop. Tesco were enforcing it to the letter on Saturday and making people wait outside or in their car while their partner did the shopping. Yeah only one of us goes in. We were doing that prior to the shops enforcing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one of you are going along for a nice wee drive / sit in the car then that person isn't 'minimising time spent outside of the home'. There is no need for two people to go shopping when one person is capable of doing it. But you know this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 The Italian Government has said that some businesses might not be allowed to reopen until a vaccine is found. Which, of course, could be years or never. The important words being “might” and “could” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in ASDA last week waiting while a guy a couple of metres in front of me was picking something from the shelf and some daft wee lassie sauntered past me about 30cm away from me and made a snidey comment about how I was just standing in the aisle. When I pointed out that I was waiting on the guy in front to make sure there was a gap she gave me another dirty look and then brushed past the other guy. Some folk just don't give a f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 1 minute ago, The DA said: I don't drive and my wife has asthma. She drives, I shop. Then that's absolutely fine. It's clearly something that one of you wouldn't manage on your own. When two fit and healthy people are doing it, though, that's needless. It's certainly not minimising time spent out the house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adders Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 5 minutes ago, Thereisalight.. said: Personally for me it’s a struggle to stay indoors and look at four walls. I had a bereavement in Feb and not being able to go out of town to get things or just for a change of scenery gets me down. Getting out for the one allowed exercise a day keeps me sane and helps to clear my head a little (I have depression). There’s no comparison between exercising indoors and getting out in the fresh air and seeing nature With all due respect we're not talking about a choice between what's better than the other i don't mean to sound disrespectful, but i think training at a gym is better than at home and outside, i could even try n argue that the gym kept me sane, as a release, but we're not applying logic to be honest are we, while it did improve my mood hell of a lot overall it did not keep me sane, nor will it keep anyone sane, it helps massively don't get me wrong but exercising high intensity setting your mind to the task, then cooling down by your back door or window will release the endorphins in the brain giving you a lift n give you a bit of fresh air, not ideal n definitely not my first choice, but we're not really in a position of choice are we. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went over this two or three weeks ago, so I'm loathe to repeat myself, but there's extra risk in the event of a breakdown / accident, for one example. Besides which, it's clearly not minimising time spent outside of the home if one person goes along for a recreational drive. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
