Hobbit said:
Shopped last Thursday. Last night; fever, dry throat and cough. Threw up about 2:30am. Feel like crap this morning, still with a fever. Chest feels like it stinging inside, front and back. Here's hoping its just a cold... a bit anxious to say the least.

Pretty sure the advice was not to travel anywhere unless it was urgent. Also to be honest I'd get out as soon as possible as evidence from literally every country in the world shows that things escalate quickly https://www.npr.org/sections/corona...t-has-done-too-little-too-lat?t=1585063264640

Just got back from meeting with the TUI rep. Bottom line we come back 2 days early with a flight to Gatwick. Then a coach up to manchester. Another plane is leaving early for Manchester tomorrow.
According to the rep, If the UK had not gone Into lockdown we would of stayed til saturday.
I have asked re self isolation etc, On our return. They have said that if the UK had not gone Into lock down there was no need to go Into self isolation. But ad now is the case everyone is. At the moment the UK is more of a risk than Mexico. I and everyone else that travels back to the UK have more chance of catching it there than here, not my words.
What I will say HK is that this last few days the folk in the hotels have gone to another level re cleaning and masks etc. Some shops have closed, golf courses shut. Trips totally cancelled.etc etc.
Our rep is coming back to the UK with us because of the lockdown the hols/TUI have now finished. Been watchng the Mexico updates re the Virus. Gonna be interesting out here over the next few weeks.
Cheers for the link Hk me man

I wonder about on seeing this, whether people will actually start taking this seriously? Anyone who has been to the excel knows its MASSIVE! I am really quite scared that we are going to need this, and in the coming weeks, its gonna be full up...

Local news stating the NEC is preparing itself also as a regional hospital & morgue, all shows cancelled so all the halls are empty, that’s also a lot of space to fill ?

As already been stated the advice was don't travel unless you had to. Do you know everyone you're coming into contact with there, on flight back, at the airport upon your return is free from Covid19 and not putting you at risk of carrying it to. Of course you don't, therefore upon return rather than risking the health of your grandchildren you should be isolating away from them until you know you're clear. Stop trying to defend the indefensible.

You knew before you went what was happening but carried on regardless even when telling us there were confirmed cases near where you are and continued to spout tripe about how we back here should stop moving about.

Wolf at the time we flew, the advice re travel to mexico on the official government FOC website. Not the golf monthly travel opinion site, was Mexico is safe to travel to. So your tripe is wrong, otherwise how would we have got out here. I know a pegasus horse
We Would still be here til Saturday if the twats in the UK had not gone out en massee over the weekend. A month before I came out here Beezerk was here. Was he wrong to fly out here. No coz the FOC said it's ok to travel. Re a risk to our grandkids, we have more chance of catching something off them as they have been in a country that has a far higher rate of Covid than here. Would like to see where I have said there is confirmed cases near here.
 
Where is that lovely smirking Mrs Patel... A month ago, she was classifying a lot of people as 'unskilled' or 'low wages'..... Her boss thinks they are key workers. What a difference a month makes...

I’m in bed since returning home just after lunch, was suddenly hit with flu like symptoms whilst out on deliveries in London.

I’ve had colds & man flu’s before and they tend to slowly take a grip of you with various symptoms displaying themselves first before the main illness takes hold, but this has just hit me hard in a single blow within an hour, so much so I didn’t think at one point I was going to make it home!

I don't have a fever but I do have a dry cough, sneezing fits, runny and sensitive nose, my left eye is raw and almost closed like I’ve been in a scrap because it’s been watering up so much, I feel like shite!

I’m confident (currently) this is a flu symptom, but I’ve never known or experienced one coming on so quickly and so aggressively.

The weather was truly great today, it’s typical, the best day by a clear mile this year, if not for nigh on 6 months, and we all find ourselves in this awful situation with our love for golf, which is usually our escapism away from the daily madness, taken away, but staying safe, keeping healthy has to be our priority, let’s all get through this and come out the other side and get back out in those golf courses as quickly as possible ?

Get well soon Robin. Can’t believe a bug would dare have a go at you.

I've had the flu jab so reassured from that perspective that even if it's that it "should" be a mild form. I think it's a cold coming on, but trying not to tuck into the valuable paracetamol supply. I have lemsip and night nurse so got enough treatments to at least attack the bug initially.

I do wonder if you are on the constant wind up when I read your posts.
