    Having a barbecue today. 8 or 9 close friends out the back and we’ll go inside in the evening to continue. Restrictions are lifted in my mind. Anyone that doesn’t want to go out can stay in and **** themselves all they want

    Not that they have to explain themselves. I loathe this element watching everyone and tuttutting.

    I'd say you're not far away from a breakdown yourself, folk are entitled to expect others to stay 2m away from them and not be wandering around doing synchronised screen staring while entering a shop.
    Social distancing is likely one of the keys to keeping control on this thing and exiting lockdown........ play along please.
    This virus simply isn't spreading from people brushing past eachother in the supermarket. The paranoia is mental

    I see Varadkar flying the flag for changing the 2m rule down to 1m.

    That would be a bad decision in my mind, one made for business reasons rather than health and safety reasons.

    the guidance is clear......... https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/health/covid19/shopping_during_covid19.html

    "Avoid shopping in groups "

    "Keep a safe physical distance of 2 metres from all other shoppers and staff – this includes routes into and out of the store. "

    Do you need to be told to watch where you are going also?


    Very Sad to see this attitude & aggressive tone - it is clear the "pandemic" is pretty much over in Ireland now.

    The vast majority of businesses, you can still keep more than a meter distance, this would make big difference for the hospitality industry

    Thinking of doing the same myself. The missus has a few of her mates coming over later for a coffee and a fag in the garden so ill probably light the bbq.
    Hope you have a great day

    Looks like there is talk of a second wave in Canada. Trying to find specifics but a Canadian friend of mine in the healthcare sector mentioned it

    Heineken Light only. I’m on a post lockdown diet!

    Myself and my house mate went to Supervalu yesterday about 6pm. There was no queue as we were walking towards the door so we weren't really paying attention (looking at phones etc) but the "doorman" stopped a woman right in front of us who we didn't notice so kept walking as if we were just following behind her into the shop. She was about 30 or so same age was us.

    But what was happening was she had been stopped and kept inching forward to stay the full 2m away from us but as we weren't looking we kept also moving - she turned around with a look of utter disgust/contempt and said FFS.

    This is a person with zero chance of getting the virus on a nice summer evening from two lads who don't have the virus - it seems difficult to see a flip switching on this mindset now ingrained in a lot of people - sad to see.

    i was in dunnes yest about 18.30 in swords , the fear and panic ingrained on people's faces is bizarre. Glaring at others with masks rammed on their faces. That's the real pandemic

    A negative creep that drinks Heinekin Light :pac:. Needs to lighten up.

    Think his plan is to keep everyone at home in masks until January 2021. He does get a lot of attention, though.

    The only second wave we are likely to see is one in Rosses point

    Not clear if we're on the zeroeth wave, the first wave or the second wave.

    I hope the third wave doesn't interfere with my plans to throw a Halloween party.

    What about the 4th wave, seeing Santa is over 70 he’d have to cocoon again come xmas and no prezzies .

    New cases in Canada have been stable over the last month or so, dropping slightly if anything.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    What a clown, supposedly an expert yet he adjusts his improperly fitted pound shop face-mask every two seconds.

    If you did a simple google search you’d see that there’s no second wave in Canada. The province of Nova Scotia is opening gyms hairdressers pubs and restaurants on the 5th of June. New Brunswick has had 120 cases and 0 deaths.

    But yet schools are back everywhere else with “active virus”...

    They're back everywehre else because everywhere else has a health system that can cope with a rise in infections.

    He shouldn't be going down chimneys making multiple non-essential visits to households anyway. The North Pole is perfect for quarantining.
