Is this good news?

I believe everyone should just be patient and wait to see what will actually be announced. The whole world is in an unprecedented crisis and governments can only make decisions on data as and when it becomes available.

Therefore whether it is when the lockdown will be eased,or who we can meet and under what circumstances, then only time and patience will hopefully yield results.

The whole point of the lockdown is to prevent the NHS from being totally overwhelmed by the crisis and through that save lives. We seem to be achieving the foregoing but further patience will be required by all for a considerable period of time to maintain that which is at present ongoing.

Sorry, mine was to paddyanne
In fact, I heard her

Did you miss her speech where she said small bubbles of people could meet as restrictions eased then?

Today's paper says clearly 'Nicola Sturgeon has raised the prospect of people meeting a small bubble of people outside their own households'.

This is not being proposed by NS.she has daily said that lockdown will continue for a long time and that there will need to be a new normal when it ends .IF we get it under some control like NZ and Greece then that scheme may be possible .

No, I posted mine on the lockdown fraying thread.

I have 3 AC who all have children/spouses/partners in 3 different households

So goodness knows what we'd do.

When I first read it I thought it sounded like a good idea but after thinking about it decided it wouldn't work

I also have 11 in my immediate family! So does that mean we leave one of them out?

Tea for me, please!

Oh yes!

I have been so carried away with GN I forgot coffee!

I think New Zealand is trying this method.
Perhaps we should wait and see.

Like trying to keep water in a net.

Exactly.

I've just posted about this on the Over 70 thread. I think it was Over 70.

The people in our cluster will consist of people who have their own cluster.

Doomed to fail

Unfortunately, yes MawB ??
I realised that I might be accused of appropriating the gentle Good Morning thread for news which could, more properly, be accomodated here, although more posters might well view it in the aforementioned thread.

I’m getting a sense of déjà vu
(Isn’t this the same post you posted on Good Morning? )
