And there we have it - today had a positive lft, so no good deed can be left unpunished!
For information, the NHS and government information about what to do etc is crap, so any information on what you think the rules are would be appreciated.

Self isolate for 5 days, start doing LFTs from day 5, if you have 2 consecutive -ve LFTs you can go out.
Day 10 you are allowed out no matter the state of your LFTs

Basically itās fucking tedious
I have just wasted hours of my life completing the test and trace questionnaire, which was appalling.
Simplistically, I caught it giving someone a lift in my car.
None of the t&t options allowed me to state this.
Millions of pounds wasted on this useless system.
I started it and gave up after putting the Ayatollahs details in - itās so thorough that it takes far too long
I simply spoke to the people I had met
Thatās a first for you, isnāt it?

And thatās exactly what I would do after this - sadly I thought. Might be helping somewhere along the line, but ended up in a rage. In this instance I didnāt actually have contact with anyone, and didnāt actually go anywhere!
Since testing positive, I have had multiple contact from Track and Trace, culminating with a questionnaire that has just taken me half an hour to complete.
My simple advice to all of you out there? If you test positive, DO NOT CONTACT Track and Trace. IMO this institution is appalling. At the last election I had doubts about who to vote for, because I thought the leader of party I normally vote for was as mad as a box of frogs, and there was no way I was voting for anything to do with Corbin. At the next election at least I know Boris is mad, and the labour bloke not for me; and I will not vote for the party that started the track and trace fiasco.
If you have any doubts about what you should do, ask a friend, or use your own common sense, or make your own enquiries from the net.
My recovery pass turned up in my App today
That at least works well

It is now day 3 of my incarceration, and I am bored stiff.
Only one more day of incarceration (self isolation) and I can hopefully take the first step out of jail with a negative LFT.
I can now understand the joy and excitement of possibly going to the pub if only 1 more negative test required!

Trying to go on holiday tomorrow to St Lucia
I am going to need a holiday to get over the stress of the pre departure rigmarole
The Ayatollah passed her PCR, I didnāt (not unexpected) however I do have a recovery pass so no worries
Not the St Lucian govt want specific Info on my test results that isnāt there. Any correspondence has to be done via their shit website and communication takes about a hour to get a response once they open - so far we have had four exchanges to get to this point
On top of that I need to try and persuade the testing company to pony up the relevant document
And I have until around midnight to get this away
FFS
Update - Express Test at Eastleigh FC are the most useless bunch of feckless wankers ever to grace the planet
Not a single response
I would recommend Randox - super efficient. Got an emergency PCR today 3 hr result job and that came in negative
So we are off
I need rum
