Exactly. People queueing sensibly for goods is not killing people. Again cafes and restaurants are allowed to sell hot and cold food for delivery or pick up. Ice cream is food. So allowed under the rules.


Also i am astonished at the stupidity of saying big supermarkets should be able to sell alcohol, ice cream and other non essentials but you want small, local businesses who sell this to be forced to shut? How is it less safe for me to quickly pop to my local off licence than queue up outside Sainsbury's for 30 minutes? That is mad and will just ensure the only shops left standing at the end of this are big chains.

Well said cyclemonkey - if people queue sensibly and follow distancing guidelines why shouldn?t they have an ice cream, and why shouldn?t the ice cream shop have some chance of survival. The level of judgement dished out on here and in society is getting silly - if it?s not buying an ice cream it?s sitting in a park with someone from your own household or jogging along a pavement. Can we just be a bit more realistic.

Because they are a shop that is allowed to be open - a cafe or restaurant selling hot or cold food for delivery or pick up.


You might as well ask why DIY shops are allowed to be open but not clothes shops. Because the government rules allow one to be open but not the other.


It really isn't that hard to grasp.

I do wonder how some of the people on here are going to cope when lockdown ends. What will they complain about then? Who will they judge? What meaning will life possess?


Hopefully there will be some irresponsible dog-owners, smokers and mothers with wide buggies for them to moan about to each other.

    • best chance of survival would be to remove this post and keep him secret and not a novelty
    • You can buy devices for fixed that spray water when a remote sensor is triggered.  Next door use successfully - we used to have but I was the one that mostly got wet and I now enjoy our foxes - agree we should protect our precious wildlife.  
    • Fantastic news. We have a beautiful albino squirrel living in Crebor Street and I’m hoping that local cat owners could put bells ion their cat’s collars as Albus, yes I’ve named him, maybe be partially sighted or blind. He’s a very special wee fella and is loving life here and I hope as a community we can give him the best chance of survival and do all we can to keep him safe and well.    For Albus updates, you can check out my account on Instagram…@TravelswithTiaTina x
    • Will we notice any difference compared to now ? In the dim days before electricity light our street lights, the idea of two classes of mail meant that 1st class was delivered in the morning and 2nd class later in the day (yes two postal rounds per day)  But now, with modern technology and other "efficiency" changes we get one or less rounds a day and 2nd class is now within 3 days. Somehow I feel the death throes of a ine great postal service
