I'm David Soucher and this is Blood Ties.

Hi everyone, welcome back to the Blood Ties podcast. I'm Molly Wansall and I'm here with my father, Jeffrey Wansall.

Hello everyone, welcome back to Blood Ties and thank you all so much for listening.

It means a great deal to Molly and I.

And it's always nice to think of you out there in these stressful times. Here we are,

eight weeks into lockdown. It seems like an eternity. No, it's funny. I was listening back to

last week's episode, I was saying to Dad and I was very determined about the fact that the lockdown wouldn't be relaxed and I was totally wrong.

So it's good.

Well, we have yet to see what impact it's going to have on the R number, which is clearly decisive.

And we also have yet to see what's going to happen because the week ahead promises to be very

sunny and warm in large parts of the United Kingdom which is going to tempt some people to

travel to a beauty spot or the coast even though though everyone's saying, please don't come.

And the Blackpool's got a sign saying, do not visit Blackpool.

Don't go to Wales.

Don't go to Brighton.

Don't go to Chester.

Don't go to Liverpool.

And where exactly people are going to go in their cars?

It's something of a mystery to me.

I know.

It will be the same in London, all the parks.

You'll be so full you can't be.
