COVID-19 — Coronavirus

[Coatigan]

Totally agree with you..
Obviously I cant work from home .
I would much rather go to work than sit at home.
Trouble is the firm I work for still dont think its serious and there is no chance of getting it

Thats why it was a general point rather than directed at you. Sorry to hear you had to take a cut, and nice of you to recognize it is for the greater good.

Feels like I've spent the last few weeks preparing for a role in The Singing Detective. :-(

Get yourself a small bottle of baby oil and put a couple of dabs of that on.
It made by 75 year old hands look 58 again.

Do all of that, leave the mail for a couple of days, wouldn’t touch bins after being emptied, yada yada yada, the soap is playing havoc with the skin on the back of my hands

My worry with all this new found hygiene is when we get back to the Etihad, will I need to queue to wash my hands, used to be easy as loads never bothered hand washing. Toilets will need more sinks.

With different agencies bickering.over who right who wrong,especially regarding testing
And small labs saying they've offered their services,but been knocked back
I was wondering why if its still going why haven't we got Portland Down involved seeing it's in there remit.

I think we now know why the Chinese were busily welding people into their apartment blocks...

I'm beginning to wonder why we can't do that with some of the feral shits during "normal" times :-(

They are developing the antibody tests I thought.

And here it begins.

Where's Gina Bellman when you need her?

Where's Gina Bellman when you need her?

No need for that kind of sexist reference in this day and age, really!
And, it was Joanne Whalley... ;-)

You're thinking of Joanne Whalley.

Gina Bellman was Blackeyes. (A formative experience for some of us)

There has been under or delayed reporting in your neck of the woods, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that the case in Barnet. It has been picked up by the Health Services Journal

Ah right. Thanks for clarifying..

Easy to knock this clapping thing but personally it’s a great idea and really shows a support for those on the front line.

Agreed. All the street was out. Earlier someone on our street of about 24 houses put a note through every door saying we should all come out at 5pm and chat to people whilst observing social distancing. Was great. Never spoke to most of them in 10 years. Was really heartwarming. Even the old bastard who moans if I park in front of his house said hello

Even found out there's micro brewery within a mile where I can order real ales same day delivery as well as milk, eggs and fresh bread from their bakery next doir

Only 1 case linked to the festival. Be a few disappointed people on here.

Indeed it stays on surface longer than in the air, but it will be in the air in a closed environment, much less so in the open, but I still believe it can travel through the air, which is why I despise joggers running past me

True mate,finished work last Friday tube was getting a lot busy when they revised the timetable people 6inch away from each other
Would wait for the next 1 instead hoping it would be less on it people coughing then hands on handrails and then the fking escalators,them handrails must be virus wankfeast but c.nts wiping their hands on the things

Ha!

Of course, I was thinking back to Potter's Blackeyes.

Gina Bellman for a 14-year-old kid... Oh my days!

Yeah that's was my thinking or hoping they would be..

 

[oldhamblue]

Unbelievable they allowed that to continue. Horse racing doesn't need crowds life me football does to still be a spectacle

 

[Fame Monster]

Cheltenham won't have been the only breeding ground for it: there were concerts/raves/festivals galore up and down the country that week when most of Europe had banned mass gatherings. Had the football leagues not banned fixtures that weekend, who knows what death toll we'd be looking at.

 

[SWP's back]

The race goers were fucking idiots. Everyone knew the risks at that stage.
