Sounds like an ideal time to reopen Disney World to the public! Well, it might result in the death of a lot of Disney stans so every cloud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every report of "record cases in Florida" today is accompanied by a picture of the castle. You wouldn't want to buy that sort of publicity.

TheSurgeon Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I've been reading about a couple of wrestling schools that have either been open for a week, or are due to open on the 25th. You can't get your eyebrows threaded, but you can roll around with other sweaty people? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 13, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted July 13, 2020 How can they reopen when social distancing remains in place? You still can't play football against anyone so there's no chance wrestling should happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sex worker / swinger around this way has restarted business with a covid safe environment. The video demonstration of how the clients top half gets zipped into a pop-up tent before she gets within 2 meters of his 2 inches is the most grim thing on the Internet.  And anyone who says wrestling training can't happen with social distancing has never paid £250 to watch wrestlemania 7 with Jake Roberts. Edited July 13, 2020 by Tommy!

I know karate schools that have opened up, because they can still do kata, whereas judo and jiu-jitsu classes aren't able to open yet because you can't teach it without that level of extreme physical contact. In wrestling, you could still have people bumping, running the ropes, and various exercises, without ever having to lock up with another person. I'd still question the value of it all, though.

A lot of BJJ schools are doing online zoom classes, its not the same as drilling/rolling with someone, but better than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidB6937 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 How's everyone doing with going out now lockdown has 'eased'? I must admit I haven't been anywhere at all. Probably more through nerves than anything. What's the new world looking at? Did you feel comfortable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit I haven't been anywhere at all. Probably more through nerves than anything. What's the new world looking at? Did you feel comfortable? I'm going out when I need to, but it turns out that's not a great deal right now. When I do, I'm cautious but by no means terrified of the world. Turns out I'm saving a fair bit of money and unnecessary calories by not going out much so I'm fine with it. I went to Homebase a few weeks ago and with the outdoor queueing for half an hour and the lack of this common sense the government keep talking about, I'm not in any rush to return to normal. Maybe when I'm working again I'll feel different. I'm certainly not in any rush to go to ASDA or a pub any time soon. I don't feel like I need to and I'm one less person for others to avoid.

Joe Blog Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I went to Aldi the other day and it was a absolute shambles, I have been going since lockdown started and it has always been well policed and people were by and large sensible. People chatting inches from one another, people reaching past each other for what they wanted to buy. I had to tell one pisshead to fuck off away from me. He was stood at my shoulder stinking of whiskey at 11 in the morning. We are a truly a shameful nation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
