Usually I go there with the pre-printed label attached to the box, the lady scans it in with a barcode gun and then I drop it in the corner of the room with other parcels. I need to send something to USA. The An Post website doesn't say which services are available and which are not. Is it only open to old people who collect their pension in cash or can you drop parcels?

Can you highlight the bit where you explain why July makes more sense than May? For the benefit of the rest of us who are unfortunately having trouble keeping up with your thinking.

So some people won't give there own ideas or when they finally do refuse to discuss them further. It's akin to shouting and moaning from the sidelines and then refusing to go on the pitch yourself. An argument for July would be we're likely to have the ability to have increased testing by then.

GaryByrne wrote: » I'm a barber myself and if we were told to reopen I think it'd be very irresponsible of the government As cross contamination is fairly high in our profession. Imagine one person gets his hair cut and he is asymptomatic he is using the same gown as the next person sits on the chair infecting him and 50 other odd lads in for a fresh fade The same clippers, comb, the close contact for both the barber and the clients completely removing social distancing, which would deem the whole lockdown a waste of time. Unless of course the government can put in place some kind of ppe for barbers and masks for customers. But they are running low on ppe globally, its very hard to call, I'd love to be back cutting hair by then but I also know the risks involved and would rather not open and have an outbreak when there is no real guidance in place yet.

Do you think that cosmetic brands will try to come up with some sort of shield that can be applied to the face, which can then allow make up to be applied by an expert. And hence something similar could be worn by those getting a hair cut - like a shield/mask

It's nearing the end of the academic year anyway, students have been off school for weeks and exams are messed up now. Why would you ever take an enormous risk like this after the sacrifices people are making to stay home? It's nowhere near time to reopen schools again here.
