does that mean I have to dig out my old radio and to pick up radio 5! I presume Staurt Hall is still covering our games and banging on about the ‘theatre of comedy’

Stuart is a nonce

Kept kids off school.....

Had Headteacher on the phone, she has informed me it will go down as unauthorised absence.

Conversation was pretty much her spouting... the current public health England guidelines are children should be attending school any absence will be unauthorised.

Asked me to support the school and reconsider sending my child back to school.

school was a safer place then mixing with the general public (I pointed out child would be in home isolation or house arrest as the teacher called it)

keeping child off school would cause unnecessary panic amongst children and parents.

Brick her windows and torch her car.

The WHO seem to believe those numbers

They might be accurate. I'm just saying that they have reasons for downplaying it. WHO just go with whatever figure a country reports.

I think you underestimate them. They're not stupid.

They think they know better when it comes to every subject tbh. Expats are the very worst of the worst when it comes to chatting shite.

He was one of them when this all started.

For about three days until I actually spend a few hours reading up on this, Flu, viral and epidemiology. Then I realised I’d been talking out of my arse by comparing this to Flu.

US stoccks just opened and clossed after 15 minutes :-(

That doesnt sound like a good sign.

DJIA down over 2000 points. FTSE down over 500.

The oil price has crashed, as well as coronavirus effect.

The pause is a safety valve on the Dow, triggered by a large fall. It's still down nearly 1500, but more stable.
