H Wragg Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 My other half is going to see her elderly mum this weekend. Her mum lives by herself therefore she can still do that as it's a bubble. My interpretation anyway. I think the rule is that's fine, but only your other half can do it (or you, assuming you live with your other half and are therefore part of the bubble).If your other half has, for example, siblings they're not supposed to also visit their old dear indoors as you can't be part of more than one bubble. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 The most pertinent question in my mind that has to be asked is 'What is the end game with this?' There seems to be a feeling that most, if not all eggs are being placed in the vaccine basket with even the previous biggest sceptic of the viability of a Vaccine, Neil Whitty now seemingly changing his tune and softening to one being made available in the relatively near future.....but what if this is not viable? What if a vaccine never comes to fruition? There's not a lot being said or done to reassure folk that in the event of a vaccine failing, we can live and function with the virus in society and this, to me, is a massive question....probably the biggest one that has to be addressed. Loosening and tightening of restrictions cannot, should not and will not go on forever. In 12-18 months time folk are going to largely ignore advice and live their lives around it like all manner of other infectious diseases they may catch in their everyday lives, as government advice without an actual exit strategy will more and more just be a case of keeping the wolf from the door rather than proactively getting rid of the problem.Testing is the way forward imo.Vaccine, yes keepngoing with it but have a wider approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when he comes back up at the road this weekend, he'll have to pick only one house that'll have to commit to for the forseeable? Can't see anyone being happy abut that one! I think that's covered by the extended family rules. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn't seem to be the focus just now though. Very much get the feeling that 'well, until there's a vaccine, this is just what we need to do'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you and/or your ex are single you could form an extended household and he could go between two. Otherwise he would have to choose. Just seen your other post. Aye he will need to stay put.

It's all a bit theoretical anyway, nobody's going to stop you if you're not daft about it. Quote Extended households People who live in different places can form an “extended household” in some circumstances. People who live alone If you are an adult and you live alone, or if all the others in your household are under 18, you, any children who live with you, and the members of one other household (of any size) can agree to form an 'extended household'. Everyone in the extended household will be able to act, and will be treated, as if they live in one household - meaning they can spend time together inside each other’s homes and do not need to stay at least 2 metres apart. This will allow people who live alone (or those living only with children under the age of 18) to be considered part of another household in order to reduce loneliness, isolation and to provide mutual social support. However, we know that if one member of a household gets coronavirus, there is a strong likelihood that other members of that household will also catch it. For this reason, there are some important rules which extended households should follow to remain as safe as possible: one of the households must be a person who lives alone (or who lives only with children under 18 years old) a household should not form an extended household with more than one other household households can end the arrangement at any time, but should not then form an extended household with a new household this means that all the adults living in both households should agree to form the extended household. We would also encourage parents or guardians to discuss this with any children in their household. This is an important decision that should be properly discussed and agreed beforehand https://www.gov.scot/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-phase-3-staying-safe-and-protecting-others/pages/seeing-friends-and-family/ Edited September 22, 2020 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 13 minutes ago, invergowrie arab said: The reason pubs,cafes and other regulated indoor spaces are relatively fine compared to homes is they should have sanitation stations, rules on masks, track and trace, social distancing, ventilation etc From personal experience, people will genuinely socially distance better when other eyes are on them (i.e. in pubs / restaurants). As soon as they go to somebody's house then they'll find themselves squished up against each other on the couch which most wouldn't dare do at the pub. Basically, rules are conveniently forgotten amongst friends as soon as there's nobody there to go full Lee Wallace. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Me n current Mrs a-p are one house, a-p Jnr occasionally sharing. Mrs a-p (being an only child) has her muther as our extended household bubble. The former Mrs a-p lives alone with a-p Jnr occasionally sharing I think, as was so eloquently put earlier, he'll just need to pick ane. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
