Well i'm loving it, as the nation is full off stupid people. So here we are, 6 months down the line. And it's de ja vu ...

Getting agency workers in to help cope, so it's basically name your own hours again for now.

 

When I was a kid bread & potatoes were basic staples, everything else was a bonus. Considering all the bread I make here I just about manage to consume one rye loaf a week. I never buy supermarket bread as it’s loaded with **** to make it last a month and has sugar which I never use in my baking unless it’s by request.

 

The fact that every other **** is buying it by the trolley full?

 

My 2 sons have tested positive.

 

Sunday afternoons were a ****ing desert, waiting for 7.00pm opening.

 

Mad thing is they both had a cold, runny nose, no loss of taste, just a normal cold.

 

Sorry to hear that mate.

What happens now, the whole family isolates I suppose, and you all get tested?

Look after yourselves mate, I hope it soon passes and you all come out okay. I’m sure you will.

 

Yeah all the best luvvy.

 

This is what I was meaning about accuracy.

The common cold is a corona virus isn't it?

At present they're getting into a blind panic over elevated positive tests when it's fairly clear most of the people with those results are perfectly ok. They need to find a way of differentiating between a corona virus common cold and the so called deadly (TM, the BBC) virus.

Anyway, hope they get over their colds quickly and enjoy your 14 days of quarantine!

 

Three of us went out for a pub meal last night with work. One pub wouldn't take the booking as we're not from the same family.

This is where Wales have got this a bit wrong to be honest, it's impossible to stop people 'coincidentally' meeting up in a pub of an evening but you're only allowed to take a table booking if everyone on the table is from the same (extended) family.

Not gonna work. They should just stick to the same maximum of six people like England has, otherwise pubs and restaurants in wales are really going to struggle.

Went to a different pub who didn't question it. I don't think they even knew the finer detail of the 'rule'.

 

I thought everyone was related to each other in Wales?

I’m guessing the gas lights helped as well!

 

I read that the whole bog roll thing started in Australia the first time round as they import a significant percentage from China. It’s the herd stupidity which will drive this round of shortages.

 

Depended where you lived.
When i started drinking 10.30 but 6 miles down the road 11-00 as it was in the neighbouring county . Obviously no one ever jumped in a car and covered the 6 miles in 5 mins .
Looking back the 70's feels like a different life

 

Hilarious, fair play.

 

Hope everythings fine mate
Small consolation but since you can work from home at least no financial effect .

 

they can differentiate though there will be a percentage of false positives and presumably vice versa for various reasons . Just because someone isn't particularly ill doesn't mean they haven't got the virus and are therefore infectious .
