And Then, Out You Go...

   Seems yesterday was the first day of day release and all those interviewed by those TV folk were besides themselves with excitement at being able to sit in the cold with friends or be able to go into a shop. Don’t take much to get some folk excited eh? And all those folk will have a jab-pass, right? Oh...
   During our amble about in the car we passed four hand car wash places and going by the extraordinary queues, cars are also excited to be able to get about and meet other cars again and get their paintwork tidied up.
   Anyhoo, those overexcited folk may have missed our tussle haired ‘leader’ stating we should expect a rise in co-co cases with this so called relaxation of the lock-up regulations but the roadmap will proceed as is. Bet you didn’t think that was a possibility did you?  However, wot he said in his head was, “How very dare some businesses wot sell alcohol  still be in business after being shut for all this time. I’ll give it a slack handful of weeks to the next turn of a ‘U’ shape and go back into shutdown.”
   One ‘interesting’ bit I heard was an interviewer, talking to a pub owner, say something along the lines of, ‘...but I’m sure many people will be fearful of coming out and mixing with other people.’ One wonders who’s been pumping the fear message into those folks heads every minute of every day for a year. It’s a mystery is it not?
   In other news, that jabber-dabber-do thingy’s back at the number one ‘news’ spot with the exciting reporting of tremendous uptake by those now ‘eligible’ for a poking. And the NHS, blessed be its name, wibbly wobbly web site crashes due to ‘huge demand’...
