COVID-19 — Coronavirus

Really pissing me off , kebab shops open , takeaways open , hardwhere stores open , dry cleaners open , there’s even a vape shop near me open , it’s a fake lockdown & some are actually benefiting

Dry cleaners/laundrettes have to be open. Numerous households don’t have a washing machine.

Kebab shop at the bottom of my road is open.....shouldn't it be shut?
Are kebabs essential?

Takeaways can open so long as it's only a collect service with social distancing enforced.

Surely they have a sink and running water.
That’s better than what we had when I were a lad

We’re not really in lockdown. Seen loads of people out and most shops near me have barely any social distancing measures in place

Got to say my trip to the shop today was an eye-opener. I want to see the traffic report. Way more than I expected at 4.30. People in town as well. Like a quiet normal day. Ridiculous.

Andy Burnham called out people using the quiet roads to drive fast on earlier on. I've half an idea my neighbour is one, thought he was going to work but no, looks like he was taking his mate's lad for a drive in his 1997 Datsun Celica.

Wait, no! I've not gone full rear window yet. I'm not sat here getting more and more obsessed with my neighbours. I've ALWAYS hated this one guy! He's back, as I type. Screaming at everyone. I don't want to know when he's at home or not but short of filling my ears with cement, there's not a lot I can do about that. I bought these bloody expensive Bose noise cancelling headphones to deal with the problem, but it turns out they perfectly isolate the voices from my other neighbour blasting out Radio 4, twenty-four hours a day.

Why am I seeing different numbers ? Just had an alert 938 have died today but sky numbers were lower

UK v England only numbers?

Not essential in my view

Not low altitude. Just practice approaches. Specifically this one : https://www.aurora.nats.co.uk/htmlAIP/Publications/2019-05-23-AIRAC/graphics/97055.pdf

Had a look on flight tracker,was 2 on the deck at Manchester,both had no call sign.
Would/could they have been militarily?
You obviously know your stuff regards that.

A second UK care home becomes a COVID-19 charnel house. 15 deaths over the last few days with 5 more tested positive. This time in Luton.
Terrible news.
My thoughts an prayers are with them their relatives and friends.
