DIDO.1 22,840 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 I think the announcement on Thursday will start to lift restrictions on things to help mental health. So I think things like fishing and golf will be OK within social distancing guidance. I reckon garden centres will open. Anything that will help people cope as a mid way easing of the lockdown.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greb147 6,809 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 The easing of the lockdown is inevitable whether we like it or not. That may not sound comforting to those at high risk but I would sooner see a spike of infections in the summer months rather than the coming winter months. We have made a pigs ear of things no doubt but the least we can do is help relieve the stress on the NHS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plus many have increased drinking or drugs , most get less exercise with gyms being shut. Domestic abuse is spiking , there's also the worry of contracting the virus and anxiety that goes with that, or even plain old isolation and loneliness. Plenty of contributing factors there.... non of that aplies to me ,so i dont have mental health issues ,, 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with the rest of your comment though. We really don't want to drag this into winter.... 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And that is with a good fortnight of hindsight over countries like Italy, how is that fantastic? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smithie 2,443 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 I'm happy for it to drag on In to winter if the death rate falls. It gives longer to find a vaccine and thats got to be better than relaxing lockdown and loads being taken before there time.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trigger2 3,145 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 I for one am looking forward to when the kids are able to return to school. I haven’t the foggiest how they will be sorting that one but when they do the time missed should be made up over the next year, There’s plenty of holiday time in general for the time to be made up.

Why my kids are still being sent there weekly work and doing it, so why take there holidays off them ? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
