I don't think the NHS app is working as it can be manipulated to suit depending on your morals.

The fact that BJ and Rishi have now decided not to be part of the pilot shows a LACK of leadership in my book!

Problem with the app is that it is not reliable enough. To many people are being pinged when in reality they probably haven’t been in close contact with anyone with it. Others like myself were pinged at work randomly but luckily we have Covid testing kits on site. We all tested negative so ignored the ping. Does that make us morally wrong? Some of us based on that experience decided to delete the app as there is a danger of people self isolating for no reason, especially troublesome when you only get paid SSP at the company I work for. I’m double jabbed and if we all exercise common sense we will get through this. There was a great program on the Jeremy Vine Radio 2 last week about phantom pings.

Agreed, also there have been a few younger lads who couldn't wait to get sent home even though they were fine.

Boris Johnson says “some of life’s most important pleasures and opportunities are likely to be increasingly dependent on vaccination”

everyone can go clubbing up to September.

From then you need to be double jabbed.

it's unfortunate, but it's not compulsory to be vaccinated.

Some people's will have got collected as normal. If yours didn't, try again in 2 weeks, then it goes monthly.

I'll put them back out in a fortnight. Trouble is the boxes are pretty much brimmed every 2 weeks, 4 weeks will need bigger boxes.

It’s an inconvenience that’s for sure. However, on the flip side, maybe there is an opportunity for ALL of us to look carefully about what we buy and the consequences of the waste we have to dispose of. For instance, wine boxes instead of bottles, still produces waste but the volume to dispose of is less. Bottles of fizzy drinks instead of cans, cheaper and less waste. In our house I meticulously crush all cans and as best I can plastic bottles. Plain brown cardboard boxes the type Amazon deliver and such like I rip up and they go in my compost bin. All shredded documents too. We have a Britta water filter and the water bottles I take in my van get filled repeatedly for very little cost. Tea and coffee is nicer too. Just need to think outside the box sometimes. Did you know that cardboard can generally be recycled only seven times before the fibres breakdown and are rendered useless?
