Coronavirus - how is it/has it affected you?

I know we're miles apart on the "Maggie" issue but "the rest of us" is totally wrong but I do accept that there are two very different camps on her reign but I'm not going to waste the next few hours arguing the matter because neither you or I will ever agree the matter.

'The rest of us' is the Society she destroyed & which we need now more than ever...... but you'll always find those who are happy that she sold them their council house that me & my kids are still paying for.

I didnt get to buy a council house, you are not still paying for it, the "rest of us" are only those who dont think she saved the country from the decline we were plummeting into but you know what Dave we will never agree so why argue?

No idea what they're doing but my experience of German health care was bloody wonderful. I woke up in Bielefield hospital with multiple wounds stitched up a fresh metal plate m, some wonderful drugs all with a lovely view of the gardens and a rather atrractive nurse bringing me a plate of cold cuts, cheeses, breads and fresh coffee. She also took my lunch orders and dinner orders along with what beer I wanted. I have no idea what she said I was to busy admiring how attractive she was and in shock that the treatment was so swift and pleasant.

Oh no I still remember her well she was a very attractive curly blonde haired young lass. The one I had on the evening shifts however was akin to a 1970s female German shot Putter ?

Not enough. They are talking about a full curfew from the weekend. Too many people behaving stupidly. There were so many people self isolating in a park that it was full. Kids not in school gathering in skate parks. ...
One region in Bavaria already has this now because they had exponential growth of virus earlier this week.

You were very fortunate then?
But as long as they look after you they could look like Marty Feldman imo.

Working from home now, have been all week, whilst only leaving the house to go to food shops. I am a diabetic so pretty much house bound at the moment.

You know...... I don't need you to agree so that I can point out that a lot of whats happening now is due to the damage to society that The Witch did 30 odd years ago. The fact she got a lot out of paying Council rents is something we're all paying for now as we try to get affordable housing available. But hey ho.... you & the Scabs did OK out of her but that won't put out bonfires around here.

I hope everyone is keeping their mental health in check.
I know theres some one here who struggle occasionally, me included, and we need to stop any bickering that brings everything down.
This forum needs to be as happy a place as possible for the foreseeable future..

"Hi, my name is Hobbit, and I need to trade. Anyone got any butter? I've got 4 tins of HEINZ beans - not cheap Chinese copies. Also, HID has ran out of coffee. Can trade some Fray Bentos pies...?"

"Anyone out there dealing?"

And due to the UK thinking it's won't happen here, it will. We should have got all this done a week ago. We are so far behind where we should be and have learnt sweet fanny adams from what has happened in Spain and Italy, that we will have to enforce lock downs as well.
 
I get the feeling some non essential Govt departments and agencies will shut down quite soon.
Driving tests have been suspended in N Ireland for 12 weeks.
No word on here yet as the belief is they will be suspended as part of new measures announced in the coming days.
