I can't think of anything better than being holed up for a couple of weeks/months away from people that I'm usually forced to spend time with. Either that or I've just never been lucky enough to be employed in a place where I think most folk are sound. Our team has vastly reduced due to decommissioning. I work with two **** and a super annoying older guy. All three can be annoying and overwhelming. You still get a good laugh about other non football related topics though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 When Paris locked down people moved out to secondary homes or to be with family elsewhere. Some carried it to places previously untouched by the infection. One of the troubling aspect is that you don’t know you have it until you feel the symptoms meaning you could be passing it in for up to seven days without even knowing. The threat of a lockdown in London will result in a similar scenario with people getting out of the city and going to stay with friends and family.They need to enforce it by the army/police then announce or do the sensible thing and make it nation wide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, also a spring breaker by the sounds of things. Out five nights and a row and reckons that’s probably when she got it. So goodness knows how many other people will have been similarly infected. Then you can’t even guess how many they go into effect, especially those more vulnerable to its effects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonglum25 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 On a Thursday I go shopping for a few things - generally Lidl, Farmfoods and Asda. Today I have never seen anything like it. Lidl - all shelves emptied of pasta, soups and tinned veg the csashier told me that they had 4 tills open until 8pm last night instead of 1.. Farmfoods - most of the freezers empty. Asda - carpark mobbed and many empty shelves. Spoke to a member of staff who told me that all week they have been queuing from 7am waiting for the shop to open at 8am and there is generally about 100 people waiting for the doors to open then it is a mad stampede. Goodness knows what these clowns would do in a real crisis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thoughts or interest in the people it "wipes out" as the only interest is BAU as much as possible. That's what I love about this country. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An insufferable bunch of cretins who become even worse on line. If I ever see them in person again it'll be a day too soon. No, I don't want to see your fūcking dog! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
