When i was a bit younger every pub closed at 10pm on weekdays, 10-30 at weekends. Those were the licensing laws.
No Tory MPās thought it was a bad thing, the CBI liked the idea of workers not getting Bletched and turning up for work with a hangover.TV pundits and economic experts didnāt waste words on it.
The economy didnāt collapse.

How about making them available to everyone at a reasonable price and they most likely double their money or more 
Hereās another- Iām sure itās all very well meaning but 
āā¦The Terrence Higgins Trust published advice in August suggesting people avoid kissing, wear a face covering and choose positions that arenāt face-to-face during sex.
They say their advice hasnāt changed much since then.
"Your best sexual partner during the COVID-19 pandemic is yourself or someone within your household and you should follow the Government guidelines about social distancing, hand washing and face coveringsā¦
ā¦Masturbation, sex toys or having phone or online sex are recommended as the safest options.ā
So now you have an excuse if caught at any of those 
Only 1 Covid patient in the General.
Iām fucked off with the media portrayal of this fucking virus, particularly TV News. The desire to full up 24 hours of bullshit supersedes the need to provide rational and accurate reportage that has not been curated for sensationalist horseshit.
The App is live - who is downloading it?
I have, given that track and trace is a bit iffy at the moment it seems like a good idea, - apparently ashurst is classed as medium risk???
