Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO Posted December 15, 2020 Posted December 15, 2020 On day #5 we had our swab test. Day #6 we got our results, negative 😀 Today we were allowed out of our room for the first time, for 30 minutes. We can go to the pool area to relax or exercise, we chose exercise. At 10am we get a knock on the door. A young man all kitted out in ppe greets us and leads us to the lift, the buttons in the lift are covered over with polythene sheeting to make them easier to wipe down, he presses the button and down we go, at the pool level the doors open and we are greeted by another young man, again all ppe’d up, he points at a tray on the floor and indicates that we wipe our feet in it. Then out we go into the Bangkok sunshine 😎 To be greeted by a Christmas tree by the pool 🎄 One other person was already there lapping the pool so we agree to follow her at a safe distance and we won’t pass each other, 30 minutes and 4,950 steps (1.9 miles) later the young man indicates it’s time to go and the transit process is reversed back to our room 😟 It's really interesting to see how other countries are dealing with this pandemic, and I'm really impressed with what I've seen so far. Ok I've not been out in the real world yet, but the way the establishment is dealing with it seems far better that the UK effort, and I hate knocking the UK but sometimes they (everyone) needs a good kick up the backside.         3 Quote
