Now now that’s a bit unkind. We all know a society that cannot function without shithouse paper is doomed.

To forum members in the Flintshire and Denbighshire area it looks very likely there will be local lockdowns soon.

I have heard local lockdowns described as closing off the corner of a swimming pool when someone has peed in it which I thought was a fitting analogy.
The whole virus-control business based on testing to find cases is a self-licking lollipop which was inadvertently made clear by the director of public health for Peterborough and Cambridgeshire the other day on the radio. Throughout the plague Cambs has a pretty low level of recorded cases and the director started off with the official line that if you have symptoms you must get a test.
However on being probed by the presenter she admitted that getting a test in Cambs could be difficult and you'd have to be persistent because due to there being a low level of recorded cases there's not many test bobbins available - test bobbins perceived to be surplus are being sent north to areas with a higher case incidence. Of course that means people in Cambs are not getting tested which is keeping case numbers low.
Anyone with a functioning braincell can work out that therefore it's better not to get tested and life can carry on as normal as possible, although I'm pretty sure that wasn't her intended take-home message

Why not just lock down North Wales?

What's Shropshire like at the moment?
Touch wood it’s never been bad around here .
A lot of people in Ellesmere go to Wrexham to shop I think , as it’s only 8 miles away .

Think transmission of the virus amongst farmers has been low but maybe I'm wrong?
