not a good day today for me and Mrs B - seen and heard so many examples of the rules being broken during one trip to the supermarket and conversations with friends - who are far from stupid.
Obviously it is hard to know who is from the same household but sometimes it is pretty obvious who isn't.
Why anyone would think 'family' trips to the supermarket including kids is sensible is hard to understand.
For the first time I 'asked' someone to keep their distance in the supermarket - I know it's not easy but some people don't even try. They may not give a toss about their own well being but I care about mine.
Why my best mate is encouraging his kids and their partners to meet up at one of their homes for a pizza night tonight is beyond me. "It's ok because they are Same family".
Why my next door neighbours - who tick just about every 'vulnerable' box there is - have had their son, his wife and grandkids round today is hard to understand.
Can't help thinking that if there isn't another dreaded 'spike' it will be because of the nature of the virus rather than everyone doing the right thing. I feared that at the first sign of relaxation in the rules many would think 'ok, that's it, back to normal' and it looks like my fear may be well founded.
If nothing else it is taking the piss out of the many who have put their own health on the line for the greater good. I am pissed off enough today, heaven knows how I would feel if I were front line NHS.
