Have a wee read of this..

They've only just discovered Gypsies?

The caravans & camper vans come round here almost monthly!

Re: Things that annoy you!

These are not Gypsies but people leaving their homes in towns and citys across the UK, to come up here and try to escape the virus.

Seems there were 30+camper vans turned away over on the West yesterday, they wanted to use a carpark to sit it out. No Way were they getting to do that.

That would be total isolation for real lol. Stroma, though small might fit the bill for some, there's even ruined crofts they could rebuild to use, also stop them getting bored.

Re: Things that annoy you!

Some guy in Bristol has luxury appartments (bedsits I expect) for rent at £40 a day for those who want to self isolate.
Our local car boot sale is still on with people advertising that they'll be there with essential stuff! Crazy!

I took Dolly up the lane for a walk (short one, still got tummy bug) got passed by a cyclist, coughing. Then a jogger who stopped panting and coughing. Then two joggers, side by side passed about 2 feet from me, panting and saying, "Good Morning".

From now on in the car to a field somewhere.

Mothers are arranging play dates for kids, teenagers in groups, everywhere!

That's awful TessA, but the young seem to think they are invincible, silly asses, they're going to learn the hard way some of them. Then listen to them bleat..

It's not just the young Roxy, Cheddar Gorge is full of folk visiting, sitting outside closed pubs on the bench tables having picnics! Walkers with backpacks coming to see the village, bringing their flipping germs here.

Villagers are calling for roads to close.

Re: Things that annoy you!

We only have two small supermarkets here, all these visitors are not helping us to keep going.
Normally they'd be very welcome but things aren't normal.
