In my tiny village there is a retired couple who currently have their DS and family staying with them - the two GC go to school about 50 miles away where their parents are buying a house. They are stuck with GPs while the house purchase gets sorted.
The family do a 100 miles round trip each day to take the children to school. The school is now in a lockdown area because of an increase in cases, but they are still taking the children in and back each day, and killing time in this lockdown city while awaiting the finish of the school day.
I was quite surprised to hear this as the rules state that you should go neither in nor out of the city unless absolutely necessary. If it were me I would organise home schooling via the school rather than go back and forth.
I was hoping that our village might be a little non-virus haven! I am keeping away from the family as are may others, but chatting on zoom.
I have frankly lost the plot with all the rule changes - I chose not to bubble with either of my local AC, as it seemed invidious to make a choice; but even if I was bubbling, it seems to me that the whole bubble thing has been blown out of the water by the rule of six. If I went over to my chosen bubble DD during the day when children are at school, they could legitimately have 4 other people there. How then am I even remotely protected by being in that bubble?
Should women have equal pay and opportunities?
I laughed today and it felt good.
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
