China is now claiming that the only new cases are imported and no domestic cases have been detected for two days. Truth or part of a plan to turn around and blame the rest of the world when it explodes there again?

Bastard. You should be helping small businesses in their time of need…

Shawn of the Dead stuff. 1st outing from house since Saturday. Local produce market deserted.
Luckily the Gardening shop is open stocking up on veggie & flower seeds

I think I can see a flaw in your plan…

Only one flaw?

I know it’s the BBC but it’s definitely worth a read, especially the bit about the impact to the local hospital and people dying without their loved ones around…

A solid non social media rumour is most UK Regional Airports will shut about middle of next week.
Not rocket science tbh.
But, the main ones will follow

Very peaceful walking the dog across the fields this morning. Just the squelch of muddy doggie feet, bird song and my Tinnitus…lovely. :lou_lol:

This doesn’t seem to be happening in other countries, pictures from Italy, Germany, Spain etc, supermarket shelves all full, nobody running through the stores stripping them bare, especially sought after items that they can flog on e bay for a few 100% mark up, even jars of baby food on there at ridiculous prices. What is wrong with people in this country FFS, the video of this poor nurse should shame us all. But millions out there won’t give a fuck. Just look at the example we are being set by Bungle and his crew. Pictures in some newspapers this morning of a delivery truck parked at the back entrance of 10 Downing Street with a pallet of Whisper Silver posh toilet paper being wheeled in. A pallet load FFS! Remember folks, shop sensibly and thoughtfully.
I’m liking the Queen’s rallying call to the nation as well, something about us all coming together as one. " Right, now i’m off to Windsor Castle to hunker down for the duration".

I’m afraid it has and is happening in other countries too, a quick search shows this

To be fair to the cenotaph drunk, if his arse produces 10% of the shit his mouth does, that’ll just about see him through the weekend :wink:

Some countries and their populations are acting differently. Read the bit about us and Cuba and ask yourself what would happen if the boot was on the other foot.

Well i’m getting seriously pissed off, supposed to be self isolating and only going out for essential reasons which i am doing. Shot into Tescos on Tuesday, waste of time, no fruit, veg, meat, pasta, bog roll etc. Tried the local Co op this morning, stripped bare, no bread, milk, veg, two packs of well past their best green beans. Two or three old ladies in there were in despair, it surely can’t carry on like this. My short term solution? Lock all the trolleys away, basket only.
I’m getting especially pissed off with the toilet roll shortage, had to change my undercrackers this morning, and it’s only March!
