Talking to local Costa Manager today. Yesterday she said to a woman “oh you have a lot of shopping” yes we had to come here to do our shopping as we are from Braintree & so shops are shut. (Tier 4) But says manager we are tier 2 & you have come from a tier 4. “Yes.” Ok I will do you a take away only. Result a stream of verbal abuse. Manager stood her ground & threatened the police. Well done I say. We are in this position thanks to the idiots not taking heed or not understanding the obvious.

We are all used to the selfish Darwinians after the previous two runs at it down here this year including sending their clothes etc by courier in a vain attempt to cover their tracks, stupid does what stupid is  you can run but you can't hide. The local Constabulary have had a few calls already I'm led to believe. Isn’t it surprising though that Cornwall turned out to be the only mainland uk area to be in tier 1, despite the influx of summer visitors and the south west in general has fared much better than the rest of the country. Could it be down to those people mingling outdoors rather than indoors and of course, the second home owners are generally more self contained. (Having said that, I would still subscribe to road blocks on the Tamar Bridge and Bodmin Moor!) Thats because both Scotland and Wales have put the whole "country" into tier 4. I am sure that the higlands and mid wales will be much the same as cornwall for the same reason - they are almost empty. That said, here in Monmotushire we arent densly populated. Its a country area. But we are still close on 500 per 100k and rising.

Well done I say. We are in this position thanks to the idiots not taking heed or not understanding the obvious. It is the same on many of the edges of Zone 4. My sister lives near Horsham, Zone 2. On Sunday it was crawling with shoppers, most from Southern Surry, including Guildford, Zone 4. Short of putting all of England into Zone 4 people will travel to get what they want. It does seem that patience, on both sides, is wearing rather thin, particularly amongst the young.

Oh well a walk around the village this evening delivering cards revealed that the covidiots have arrived as all the empty houses now are lit tonight and the car registration plates with dealers and or postcodes on confirm them mostly to be from tier4, darwin rules lets just hope the elderly of the village don't suffer as a result of their crass selfishness. Doubtless when Doris puts the whole country into tier4 they will congratulate themselves..

Perhaps some found their way to Switzerland? I read that Swiss authorities are looking for 10,000 British citizens in their ski areas?

What's in it for them?
