bruno22rf Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 How absolutely selfish that people are still returning from overseas and walking thru our Airports unchallenged - they should be isolated for at least 2 weeks, obviously 3000+ deaths is not enough to wake people up? This whole situation was totally avoidable and I'm sorry but the blame is with Boris. When this is all over there's going to be a lot of questions to answer.

When this is all over there's going to be a lot of questions to answer. 100% I just cannot believe the reports of people just walking in off planes and ships. There is little doubt that the farmer and his wife brought the virus back with them unknowingly and where not tested or quarantined. Stay safe Simon, common sense is all it takes. Had a couple in our village just returned from South Africa, no checks etc., coming into our relatively remote village similar to Cantley. Frightening.

Sadly it is the 'uman rights legal brigade that are the main problem they were all rubbing their hands and looking at court cases as soon as the first lots were put in isolation on return ( not sure but I believe some are ongoing on the quiet). The last thing you need when trying to deal with this situation is crowds of "money grabbing vultures" circling with treats of prolonged and expensive law suits.

I understand people coming home, but there should be checks in place for anyone returning, it's no wonder London is as bad as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bornfree Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 I drive around 600 miles a week around Norfolk. And last Thursday Friday the roads were very quiet but this week the traffic has increased to near normal levels. Weekends are still quiet.

Keep safe Smiling Is Infectiousby Spike MilliganSmiling is infectious,you catch it like the flu,When someone smiled at me today,I started smiling too.I passed around the cornerand someone saw my grin.When he smiled I realizedI'd passed it on to him.I thought about that smile,then I realized its worth.A single smile, just like minecould travel round the earth.So, if you feel a smile begin,don't leave it undetected.Let's start an epidemic quick,and get the world infected!
