    Imagine said worker passes it onto an elderly relative that subsequently dies of Covid.

    Have you noticed how all of a sudden everyone is somehow a “key worker” . You can see in the distance from my front bedroom window the M4, unlike the first lockdown last year the motorway is still busy 24/7 .

    I go for a walk in my "open space woodland" which is close to the A4 as it leaves Bristol toward Keynsham. In the first lockdown it was it was like you were in the wilds of the lake district or wilds of Scotland you had to strain to hear the odd vehicle on the A4 SOME 200-300m away, this past week sounds no different than the busiest summer day JULY - AUGUST ….
    I have a camera on tripod that I carry around [ taken about 2000 pictures, flora and fauna ] from about 2-3m + SD 'ing "regulars often chat about anything new" last 3 or 4 weeks strangers [infrequent visitors etc] have approached me without face mask's or SD' ing protocol. I often set up camera near path [ 3 -4m+ from it] and sit on my little 3 legged stool they invade to about a metre away "what are you photo' ing, nice camera , what have you seen … " ….
    This past week my response has been " why do you think COVID IS KILLING SO MANY PEOPLE? " is it because people like me might unwittingly be carrying it? and you are a metre away with no face mask [ I have a snood face cover ] … I then cough, try to "clear my throat" or sneeze! …. 3 times this week 3 results...

    Yep I’ve noticed that. Being in heavy construction, we’ve been told that the open operational sites the employees can claim free school places being frontline workers. (They did ask not to do it if the open school is overcrowded and at the detriment of care and nhs workers) During first lockdown we operated 3 plants but this one all 10/11 of them in the South West are open. 3 in South Wales and now 12 open.

    Individuals are being fined £200 for driving 5 Mike’s to exercise, it’s about time businesses are spot checked and fined if not sticking strictly to the rules and more importantly named and shamed, I’m sure the threat of this would be more affective than the fine itself.

    I agree, you can’t buy clothes in shops but you can still buy a car. It seems that they all say they are Covid compliant so that’s good enough when who actually checks? I’ve got to go through loads of paperwork if I got to go to a customer for a complaint. But when you get there you can see no one is taking much notice. It seems as long as I tell the site I’ve no symptoms then that’s ok for them.
    The even said today on the news they need to look into it, as this lockdown is no where near the first one and yet the numbers this time are now higher.

    With Covid, are physio's working full on players? Just checking as when ever you see one come onto the pitch they are masked up etc. So if they were massaging a few players the chances of contracting, spreading the virus increases.

    Sounds to me like that backfired , I can’t see anyone who wishes to social distance will likely enter their shop anytime soon. So they’ve lost loads of customers!!

    is it a coincidence that Mawson who not only had a serious injury but also had to have an operation, but did his rehab mostly at Fulham, returned quickly and slotted straight back into the first team.

    Sessegnon returned to us early from his treatment at Fulham and we were told was very close to full fitness and now seems to be injured again.

    Maybe, but there does seem an underlying trend that our players are getting injured too often, and their rehab times are lengthy...

    Because if Williams is telling the truth and it seems to join up the dots of his mystery injury, our rehab team look as though they are responsible for some of the injuries and of course that impacts on the lengthy rehab times.

    I would like the club to respond instead of keeping us in the dark over the allegations, as I say I feel sorry for Williams he must have been desperate to do what he did and presumably being totally ignored.

    I am not sure that I believe the statement that Holden made about Walsh as things stand either, Williams made one appearance on robins TV and was never seen or heard of until last week and Walsh just hasn't been seen or heard of since his return from Coventry.

    Don’t know if you are not aware, but the club don’t read this board. So you’re better off writing to Ashton direct.

    I am a mere season ticket holder and a fan of over 62 years standing, like they give a **** about me?

    Just checking out something here. By mentioning 62 years does that make you more of a fan?

    Wow, that is a very sad retort it's a fact, it's a number, if my dad was still alive I would have a word with him about my birth date, I mean what was he thinking?

    I just never understand the pissing contest with saying the years. You’ve been going longer than me but does it mean you’re more of a fan than me? Just asking because I would struggle to match that being a young 54 year old.

    Grow up, it's no pissing contest, it's a fact, nothing more nothing less, you have pathetically put it into that context, not me.
