JackieOWheels Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Well solo rides aren't banned, so in theory we could just take a long way round to work/home to enjoy some of this nice weather that is coming round the bend. You can bet that if you get stopped Plod will figure out that you're nowhere near the direct route between work and home.I'm a bit stuffed on that lark as work is literally 2 minutes walk up the road. True, I would imagine we will have to play it smart and not take the piss too much, I live only around 5miles away from my work and there are several ways to drive home if I wanted to over the direct route but I do feel your pain Mississippi!

Gerontious Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I am a keyworker so there's very little in the announcement that will negatively effect me. I get stopped by the police they see my staff card and wave me on my way. 3 weeks they say, who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they've just added another 14 days......so we're a on a minimum of 4 weeks.Personally I don't expect any change until at least May.......and I think it would be something similar for you.

S-Westerly Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 No.1 offspring who works for government reckons that we'll be lucky if we're out by June. Be interesting to see how the powers that be enforce things and whether they Muppet brigade comply. Next up is martial law if they don't. Bloody Chinese government!!!!!

onesea Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I can ride to work!Only 2 miles each way!Better than nothing! My work is about that distance away, I work shifts and its rural roads with no pavement.At times I used to take a long route home as the car does not demist or charge battery in distance I drive.Sorry I did not get to work I did not drive enough?

Smithers Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Dominic Raab, who's as sharp as f**k since he discovered the English Channel, says Brits abroad should either come home......or stay where they are. WTF really!!! He's as thick as shit! Must be, being an Oxford and Cambridge graduate and lawyer prior to politics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 WTF really!!! He's as thick as shit! Must be, being an Oxford and Cambridge graduate and lawyer prior to politics. What does that prove? Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were college dropouts!Fact is, educational standards have plummeted over the last 50 years. All deliberate......and a reaction to the Student radicalism of the 60's.It doesn't suit the elitist agenda to have an educated and critical thinking population who are capable of figuring out how badly they've been screwed over.Compliant, obedient workers who don't ask awkward questions is what they want.

S-Westerly Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 So how exactly have we been screwed over? Not trolling just interested to know what your view is. IMO globalization has screwed us over so far as industrial production goes but that was partly accelerated by inane trade union demands which in many cases killed the goose laying the eggs.

Much of what I said came from the incredible mind of the late, great George Carlin!This is an old clip and directed at the US.......but a lot of it can be applied to the UK......and many other countries!

You need to look at the industry kickbacks that prominent Politicians have received.25 Tory MP's (including Matt Hancock) are in the pocket of the Tobacco industry for example.And that's before you get into the bungs that some have received from citizens of other countries.Did you know that between November 2018 and October 2019, the Tories received at least £489,850 from Russian donors? What do you think that was for then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
