Stay at home
Only go outside for food, health reasons or work (where this absolutely cannot be done from home)
Stay 2 metres (6ft) away from other people
Wash your hands as soon as you get home
Anyone can spread the virus.
Amazingly some folk just carry on regardless

Lots of OAPs sat close together on the seats near the Moon Under Water today, these are the people who are most risk so why don't they take heed of the advice given?

Why did you not come the big I am, like you did when you first came on here, and go an tell them?

I wonder if they had been to the Bingo and found it closed?

people disregard folk who tell them smoking is bad for you,why you say,because the person thinks nothing bad will ever happen to them.
