    Mate, if we're going down that route, I'm gonna need to get a flight sorted ASAP! I need either a good rave, or a mental mosh pit soon or I'm going to explode!

    Junior is almost in tears daily - he's got tickets for Leeds festival this year, Rage are headline, and it's looking likely it'll be cancelled - he's heartbroken, they are the reason he's going!

    His band are writing some pretty heavy stuff right now, so hoping their first gig back after the lockdown is going to be a bit special....

    If you believe that lockdown is correct Col, you must believe that the original laissez-faire approach - very much under Johnson - was wrong.

    I've had a pretty poor response to my earlier question. Col kindly responded and that was appreciated. Ellers obviously has ignore on otherwise he would have treated me to that thorough list of positives and I was hoping jeff would chime in with something apart from 'likes'. Cant be too many who think the government are handling this too well me thinks.

    That was Johnson's original policy. Let it rip, get it done, send it packing - and other three word slogans.

    could anyone have really predicted just how things would turn out? I just wonder how long the Chinese kept things covered up hoping that they could cure this? Also, I am finding it strangely difficult at the lack of deaths in China, when for example, UK, USA, Italy and Spain have had so many more. Plus no one speaks of the Muslim camps that China had set up to "cleanse" them.
    Just found out an old work colleague and someone I "bounce ideas off" is currently in hospital with this virus.

    I heard on the radio yesterday that Wuhan has issued new figures for their dead, and it's double the original number - closer to realistic figures, but probably still scaled down.

    Jenrick has told local authorities to keep the parks open in the interest of public health. Hoorah, at last a sensible move from the government.

    But what would have made them think they should be closed in the first place?

    Will they now get them to take the yellow tape off the benches so that people can sit down? Will they tell the police that sunbathing is not a capital offence?

    Let's have a bit more of this common sense.

    Real deaths in Wuhan are estimated to be anything between 30,000 and 120,000.

    I think that was based on observations that locals (the ones brave enough to share what they saw) made based on the fact that crematoria were running 24/7 and the number of funeral urns left for collection outside funeral homes - tens of thousands.
