I think shit loads is the collective noun when it comes to toilet paper.

He advised they are sending extra semi loads of our stuff to Melbourne .

The UK have reported over 18,000 COVID-19 deaths, the Chief Medical officer suspects that is actually up to 40,000 people have died from COVID-19 as not all have been in hospital at the time of death.

The CMO has also noted that the UK can expect to be living under "social distancing restrictions" for another year.

As they're in full lockdown they might come back to a point like we're at and stay there for a year.

Have you got the exact article. All the articles i have read said 'the REST of the year' not a year.

Interested because we were thinking of doing a smaller Irish trip in May next year along with purchasing a house.

This was the one i was sent which definitely says 'REST of the year'...'not another year'.

Just be prepared for 2 weeks quarantine when you get home. We will have that for a very long time

End of year is very optimistic for the UK, most of the CMO's direct quotes are that at least a calendat year is likely.
I think Ill plan my European jaunt for October next yeat at the earliest now.

"A vaccine, and there are a variety of ways they can be deployed... or highly effective drugs so that people stop dying of this disease even if they catch it, or which can prevent this disease in vulnerable people.

"Until we have those, and the probability of having those any time in the next calendar year are incredibly small and I think we should be realistic about that, we're going to have to rely on other social measures, which of course are very socially disruptive, as everyone is finding at the moment.

I think you mentioned you were going to Austria in which case I personally think September to October is the best time of the year to visit. Scenery is still superb, weather will be mostly fine but the hoardes of tourists have started to disappear.

A workmate has some had his wife's parents and an aunty and uncle come over from the UK, they are all in their 70's and were meant to head back early March, they haven't been able to travel and have been stuck at his house since.

His 17 year old step-daughter has since run away and refuses to come back and he's seriously thinking of doing the same, I've gotta find some literature on what you have just written and send it to him.

Yeah my daughter talked me out of going in the European summer, sounds like the worst time. October has the extra bonus of being after footy season too and soccer season in Europe too. Might start to get a bit chilly in Scandanavia though.
