Good idea. We have had a couple of walks but otherwise we have not been out in the car for over a week. I will put a mask on over my full face visor next time I go in a food shop or pharmacy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Uber runs in the UK? Many places in Europe don’t allow Uber. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted January 5, 2021 #5218 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Operation “Fox Relocation” has started. First move is to empty the coverall of bales, the empty structure will entice them to find another home. We have also put out a bush camera to track their movement and times to see if there is any pattern. A few of the bales on the move to a new home. Lucy appreciates the effort. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although many local businesses may close altogether as a result. We are keeping our fingers crossed for eventual good news about more widespread distribution. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are food delivery services like Door Dash, Grub Hub, and Uber Eats big in the UK? We get something delivered by Door Dash at least once a week. Not the same as going out, but usually better than cooking. I'm enjoying cooking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
