I feel so upset about this, I fear for my son who has to battle through all this lot with his van, delivering, it was bad enough last year, even worse this year. And the abuse the hospitality staff have had to put up with, no wonder no one wants to take those jobs. I’ll be glad when Emmet season’s over. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-58318695
It's funny how most of the people who usually holiday abroad can't seem to think of a single other place to go in the UK other than Cornwall. I love Cornwall, but no way I'd go during the school hols, even in non-Covid times.
It probably seems like that if you live in Cornwall. The Lakes are no different. Book a holiday during school holidays!! ... Good God no! ..If there's anything likely to pi88 me off more than anything else it's screaming kids!..holiday or no. In terms of booking a holiday during the pandemic, well, a fool and his money?
Scum. We get them up here too. The sooner they go back to their manky holidays in Benidorm or wherever, the better.
Filth.. We see them in the Lakes too.
Benidorm... LOL. I've never been but my friend tells me there's one or two nice places?? My wife suggested to her friend a while ago that we might try it... "It's probably not for you", she said.. so we haven't bothered.
I would rather eat my own hair than go to one of these places @Chris-P-Bacon. You can substitute whatever the current popular manky place is, for Benidorm. How these locals stand it I will never know, but I suppose they make plenty out of them so it's a question of whether it's a price worth paying.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
They must be stressed beyond belief @Lyn. Scotland also relies heavily on tourism, and the summer weather we've had this year has helped them enormously. However, we have a very small, and beautiful, hamlet on Loch Lomond- Luss [among many other spots ] which attracts total b*llends as soon as the sun comes out, and it's been ten times worse this year. Been hideous for the residents and everyone else there this year. Absolutely no excuse.

No idea whether this is presumptuous or not, but I have been asked my views on vaccination of children by a number of local people, particularly in view of the jvci. coming out against it.
Imo. the jcvi. did not take into account the effects of long COVID or of the reduction in transmission caused by vaccination.
Therefore on the balance of probabilities, I believe that children should be vaccinated. If I had young children, I would have them vaccinated. My view is shared by several colleagues on the COVID groups I sit on.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
I agree, as I understand it the JCVI looked at it purely from a health risk /benefit point of view for the children of that age. As you say they did not take the wider factors into account.
I think another thing they didn’t take into account was the impact of yet another interruption to a child’s education should an individual pupil, or several members of that cohort, become unwell.

Interestingly, when I asked my 13 yr old grandson what he thought about it, he gave me a very reasoned and careful answer that he would have it without question and his parents agreed with him. When I asked him why, he said he thought he ought to protect the older generation.
I actually am not in favour of it for children as I believe the benefits for them don't outweigh the possible risks as per the JCVI decision. It's a slippery slope IMO.
Surely the best test of whether vaccinations in children are a good idea, is to ask the virologists, ICU clinicians etc. what they would / will do with their children? Overwhelmingly the people i have spoken with, want it.
