sallykate May 2020 4:08pm, 29 May 2020 6,465 posts	0 sallykate Two minutes after I wrote that I had a notification on my phone that half of people with symptoms (I assume not tested) aren't self-isolating! That'll be it then.
run free May 2020 4:19pm, 29 May 2020 4,072 posts	0 run free Although university is not starting back up, a number of students have returned back to their rented accommodation to have independence from their families!!!
Ultracat May 2020 4:20pm, 29 May 2020 12,840 posts	0 Ultracat I would guess each person has their own definition of what self isolating means
Cotty67 May 2020 4:34pm, 29 May 2020 988 posts	0 Cotty67 UC I think it's only in England you can use the toilet. Nicola specifically said that you shouldn't go for a visit that might mean you would need to use the bathroom. Honesty it's so confusing having more than one set of rules, but then we use our own common sense so yes hand sanitizer and wipes.
um May 2020 4:37pm, 29 May 2020 2,525 posts	0 um v'rap - you can just pay him (a pittance) to clean the loo ... then he's your cleaner and it's all OK. Isn't it? Or he can be coming 'to test readiness' for Monday? Just to be safe, like any good adviser would. I was going to say 'test his eyesight', but that and loos doesn't bode well.
EvilPixie May 2020 4:41pm, 29 May 2020 17,556 posts	0 EvilPixie You would have thought the countries could have agreed on this bit All 3 have different rules on how many etc Stupid Of course no one will follow as they won’t have a clue!
Dr PhFleecyD May 2020 5:16pm, 29 May 2020 50,087 posts	0 Dr PhFleecyD It’s all just fucking ludicrous isn’t it? It was ludicrous before but it’s hitting new heights.
halfpint May 2020 5:22pm, 29 May 2020 31,234 posts	0 halfpint It’s only confusing if you take note of all the guidance. I’ve abandoned the UK (English) briefings as they are not relevant to me and frankly were infuriatingly waffly and nonsensical. I watch FM briefing and look at Scottish Government website for details of guidance. Simple.
