Hmm, I know which is more likely to save me!

That last paragraph surely is a must - Hospital staff / care home staff has to be a must. I just don’t understand why sending all children/young adults back to school / universities doesn’t make this essential?

Not sure Becky, why?

What amazes me is how have those that are vulnerable (and dying because they are vulnerable), picked this up. What have they been doing and more to the point who has been meeting up with them to put them at risk.

The way the government record covid deaths is odd.

if you test positive for Covid and then happen to get run over by a bus and die within 28 days of that positive test then its still recorded as Covid

In other news, I sunk every penny I had into opening a budget friendly B&B out here in Slovakia, I managed to open for 1 1/2 months in the Winter and about 2 months in the Summer we were sold out and absolute proof that we could make a success of this, that money went towards food, the electrician and gas fitter.
Winter is here again and bookings are looking grim due to constant lockdowns & a rule requiring people to have a covid test done every 3 days to be able to ski & snowboard plus the government threatening even stricter lockdown measures, unless things change to something resembling normal then we have enough money until March and its likely this dream is over. I'll have to come back to England and find another job to at least pay the mortgage.
on top of this I became a dad for the first time a little over 9 weeks ago, he spent the first 4 weeks of his life in intensive care with a blod clot on the brain and was given an equal chance of being healthy/disabled or dying, again due to covid and the bats*** crazy rules I wasnt allowed to be there for the birth or his time in hospital, only my fiance was allowed to see him for 2 hours a day. Thankfully he is home now and flourishing.
