So only "no movement" would be logical. I.E. a total lockdown. In general there seems to be a lack of evidence that a "total lockdown" actually achieves much in the medium to long term. So, as an alternative strategy, what next? With most of the country seemingly being shepherded into trying to operate under Tier constraints that are somewhat more constraining than the "total lockdown" constraints, other than a few tweaks that seem to be straight out of the F1 books of "rules and how to interpret them" one has to wonder what which game we are playing here. |

Our local DPD service is also good when I have been connected to it but I am given to understand that is not the case everywhere. Also the old version of the App worked brilliantly for a while but when they "updated" it a couple of years ago it stopped working on my phone. Bought a new phone today so I'll see how long this version stays working in parallel with Android updates. Or lack of them. |

I suggest that one of you tenthers try and find our house with the our postcode depending on whose system you use it varies by a fair bit and for years we have had problems with deliveries, so much so we have to sort each other out with other peoples stuff being left at our door and vice visa

In our area the Nightingales are opening, but I wonder whether that's because the NHS hasn't gone into panic mode and cancelled everything else this time. So it's just a bit of extra capacity which always helps in the run up to Christmas. We're very lucky, I do know a couple locally who tested positive and despite being in their sixties both have so far just been "feeling quite poorly". The husband went back to work after quarantine, it will be interesting to see if the "long Covid" effect floors him again. I still don't want to catch it and am happy with Hands, Face, Space. I've never been a touchy feely person anyway so my "mental health" isn't compromised by social distancing. I don't see it as an infringement of my civil liberties but a sensible precaution we can all take. I blame social media. In the past conspiracy theorists were confined to audience-less soap boxes in Hyde Park. Today their views can be mainstream in your living room. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk |

I keep seeing some pretty awful pictures popping up on my fb and twitter feed from Bahrain. I'm waiting for the highlights and hoping what I'm seeing is not as catastrophic and bad as I think.

It appears not to be - the outcome seems to be OK, without giving anything away!

Grosjean is fine, just minor burns to hands. Sitting up in hospital bed and speaking on social media.

An e mail arrived from the MG Car Club which included the below pic, I frankly didn't know what to think!

Seems Grosjean spent within two minutes all the luck a man can have during an entire life, if not more.

I was not a fan of the Halo but thankful no one listened to me. We watch Grand Prix's and see the cars spinning off into the gravel with no harm. This accident brings it home how dangerous our sport can be. The sight of Roman stepping out of those flames over the barrier was met with relief and then horror.
I guess this will be his last race in F1. Shame to end this way.As they say "he went out with a bang." |
