I don’t think Cardiff has been this low since October. Maybe we will give the eat out to help out a swerve this time.....
See what Drakeford has to say today. Probably stay in lockdown for another 3 week period and then staged openings mid Feb onwards. Priority school years, maybe gyms and high street shops after that. Pubs will be the last to open mid to end of March or something I reckon.
The rates are coming down really well in South Wales but we've been burnt before opening things up too quickly.
I would honestly prefer them to take their time and get it right and look towards Easter when many of the vulnerable and over 70's will have had their 2 doses hopefully.

Summer is having it this year!!
