can’t be good for the environment really - we get several amazon deliveries a day - often just one item sometimes just a couple of £

i just answered to door to them dropping off some red wine vinegar that cost £1.99 and was ordered at 20.45 last night - the service is amazing really
You beat me,2 days ago we had an Amazon delivery of one chocolate bar,cost £2.75.Free delivery as we do Prime.

Best of it was Mrs was supposed to have ordered 10x choccie bars.(can you tell things are getting desperate regarding choc supplies.)

its really not going to happen if you are not in a at risk group - look at the stats, it's fraction of a % for under 45's and that's including the "at risk" under 45's - take them out and the number is almost zero !



As I say protect and lock down those at risk ......... but not those there is basically no risk to, that's just silly !
But then you have a source for keeping the virus going as it can easily infect non at risk people who are close to one another and by defaut will go on to infect more vulnerable relatives if they are not very careful. A lot of more senior teachers will be in the vulnerable group as well

Buying new livestock and qurantining them on farm for a few weeks and testing them for disease is in your opinion not necessary either.
Depends on your perspective too from an age point of view. Plenty of not so rare examples of younger people having severe complications after having it and not a lot of folk have picked up that there a quite a number of others with now long term organ damage especially the lungs.

Maybe The Scientific and Chief Medical Officers know a little bit more.
Not our ones ? we ran out of Covid cases a month ago, so they imported some from the UK and let them go for a drive...

...the length of the North Island :facepalm: ...


.... without waiting until the test results came back....


..... some of these "experts" obviously never grew up on a farm!

At least they did not take public transport
Which is a massive blessing.
They only managed to contact 364 people, or whatever phrase the media use to describe the possibly affected.
But the story keeps changing, for a start they didn't stop at all, then they stopped and peed on bushes, then they stopped once to ask directions and gave the helpful person a hug and a wee kiss..... ?
