I like my meat well cooked, but I don't want it cremated.

I'm so confused by all this,but are 30 people allowed indoors.....anywhere?
In pubs bars or restaurants, as long as they keep distant from people outside of their groups and wear masks unless sitting down to eat or drink. .....(at the moment)....(in England)

Really? Under investigation?

I can just see the film version... a 7th place setting at the table, a mysterious pair of feet poking out from the bottom of the curtains.... a case for C Dick of Scotland Yard... ;D

The PM is anxious to avoid being portrayed as Scrooge.  People are hoping the rule of six could be lifted on Christmas Day to allow families to spend time together.  :)
