Wrexham and Flintshire - close to the Cheshire/Merseyside area where imo lower tiers made them skyrocket by importing cases from more locked down areas - are now the two most infected areas of Wales. Denbighshire which was one of the lowest now also in top half.

Wonder why? Doubtless the government will work it out by Summer.

Wales has been more locked down than Merseyside or Cheshire for 3 weeks, so not sure why that should be.

There must still be restrictions on vaccinated people as it is not known whether they can still transmit the disease or not.
In fact as far as I am aware vaccinated people still have to comply with government regulations the same as everyone else.

Fair point. I just got the text from my Mum telling me the good news.

The reality is that people will start to behave differently when they have been vaccinated but I take your point that at the moment, practically it doesn't make much difference it terms of what they can do and what they can't. The mental relief will be significant.

Why do people feel the need for takeaway coffees. Make it at work or at home instead of queueing outside Costa and the likes. There is a pandemic ffs

One guy I work with its his exercise for the day. every lunch break he takes a 20 min walk to his local costa and back. Its a target for him with the coffee being the reward for doing it.

you should try and get your son to throw the bread in different spots around the canal rather than in just one place as they just pile on top of each other and you could actually injure them.

Nah next time I'll take my baseball bat that'll sort them next time. Cheers for tip though.

I wasn’t aware the vaccination gave you immunity.
We are told it just means when you catch it you aren’t ill, but can still spread it.

It gives you a sliding scale of immunity from not catching it thru not getting ill to being mildly ill. At some point along the scale you can still infect others too.
So its not going to be be a case of stopping wearing masks etc.

See this is exactly the problem with all these regulations and lockdown arguments etc. Nothing wrong whatsoever with what this guy does and he probably walks with his coffee and doesn’t use it as an excuse for socialising. However, some are just doing it as a reason to flout the rules. As usual it’s just common sense, but unfortunately a large proportion of the population have no interest in playing the game correctly.

Why not take a 30 minute walk and make a coffee when he gets back. Save queueing for 10 minutes and about £2.50 and extra exercise. No brainer

Went for a short walk around the block to get some air.

Congrats to Altrincham Market, who have clearly decided to work around the rules and stay open.

Couldn't believe the amount of people all queueing for stalls and vendor trucks serving coffees and sourdough loaves.

All stood chattering away with their £3k French bulldogs and Monclere three quarters.

Scum.

Hope you are feeling better and gradually getting there bud! Onwards and upwards now.

Many hard yards left for everyone to be vigilant and look out for one another, but hope springs eternal!
