Enjoy yourself, but take care:
Wood dust can cause serious health problems. It can cause asthma, which carpenters and joiners  are four times more likely to get compared with other UK workers. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Regulations 2002 require that you protect workers from the hazards of wood dust.
Hardwood dust can cause cancer, particularly of the nose.

As I have asthma already I will indeed be careful!

It was almost certainly written by a nice civil servant, T00ts, you know how it works.

Oh Barry you have burst my bubble of contentment. I had convinced myself that my government and especially my Minister of Health really cared about little me - a Conservative voter to the core - and cared so much about my wellbeing that he sat up late and sent me a personal letter. I am now tempted to sink into a corner and suck my thumb while tears of melancholy and rejection well up in my reddening eyes and tumble down my cheeks dropping to the floor in a puddle of despair, finally realising that no-one will take me by the hand assuring me that all will be well.

Actually I am more likely to spend the rest of the day in my workshop. I have a project underway involving timber which I have stored for yonks and a jigsaw and careful construction. Bliss - especially as it's virus free.

Oh ok! I guess with a blanket letter it would be difficult to cover all specifics. Perhaps your GP would be able to help.

I doubt my GP would be able to help at all.

Oooh what question? I thought it was pretty comprehensive.

I had the same email, and it was not specific enough.  I have emailed a question but I don't expect I will get a reply.

He assured me that I would be properly updated as necessary.

Late last night I received a long email signed by Matt Hancock going into great detail about what will happen on Dec 2nd and updating me on what I should and shouldn't do emphasising that it really was only for information and that I should make my own decisions about what risks I felt comfortable with. He assured me that I would be properly updated as necessary.

The only thing that was missing was kisses on the bottom. How nice that he went to all that trouble when he must be so busy!
