Not if there's a pianist in the orchestra. Opera singers might be a bit risky, though.

I know you are referring just to the lockdown easing but for a comparison of govts and level of mis-management I know where I would rather be right now.

In my view, HMG have handled this no worse or any better than many other comparable Western countries with the exception of NZ and the Aussies who jumped on it with commendable speed. Sure, they made some appalling mistakes early on, but so did many others. The whole episode has been one of a continuous 'learning curve' from the 'get go' and whilst it's easy to throw the blame at the door of HMG, the one thing they got absolutely bang on was the procurement of sufficient vaccine supply.
There will almost certainly be a third wave but quite how far the vaccine roll out mitigates it remains to be seen; I suspect that it will be significant, but nowhere near (fingers crossed) as devastating as just after Christmas. HMG have said that they don't want, of necessity, to go into another lockdown but I fear that at some point later on this year it's going to happen - Rob

I received an SMS confirming the registration about 2 minutes after logging out. Not too shabby a system!

Completed the form and got instant text & email confirmations before I'd even closed down the web page. Don't know what vaccine I'll be getting and don't really care.

My sister had it a couple of months ago because she has a nasty autoimmune disease. She had an extreme immune response which nearly killed her.
