I know things are great with hindsight, because even I was complacent back in January but some of that was due to the Governments reaction to it, they weren't panicking, so why should I. My thoughts were we are an Island, that creates no border difficulties, you just close up shop. BUT it never happened, people were still freely walking into the UK unchecked. Now 3 months on we are in lockdown, but as someone mentioned earlier, the horse has bolted! Too little, too late. As Italy proved with the South, if you control the movement and look after your boundaries, events like this would never be felt on the scale we see today. It's like the Great Fire of London, if you build your houses without boundaries, then you are going to burn in hell. I'm all for freedom of movement as long has you know what your letting in. But if people think this will be all over in 3 weeks, then you live in cloud cuckoo land.

It's how we do things. Like we were talking about the other day brb. a graduated response, the country is the patient. Then when the **** hits the fan, do what we should've in the first place.
 
Haven't seen a full list but i would imagine yes. work on repairing fork trucks and if they break down deliveries don't get made and things don't get moved around factories.
So factory workers are on the list you’ve not read as well then?

If i haven't read it how would i know?

You do know factory's produce parts for machines that process food don't you? and ventilators for the NHS just little things like that. Raw material comes in quite heavy loads but hey, who needs em.

I told the kids that I used to drive a fork lift truck when I worked in a factory aged 16...they thought I was soooooo cool...until the next time they good in a mood and decided I was just a bald **** again <laugh>
 
Unfortunately he is just another example of a thick prick :grin:

You're the only clever one Diego :D

I do think this will have some effect, it will stop the mass gatherings we've seen over the weekend so that's a positive, but it is mixed messages when it comes to limiting people going to work or going out for other reasons.

61 mate and it's no guess, i have said it more than once on here and Stan has it logged. He isn't sure about both my parents though but certainly one of them.

Stalker Stan <laugh>
To be fair I thought you were older than that.
