Re: Self Isolating
 
Yesterday we flew to UK
I cannot count of the number of times we were asked, queried, reminded of the need to self isolate.

This afternoon I received a phone call from someone claiming to represent the UK government, I asked if his name was Boris and he replied he was much further down the food chain.

He then went on to query / remind me of the isolation rules and also that if I had any doubts the government website had all the information.
I asked when he had last read that information and he replied "a few weeks ago" I therefore informed him that there was little or no information about isolating and that in fact a few lines into the article it links to LOCKDOWN

At that moment I discovered that you can actually HEAR STUNNED SILENCE on phone.

Moments later after he had checked the site and regained his composure he agreed with my interpretation of said document.

Still in prison, but I do have a window through which I can see squirrels playing in the outside world

On Thursday I have my first chance of parole if I test negative for covid

But that will only allow me into the lockdown world of no pubs or restaurants:thumbdown:

All being well I will escape the UK in 5 to 6 weeks back to Gib which is now easing it's lockdown
