Rob85 Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 So long as she's doing something different to Westminster that's all that matters, if Boris Johnson had locked England down totally, she would have opened up Scotland just to be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVB Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 I sold my Defender yesterday to bloke from Edinburgh. His mate drove him all the way down to Essex where he picked up the car and drove back again. Said he didn’t see any police let alone the mythical roadblocks that are apparently in place.

Dave at kelton Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Here we go again. Just need to see the small print to see what we are allowed out to do. Will it include going out on my own on the Merselocally? Perhaps I should have got my last flight in this morning. Heard the big guns booming out whilst walking the dogs.

Dave at kelton Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 Taken from the regs just now so fishing and shooting allowed within the rules local outdoor recreation, sport or exercise, walking, cycling, golf, or running that starts and finishes at the same place (which can be up to 5 miles from the boundary of your local authority area) as long as you abide by the rules on meeting other households Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docleo Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 It was not essential, no matter how he considered it, and was not allowed. This is the reason why we are in lock down again. Way too many idiots around. Too easy to blame NS or BoJo for the restrictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money talks and the things people seem to class as essential are ridiculous.
