I've tried to stay optimistic up to now but the part that's really killing me is there is no mention in the plan on when we can stop socially distancing from loved ones. I wouldn't risk going into my parents house until I'm sure they would be safe but am I supposed to stay 2 metres away from my other half for the foreseeable future? I suffer long term for depression and anxiety and I'm not alone in that, many people are the same. I know it can't be helped but this lock down is going to be the end of some people in a different way to covid. It's just about impossible to keep my spirits up at this stage.

I perceive the risks on an open building site as absolutely minuscule, something thats clearly widely agreed upon, considering they are going to be the first to be allowed back (officially). I'm not willing to hide in my bedroom for another 2 months and I wouldn't dream of snitching on hardworking locals.

On the other hand it is hard looking through it thinking that we might not see friends or family until late July, the 20km limit is definitely one of the things I can see people really not bothering with the longer it goes on. Not a huge fan of Leo nor do I particularly dislike him, but listening to him speaking on the Late Late makes me feel a bit more at ease and clearer on the whole roadmap.

There is no experts only Simon Harris who has experience with 18 previous corona virus so at least he knows his game

It doesn't help that my child had no playmates and looks to me for constant attention. It would wear anyone down. I said my living situation in not nice but who exactly did I blame?

As a father myself, with more kids than you, I know that it's feasible to manage kids once you put the right effort and energy but you can't/shouldn't use C-19 as an excuse IMO. You seem like the type of guy that sherry picks what posts to reply to...you coward away when you are stuck. Bravo for your replies an no I won't delete my post and I stand by what I said.

phobia2011 wrote: » Not really about snitching joe, it’s all well and good, god forbid, you get the virus, touching **** on site, unknown for 2 weeks, then spread it site wide. The fact it has no signs for 2 weeks is the problem, kill off parents and grandparents or even ill kids. But at least you weren’t sitting on your arse. The government have said they will pay you 50-60% of you wages to stay at home, unprecedented. But crack on, sure we’ll be kept!!
JoeA3 wrote: » Yes, I accept there are risks of course, but you wouldn't open your bedroom door in the morning if you took that to the absolute literal sense. Every time you step outside the door, there's risks! How is the risk going to be any less in 2 weeks time when the site workers are officially allowed back anyway? The health authorities obviously believe that construction is the least risky sector, hence they are first back.
