Krapow Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 All shops to open on Monday here in Engerland. Then hopefully restaurants as sit down next, pubs, gyms etc in July. Getting emails from my gym saying how it's going to work. The High Streets around here are well busy again, only public transport is still down, massive queues at bike shops. Even in Northern Ireland i'm seeing posts on Facebook from people I know moaning about having to go back to work 😆 They should be lucky they have a job to go back too, there's going to be carnage soon. People have had enough as well, especially when they see mass crowds at beaches or protests, outdoor raves or whatever. Thankfully it's pretty much passed in London, as no way would a 2nd lockdown be adhered to. People haven't been able to go to family funerals, missed the birth of their children or whatever, and are quite rightly pissed off with what's going on now. It's the hypocrisy from the leftie media that gets me, 2 weeks ago you were the devil if you went out, now it's laudable apparently! Boris's limitations are also getting more and more exposed as this goes on. Vulnerable and children from a poor background are getting more at risk, with what to me anyway, it's the Unions trying to make the Government look bad re opening schools, children suffering. I'm happy it's opening up, but incredibly frustrated and pissed off with what's currently happening in the UK for a few reasons. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones that know something that everyone else doesn't, the special people, the ones that have the likes of Jake the Asshole to tell them the truth. The ones that know it's the NWO or the Illuminati, or giant green lizards, the NWO who control and instigate everything, the all powerful and all seeing, but strangely don't seem to have a utube log in or control to shut down Jake. I think we're just lucky that Jake has them sussed, and has found some way to stay alive and online to tell the enlightened what exactly is going on along with telling us the Earth is flat.

I find it odd then that when things seem to be quietening/flattening now in the UK there are countries facing ever increasing problems such as in South America, India and even Sweden yet their leaders are loved and trusted despite the catastrophes affecting them. I have almost given up on the media and as for the BBC, well that channel would make my dad turn in his grave. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yessongs Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Here locally restaurants started re-opening the Ist, with patio seating now beginning. Alot of restaurants have now built concrete foundations outside in this city called "Los Gatos" where they can start to begin serving people. At least it's a start and hopefully in July a Phase 3 will let my gym open again. Yesterday we went to "Pedros" Mexican Restaurant, I woofed down my Enchilada in record time. I could have easily had another LOL! That one picture of the 2 story used to be a "mortuary" back in the early 1900's, now a restaurant. Calif weather in full swing now....feels good. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a nice meal out... I'm sure a lot of people will be doing this. Tired of eating at home. I worked in Los Gatos back in the late 1970s at a place called the Courtside Racket Club. Lots of high rollers even back then. The word was the Los Gatos Ferrari dealer was #1 in the US. Even before it was Silicon Valley.

How do we try to protect those people who are at the highest risk of having a severe outcome? And right now, if you’re over age 65, you’re male, if you have underlying heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, renal disease, certain lung cancers or blood cancers or if you’re moderately to severely obese, then these are all risk factors for developing the disease. And I might add to the obesity piece, which is something very near to the hearts of your readers here — healthy lifestyles are so important in reducing your risk for severe disease.
