Will you go shopping on the high street now?

A haircut.   Nothing else.

I see today's deaths are 36, I hope that doesn't make people complacent, as tomorrow or Tuesday when the reporting catches up, they will be much higher.

That set me thinking,  the number of excess deaths is also useful but they are a fortnight behind.

Why, if rootschat can keep a real-time total of the number of replies to all the different topics, surely registrars and the ons ought to be able to keep a running total of deaths with and without Covid 19.

Maybe they have not heard of computers

The shops are opening, will you be going to them? It's your choice.
What do you look forward to buying?

No. I shopped last year. Most of what I bought will last me a long time.
I may need new sandals or a tube of glue to fix current sandals + a pair of soft & comfy shoes to wear indoors & wandering back & forth between house & garden. The pair I'm wearing are done.
I'd like to do the rounds of the charity shops, whichever have survived, to drop stuff off and see if they have anything I want to buy - more scarves, stuff to cut up to make washable masks.
I'll have to walk into town & back as I'll be avoiding buses so couldn't carry a lot.
Nicola S. says we should wear masks in shops. I don't want to be in a mask-wearing world.
My habit of leaving purchases in a bag which I put aside and forget about has now got a name - quarantining. Instead of going shopping I could just hunt around the house. I found 3 pairs of unworn slippers last time.

Lizzie reply'#5 I don't think Karal Sikora is typical of doctors. He's been critical of NHS for a while, favouring an insurance based system. He's an oncologist.

Managed to get a hair cut at a house 2 doors away!
She did an excellent job

Maybe I should try the house 2 doors away from me then

The chap in the house two doors away from me fits carpets - if I went to him for a haircut my hair would be more of a rug.

Well looking at that poll so far, the shops won't be crowded as 90% of us won't be rushing there!

[trystan]

So that means we should go there then.
