Why does the nightingale hospital need a grand opening. Yes it was amazing how quickly it was done, and hats off to all the hardworkers who made it happen, but is it something we should be praising? IMO it's a sad occasion it has come to this.

This forum is turning into the negative side Twitter a bit unfortunately. Over the last few pages the opening of a 4,000 bed hospital and the 8pm applause for the key workers have all drawn a bit of 'scorn'

Of course its a free country and people are more than happy to have their opinion but for me this negativity really is strength sapping.

And I get it, I really do, this is an extremely shit time for the many, not the few but it just seems like anything even remotely positive has to be pied.

Cheltenham festival being blamed for spreading the virus. Seems to have some truth to it too

You may have seen more/different stuff to me but from what I have seen this seems to be based on 3 or 4 celebs who seem to have had it after being at Cheltenham?
a) They could have got it anywhere
b) There were 60,000 people there, if the best the papers can drag up is 3 or 4 cases, that hardly backs up the "epicentre" theory.

As I say, you may have seen more recent/compelling evidence than I have in which case my apologies

Just been over sevenfields with the dog for it's walk. There are families playing in the streams, having picnics and generally having a good time. It is like the summer holidays.

What more can anyone do to stop it?

Noticeably more cars out on the road last couple of days, I'd expect to see more police stops in the near future. A mate got stopped on the m5 today. Allowed to go on his way as it was obvious he was working.

The weather forecast is getting better as well so its going to get worse unless proper draconian measures are put in place. Its a cliche I know but its always the minority of selfish bastards that ruin it for others.

Shoot them.

I wish I could. I would normally confront them, but what's the point? They are the type of people who just don't care.
