If I die my wife and my daughters will be sad I trust. 

Apart from that I hopefully once or twice get a mentioning. 

Fine with me.

Have you got a beer fridge in the garage? 

Something I need to consider

Quite cold in the garage and I'm a real ale man

Rize Winston, rize

2000 years since Christ. 3 generations per 100 years= 6 000  people and they are all dead. No one has complained. Now we are striked by a slight breeze. I don't give s shit. 

If I get the virus I'll take my sleeping bag and move in to the garage. I'm not interested in participating in this muppett show.

The current breeze has been coming for decades. Why are people surprised nothing has been done?

That was sort of my thoughts on my first post on this thread. Huge numbers of companies wouldn't survive 6 months of this: not just your local Dog n' Duck, but national chains. Anyone not working in food retailing or medicine basically.

I'm interested in what the benefit claimant figures will be soon. It was 1.6m before this I think (from memory), but I can see it getting above 10m or more. And with a much smaller tax-base, you wonder where the cash for these benefits is coming from.

A prolonged virus lockdown will break entire national economies.

Maybe it IS time for the experts to factor this in and think if there is a way those of us who aren't over 70 or with underlying health issues can all live as normal while keeping strict isolation for those that are. It'll spread, we'll take our chances, but then it'll peak and eventually those isolating can emerge to a world that might look a bit similar.

It's clear from the large numbers who think they have the disease but haven't been tested (I know of three in Bristol alone) that the genie is out the bottle. Containment has failed. Providing it stays with the healthy and young(ish) population, the NHS may not have to be overwhelmed.

Is this mad? Thoughts?

Far to sensible for any politician to understand

Funny you should mention him, because many say that Boris considers himself to be just that...his hero., guy he's modelled himself on.

Cometh the Man, the hour etc...

The idiot that caused Brexit against better understanding??

Where is Winston when you need him?

All in all total madness. Are we going to close the planet down? Are there still people out there with working brains?

Could you expand/elaborate?

Doesn't sound good however!

The tanker/thinker is slowly, slowly turning

Happy to say the wolf is not coming. In one weeks time people will understand this causing authorities real trouble.

Flashing Blue
On the panel I see the lights that are lit.
The process step is under my control.
I keep an eye on the computer's analyzes.
Here, uncertainty has played its part.
 
The control flashes blue, a signal for the safe.
The control flashes blue, then everything is fine.
If the screen is normal, there is no reason to hesitate.
When the control flashes blue, then everything is fine.
 
But in the quiet hours of the night I have wondered,
What happens where technology doesn't see,
What is hiding in the shadow of the Tuja trees.
And I feel the anxiety growing more and more.
 
But the control flashes blue, a signal for the safe.
The control flashes blue, then everything is fine.
If the screen is normal, there is no reason to hesitate.
When the control flashes blue, then everything is fine.
 
But there are questions the computer cannot answer.
Signals I cannot understand.
There is so much we cannot explain.
There are forces we can never use.
 
The control flashes blue, a signal for the safe.

If the screen is normal, there is no reason to hesitate.

There is no truth and nothing but no truth.

People guess. Some people on political grounds.

Some people not.

Looks like summertime in the Stockholm underground. A massive decrease in the numbers of commuters.

I’m not a doctor, however if you were only with this guy yesterday and he’s now been told to go into isolation and you started getting symptoms this morning, then that’s not a long enough incubation period for your sore throat to have anything to do with your manager. Your best bet is to phone 111 and ask for their advice.

 

I'm a Doctor when flying. Always been well treated.

As there is no doctors degree in football someone need to fill the gap.

5.1 days the latest estimate I saw- certainly not a long enough period yet.

Hang the LJ

Seems we share your stance regarding schools etc. but no public gatherings of 500 people or more is allowed since yesterday

In Sweden we carry a gen(i)us perspective on "working at home". As less women are able to work from home it would be unfair to let men work at home says an authority .................................................................

All kindergartens, schools and universities as well as pubs and clubs closed down in Norway

Was in Manchester working for a few days, this morning a few of us felt a bit rough with sore throat and high temperatures, we just put it down to a late night last night. 

We found out one of the managers we were with yesterday has been told to go into self isolation after phoning 111.

Obviously this is reported to senior management, we then get a message saying we've all got to get off of the premises as soon as possible and work from home until further notice. 

Typically I was all over the UK next week at meetings so I need to cancel everything. 

Now stood on the train back from Manchester to Bristol in the vestibule area as don't want to risk passing anything on

Am sure it's just a head cold but feel rough

Try to be at work 6 a.m, don't take a coffee break and head home lunchtime passing Systembolaget
