Was due to visit my Dad tomorrow. Social Distancing in their garden. Now can't, but could still go if we go to the pub - where is the sense in this new rule? Dad hasn't been out at all because of heart problem so pub is a non-starter. coincidence that another NW based member was too going to visit a family member today but now can't , also complained about could go to a pub instead all we've heard during this corona crisis is why didn't the gov do this and that weeks ago and when they do suddenly bring measures in abruptly the same kind of people are jumping up and down questioning it various peoples lifestyle and habits are playing into the hands of this virus , steps are being taken as too many are 'pronoid' Read the OP Pilch. For the record - I am not required to wear a mask because of where I live (ie: NOT the NW). I am not jumping up and down, however we would be far safer socially distanced in Dad's garden (minimum 2 metres because he has heart problems) than 1 metre plus mitigation in a pub - where historically people drink and lose their inhibitions. When I am in England I wear a mask where required, always follow guidelines on social distancing, handwashing and keeping the virus at bay. You frequenlty highlight on here that many people do not show empathy - you are equally guilty.

You frequenlty highlight on here that many people do not show empathy - you are equally guilty. because I'm fed up of anti gov supporters telling me what they could do and what they cant do, just get on with it, adhere to it and move on I've got a sister who lives in Manchester should I announce I could meet her in a pub but not at her house like everyone else has ? I've also got a father who has already spend time on a life support machine this year I've got every sympathy for you but somewhere someone has obviously got results of track and trace and a pattern is pointing at the virus spreading at homes in the NW and perhaps pubs in the NW are no different to the rest of the country its s**t I know but someone has made that rule hoping it saves lives, so many previously moaned they they should have acted earlier, it seems they have gotten that message now and still people are not happy rules are rules sorry if I upset you, wasn't the intent, patience are not to good a the moment and its easy to snap at someone

Read the OP Pilch. For the record - I am not required to wear a mask because of where I live (ie: NOT the NW).

Family - yeah but comment was my point of view. I do not live in the NWest. I live in Wales - hence 'in exile' Rules are OK - but we are in danger of becoming 'sheeple'. Hiding behind only doing what I was told has been used too often in the past If you feel 'snappy' perhaps avoid social media? We all feel different Pilch. Read through all of my posts and generally they are not negative. You (or any other poster on B&A) will NEVER upset me, but we are all entiled to have a different view point. STAY SAFE ALL

STAY SAFE ALL I wasn't singling anyone in particular out, its just that on tv and on here all I heard was I cant visit my family at home but I can go to a pub with them, and then NW man was off to Wales to buy a paper to save putting his mask on for 10 seconds what we need is the commercial union to make a government information film ;-)
