Good news for those living alone.....but

I was an early developer, thank you very much!

Showing your age there Missadventure!

Be careful, growstuff
What do get when you meet a guy?
A guy with a pin, to burst your bubble.

It's very confusing. I thought he said the bubble had to be one person on their own who wasn't shielding, can mix with one other household only. Not mix and match with whichever household they fancy on the day. Is that right?

So I just asked my mum who she would like to see as her bubble partner, me or one of my two sisters (we all have families).

I’ll have a think about it and let you know next week was her answer!

Or divorce papers - now there’s an idea.

Correct, Lucca at least not at the same time as you. There’ll be rotas being drawn up all over the country.
My son sent this text earlier: ‘So I can go and see a giraffe but I can’t see you!’

I think I'll have to join a dating site. My headline could be "looking for the other half of my bubble" (or something)

So once again it’s all as clear as mud. If I go into my Ds and Dgc bubble my ex husband can’t ? Or their kids then can’t go into their friends house ?

That too, Hetty.

MamaCaz, I was thinking of the disappointment and upset caused when a grandmother refuses to visit!

Oh well, at least I avoid that kind of upset.

I can imagine the upset this will cause.
For example, a family with children, and two single grandmothers both eager to be on the 'bubble' with that family.
One way or another, there are going to be tears.

Got it in one Hetty !

I am pleased that lonely people can meet with one other person or household. It does not affect me, but I really feel for those who have coped with a very lonely situation.
However, as Chris Whitty explained this evening we are not at the end of the pandemic, but in the middle of it. The Science would indicate that we could see a rise in cases as we go into the Autumn.
I am strictly abiding by the guidelines, DH and I seem to have had the virus, but there is no evidence that we could not be reinfected or infect someone else. That someone else could be a dear relative or friend.

We understood from Prof Whitty that both halves of the bubble had to be from a single Adult household. The BBC seem to be saying something different...confused..

Clean britches and toothbrush packed. I’m ready to go ??

I've obviously got the wrong end of the stick, and I was really concentrating, too.

It's a trap, clearly. Parents wanted back at work, schools unable to look after the kids - suddenly, there's concern for 'lonely' people. So (like lambs to the slaughter) it's grannies to the rescue. They really must believe that we're all fools!

Yes that's what he said MamaCaz one person, not a couple.

I'm so lonely I haven't even got anyone to bubble with.

That's so sad

And it doesn't apply to those who are shielded, of course.

As far as I can work out, one 'half' of the bubble must be a single person or a single parent. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I understood it to mean two families can merge?

I'm really excited about this! Can't wait to get my hands on the GC!
