Lockdown and feeling like a volcano ready to explode....
I was mulling this over on my drive home from work. These guys are huge muscular lumps with little mobility or flexibility. I'm trying to imagine them swinging a punch, ducking a punch, moving around a ring, basically doing anything a proper boxer would do. I can't get past a comedy visualisation of two blokes in sumo fatsuits wiggling their arms about in a futile manner. (I know they are not fat but it is the arm movement of the analogy that I see)
They have a niche, boxing is not it.

Absolutely why it's irritating me as they have no niche in this sporting arena. Eddie Hall is past his strongman best and Thor is breaking records with lifts but watching them box will be dull and like watching 2 buses over take each other on a single lane carriageway

Seem to be feeling the anger a lot more thanks to being trapped indoors. I just tried to record some guitar for a track in Garageband at lunch, but my fingers wouldn't co-operate and I played like crap so it was a total waste of time. Now sat fuming at my own hands for letting me down and wasting an hour.
I sometimes feel that playing guitar is a bit like golf. Some days I pick it up and feel like I can play like Eddie Van Halen and the next day like Eddie the Eagle.

Booking a flight, airline says they are flying make payments adjust hotel bookings ... then airline cancels 24 hrs later when the flight booking is for 12 days in advance.
i know the situation is fluid, but really there is no intention to fly, just to take money and then only offer something else .. which then won’t let you pay.
I had no choice but to book as they are telling everyone it’s going and me saying they aren’t is not credible despite me being completely correct. Argh ?

Neighbours who are in the "vulnerable category", since Sunday they have had food deliveries from both Waitrose AND Tesco, a delivery from the local pharmacy, yet have still found the need to go out every day in the car and come home with shopping
The "holiday home" neighbours who live well over 100 miles way who seem to have turned up yesterday or today!!

Our local tip/recycling centre is reopening today for "essential waste that cannot safely be stored at home"
What the hell do they think were going to bring..?
Spent nuclear fusion rods from Chernobyl..?
And who decides what's essential and what isn't when it comes to waste and whether it can safely be stored at home..normal waste collection is in operation for household waste one week, followed by recycling the next. Food waste every week and the garden waste collections restart from monday.
Surely something like a refuse tip is either open or closed...

For what seems like many years sightings of constables have been very rare in these parts... Now they've become a regular occurrence... Seems they are responding to calls from curtain twitchers... Yea, I can see there's possibly a positive in there... But, it's hard to comprehend when common response, in recent times, for 'real' crime has been provision of a number...

If you're bin men were ripping open your rubbish bags to check on whats inside them and leaving bags with stuff they don't like or have been told not to take you would want your refuse sites open.

I believe some local authorities have tried staggering days folk can dump based on vehicle registration... A bit like Paris did when trying to deal with air pollution...

Our locals open may 11th. But nowt on golf yet. It's utter, well you know what. Frustrations are going to boil over soon. I'm getting very close now.

The ones near us are opening for wood and garden waste only, which is reasonably as there are plenty of people gardening to kill time and plenty of gardening to do at this time of year. Need to book a time slot and it is cars only, no vans, pickups or trailers.

Hey maybe we should force this over the line and demonstrate at our golf clubs? Showing full consideration to social distancing just to show it can be done. If bluddy football keeps on getting the headlines it's about time the R+A got their useless finger out and started putting some pressure on. Just what do we get from them anyway? In our hour of need where the hell are they?

Or merely wait a few days for the announcement that's coming about beginning to open things up. The R&A has nothing to do with the government deciding on locking down the nation for thr benefit of its people.
The R&A aren't there to pressure governments into removing a lock down in a global pandemic they are there to set the rules and governance of the game not human life ?
