Lol I think a lot of us are trying that. It might not work, but after a few glasses, who cares?😀

Water, not alcohol! :laugh:

Just looking at the news you can see why they have to treat the public like we are absolute tools. The minority make it worse for the rest of us. 
 

I guess the justification to send the advice to all households is that people can’t say they didn’t know. 

Screenshot from a FB group earlier this week! 🙄

I believe it was cancelled in the end but only after concern was raised by numerous people.

Not everyone has access to the internet tbf.  And half of the stuff online is wrong now...  Unfortunately my Dad is one of those that believes everything he sees online after years of telling me not to trust people in real life. 🤦‍♂️   He's one of those trying to wash the virus away by drinking more. :rolleyes:  And I've got 3 elderly relatives with no internet access at all.  Hopefully they'll watch the news on TV or hear it on the radio, but I guess it's still a choice to do that, whereas you can't really avoid a letter, you have to physically do something with it, even if that's just picking it up and glancing at it whilst walking it to the bin.

My problem with the letter is that everything is changing so quickly, I don't see how a letter written last week can still be totally relevant & correct now.

Yep, I'm doing that alright!! :wine:

Tbf if they're all gathering around these masts it'll only take one with Corona to take them all out...  They won't be socially distancing or coughing considerately as they don't believe it's spread like that.... :laugh:

What's worse is she was the one giving out the advice in Scotland. 🤦‍♂️

I thought she was just concerned about the Scot's and personally visiting each one to deliver the guidelines. :wink:

Was being the operative word: thank goodness.

I'm SNP and respect the FM's views/decisions but I could not condone that.  There is absolutely no excuse and you cannot retain your position after such an infraction of YOUR OWN guidelines.

Is that it?  It looks fake!  Surely someone with an Etonian education can write better than that... :unsure:  Someone should've suggested Grammarly! :laugh:

What's the point of that?  The postal service is under enough pressure at the moment!

The letter came 2 days go, nothing in it you don't already know, has an illustrated tri-fold 'brochure' in the envelope with it giving you instructions of how to wash your hands, social distancing, work and travel etc. No stamp, it's just being distributed by the PO. The however Million it cost was for the printing and paper, Just another item of junk mail!

I'm gonna keep mine and take it to the Antiques Roadshow in 2060...  Be worth a fortune as the rest will have all been binned! :biggrin:

Sell it on eBay like all the other junk.
Surely whoever wrote it and then put Bojos digital signature on it could have done a better job of proofreading it to omit the poor spacing and to word it at least have a try at making sense.

Sent from my SM-G965F

The letter should have been printed on bog paper, at least then it would have been of some use!

Don't know if any of you play cards against humanity but I've just seen how well they fit the envelope on FB, it's even the same font...  :lol:  This is one of the more forum friendly ones! :biggrin:
