Precious cargo that

Aye, tis. She was made up when the diet doctor person told her a glass of wine is good cos it enhances appetite.

So was I, cos I can now buy it with a clear conscience that its essential!

Depends how the lockdown is lifted. It will almost certainly be phased, so the pubs won’t open for a few weeks after any lifting of restrictions start.....it will be interesting to see what happens......

Reckon more folk will want a hair cut!

I am absolutely astounded by the amount of people who actively want to live in a police state.

I think a lot of them just want an excuse/reason to slag off the govt. If they ordered a total lockdown the same people will be saying it's too harsh

I'm eyeing up my trimmers and thinking about giving it a go, i should have a good few weeks to let it grow out when it goes badly wrong

I honestly believe that if the lock down was lifted or reduced, folk would still observe how it is now.

I was thinking the same not everyone but a high percentage .I can see people keeping their distance for quite a while wanting their own personal space at least until a vaccine is found.

Strike a light. Phoned me elderly (obvs) parents earlier asking if they needed anything earlier.

"Nothing but some basics son, bananas, full fat greek yogurt, seedless grapes, and 4 pints of milk"

KIn biblical queue at Sainsburys, so sacked them off, but got the lot at the local Co oP. Now that sounds easy, but I challenge GOT to even find FULL FAT Greek yogurt. Hens teeth sprung to mind.

I am absolutely astounded by the amount of people who can't just do what they are told... to stop people dying.

That's fair comment. The restrictions we have in place now are sufficient. What we need is effective deterrent for those flouting the rules

On a totally unimportant point, I reckon the radio broadcasters have been brilliant in all this. Talksport has been so imaginative by still being slightly daft, but not ignoring the issue.

TV, less so. Tonight for example there a two CV based shows. I mean, come on.

People are scared mate.

Yeah, because that's what everyone is saying. How they love being locked in their own homes and how great social isolation is.

Just shut the computer down and now off to Wednesday.

Have no idea what to do though. It still feels so strange.

Was reading something the other day about a woman walking back from her local Sainsbury's in Scotland. She was pulled up by 2 coppers who demanded they showed her what was in her bag, she had a bottle of wine, crisps and a few other bits, the coppers deemed what she had in her bag as non - essential so they fined her £30.

That's mad mate.

Lots would definitely

But enough wouldnt. It's far too early to change the rules. The death tolls are still horrendous and I dunno why people are even suggesting we need things relaxed.

Made the mistake, three days ago, of letting my wife have a go at my hair, with my son's, beard trimmer electric razor.
Well theirs no fool like an old fool
Booked off time from work. ( supposed to be in Antalya) with wife and Grandaughter right now, so I knew I had about 10 days for these two baldish patches on the back of my head to grow. My son, who is experienced with the razor and heard the laughing from upstairs,salvaged my head somehow. Still glad I've got another five days off though. I now think hairdressers should be key workers.lol
