"When is the vilifying people who work at Pets at Home going to start?"

actually the problem with "pets at home" was they were trying to get all their parts classed as "essential"

getting pet foot and offering vets service is "essential"

I don't see the pet grooming service as "essential"....

Are tanning salons allowed to stay open? Some people need sunbeds for their health. Apart from that vitamin D boosts the immune system and simulates the summer we are holding out for.

Since when have sunbeds been off the "causing cancer" list? Genuine question as never seen anything that remotely suggests they're good for you!!!

Tanning beds were invented as a cure for skin ailments.

There is a guy in the USA who offers $5000 to anyone who can prove sunbed tanning gave them cancer. No takers so far.

Many of the people who go to my tanning salon do so for medical reasons.

Personally, the healthiest I have ever been is since I started tanning. I am more concerned about the withdrawal from lack of tanning.

The most essential thing to stay open are all the ladies legs on here via cam or phone .. it’s an essential service to all us singles out here ... seriously all stay safe ... we can adjust and we will and then we’ll beat this shit thing if we all try to help where we can and the rest abide by the rules for once ...

Well you would if you saw an afghan hound or a Husky or a Komondor or any other long-haired thick coated dog struggling to vent temperature in the spring weather.

Greggs has closed down.

Can anyone tell me how it is more risky for the staff or customers to buy a sausage roll in Greggs compared to buying a sausage roll in Tescos ?

Well you are only at risk with those people who want a sausage roll or a pasty.

But if you're mixing with people who want milk and tea bags and oranges, a lot more chance of catching it

True - on my exercise run I've just passed an open garden centre.

There were customers.

Gregg's chose to close to try and encourage people to stay in, you're less likely to visit a supermarket for a couple of sausage rolls, some cooplands stores are still open but most of them have closed.

they probably aren't open because that isn't common sense it's mainly ground workers and digger /dumper drivers that are carrying on because it's isolated. The company I work for has split everyone up no and put loads of measures in place to avoid contact and I don't think I need to go near anyone else now or anything they go near.

Staff risk on production lines as they cant do 2m apart. That's my guess

B and Q have a garden department selling such stuff, and being hardware, I would imagine that they are open.

Some garden centres sell food, so they may try and use that as an exemption, but I've been too busy working to drive past my local ones to see.

The GOV website has just released a revised list with further clarity

I would advise everyone to take their information from this website and not from social media etc

The amount of nonsense that seems to be spreading around Facebook etc is ridiculous. Why do so many people seem to take this as news rather than actually accessing the news ?

I can't believe you are asking this. A tanning salon would be an ideal environment for a virus to spread. Stay at home

You can add off-licences to that list as it's now considered essential.

I guess they badly need the taxes and want to keep everyone hammerd for the duration.

Good news for alcoholics.
