Sorry to hear about your holiday but thanks for confirming the date :/
We were/are hoping to book a last minute trip to Puglia or Calabria for some sun before it goes on the 20th funnily enough. Less and less sure there's any chance of this happening.
We are meant to have the builders coming in this week to do work which was meant to happen much earlier in the year but got derailed by the first lockdown. I really hope it happens this week as I'm not sure it will if it doesn't.
In all seriousness there is a meeting happening next week (I don't know why it's taken so long to happen) about additional measures in London. If the outcome of that is a London-wide lockdown I'd expect it to come in from Monday 12th. John Biggs (Mayor of Tower Hamlets) is currently calling for people in TH not to visit other households as it's got so bad there.
12,872 new cases yesterday - they're going to have change the axis on the charts...
They can talk about technical issues all they like but seeing as France, the Netherlands and Belgium all reported new highs too it's pretty obvious which way things are going.
I can't really see how a second lockdown isn't coming within the next fortnight.
