I am still at work, I am looking forward to the roads being quieter during lockdown and some stress free motoring. The amount of people that needlessly clutter the roads up by taking unnecessary car journey`s was there for all to see under the previous lockdown.

Last game of 7 a side footy last night. No idea how outdoor sports is meant to spread covid, but schools and university don't. Something tells me this government doesn't have a clue

Universities staying open is a disgrace, there is no need. Schools, some parents still have to work.

In work , judging by the road traffic in Liverpool this morning nothing had changed here 👍

I probably don't have any kids but if I do the mum is probably struggling somewhere to hold down a job whilst trying to get the kid to school and feed it etc. The government needs to take more responsibility to look after our kids.

Well if kids are sharing classrooms then they are at even less risk doing PE outside together.

Today is just like yesterday..

I'm an Accountant and we are busier than ever. Well first lockdown I lost my original job and got made redundant, started a new one 2months ago. Luckily Finance/Accounts personnel are always needed!

Same here in Belfast. Our politicians are saying we have to learn to co-exist with the virus. Battle hardened Norn Iron spirit apparently acts as a deterrent to the most deadly virus in Modern times.

Obviously people are still driving about, it's not climate change and air quality that we need a break from. We need to make sure that those are still prevalent during lockdown. I just went and turned my car on and leaving it sitting idle for 4 hours. We all need to do our bit.

I’m lucky in that I am an office worker and my area (accountancy) still requires accounts and audits etc to be done. So fortunately I have been able to work from home and been on full pay throughout.
