Coronavirus (Non-Politics)

To be fair, the second someone/anyone says 'WHAT YOU AREN'T BEING TOLD' especially on Facebook, screams conspiralist theory bollocks.

Wait, so you don’t think that this is a Chinese plot to infect everyone with compliance chips?

Now I want chips in curry sauce.

Don't say you weren't warned if you are abducted by aliens and probed.

They told me it would only be once. True to their word so far.

Local Co-op had toilet rolls this morning but now only stocking 4-roll packs but even at max of 3 packs per customer will soon run out again..

I went to Wickford aldi on sunday- loads of loo roll BUT..................

I am a bit sad and tend to keep lots of everything (tooth paste, deodorant, loo roll etc etc).
We have a cupboard in the downstairs loo which I stock up to 5 lots of 9 roll packs. that might sound excessive, but this weekend both my kids came down from uni and went home with a 9 pack, and we saw my mum (84) and as its a large item gave her a pack.
So i picked up 3 nine packs from Aldi to replace the above, as I did so i thought 'everyone is going to think i'm one of those mad selfish pricks' so i put 2 packs back and bought one pack

the irony - I must be the only person buying less loo roll because of coranavirus !

This is really quite a naughty story, and being as someone has said what's gone on in the Echo comments on FB, I'll not hide the facts....

Family goes on holiday to Italy but tells school they were going to France and send child straight back into school on return. The stupidity of some people is truly staggering.

Apparently The Times is reporting that the government might be on the brink of saying all sporting events must be played behind closed doors.

That might tip us over the edge.

And many other clubs and businesses.

And many other clubs and businesses.

Will the money pledged in the budget for businesses also apply to professional sport clubs?

 

[Blueronron]

Will the money pledged in the budget for businesses also apply to professional sport clubs?

Only if you are Man Utd,Man City or Liverpool

They're businesses so, by definition, yes. That's just my guesswork though.

Music festivals here (in Terrassa and Badalona ) have been suspended.Only a matter of time IMO,say a week ,before there's a lock down on schools too.

Hopefully airports too.

Although I acknowledge that is somewhat selfish on my part, but it’s the only way I’ll be getting my flight money back from EasyJet

My firm has split the department in two.

Half work remotely for the next fortnight then we swap.

My building access is even being revoked for this period.

I would have thought airlines will want to be flying here for Easter.Rob Noxious is due here at the beginning of April just after the Ipswich away game.

I hope not as I will fear for my job.

Yeah, it’s a **** situation. Obviously I wouldn’t want anyone to lose their job over it.

What’s the atmosphere like at your place? I guess a lot of people will be worried right now. Have you had any communication from the top brass?
