[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2237683, member: 25851"] Good for you [USER=52911]@maglil55[/USER]! I don't understand these eejits at all! OK - they are at liberty to put their own health at risk, but it's everyone else who suffers as a result of their thoughtless selfishness for whom it is not OK. Spoke to my brother in England earlier this evening and for once we agreed politically - he's very much a Tory and I am very much the opposite, But we agree that, since this is said to be a war on Covid19, wartime rules and laws should apply, ie no profiteering, no hoarding, no looting, strict rationing and restrictions where appropriate. Infringement should lead to prosecution. Trouble is - there aren't sufficient spaces in our prisons to deal with the miscreants! So I suppose, somehow, it has to become so socially unacceptable to more people so that the "baddies" don't do it. Or maybe those found guilty should be put into work squads, dealing with other folk who are suffering. I don't know, really. My brother told me that people where he lives are now being restricted to a certain number of each item (3 or 5, I think) and are taking their shopping out, loading their car and going back in to repeat the exercise and so by-passing the restrictions. I tried to get an order from Tesco (the only shop to take online orders here) but still there are no slots for the next 3 weeks and their site doesn't display anything beyond that. Their website does say that people having to self-isolate can let them know and they will (presumably) make some arrangement. You just have to click on the box at the bottom of the webpage, But there isn't one. Really helpful. Out nearest "Click and collect" venue is in Ullapool - 40 miles away on the other side of the Minch - also very helpful. Stay strong everyone and [USER=52911]@maglil55[/USER] - please don't overdo the efforts you are making and make yourself ill again. [/QUOTE]
