What a strange period this is and it is hard to see things in perspective. That the man leading the fight against the virus is seriously ill after getting it himself is totally shocking and makes me for one feel very uneasy and worried.

Asking for the Derbyshire police.
Or deaths at home, god knows what will be found after with single people with no support. I hears that Madrid fire brigade are spending a lot of time on forced entry when people realize they haven’t seen their neighbour for a week. Is there any similar experiences in the UK?

By the way has this breathing exercise been cited yet? JK Rowling swears by it.

I've been known to have a coffee right before bed.
My first time out of house for 18 days.

This will make the effects on the global economy worse.

The paper reports that the EU’s top scientist, who only started a four-year term job on 1 January, was disappointed at having failed to persuade Brussels to mount a coordinated response to the pandemic. It quotes hi as saying:
I arrived at the ERC a fervent supporter of the EU [but] the Covid-19 crisis completely changed my views, though the ideals of international collaboration I continue to support with enthusiasm.
There is a major disruption to the entire world economy and supply chains are tearing at the seams. The supermarkets are literally struggling to ensure there is food on the shelves to ensure people can eat. They are struggling to ensure they can deliver that food if they can, so that people can eat.
People being able to put food on their plate with the minimum amount of journeys to the supermarket is the only thing that matters right now, not country of origin.
There is a time and a place to worry about air miles. It is not now. Not today.

Will involve global and spending and global response and spending. But global.
And spending.

Spare a thought for some of those who will have their careers destroyed over this crisis. I speak of the people who are breaking rules and going against the system to get things done.
I am quite, quite sure that a number of those involved in the procurement of the new ventilators, the Nightingale hospitals etc will be attacked and destroyed. After all the apparatchiks who really run our country can't be asked to tolerate that they should have their rules broken and be embarrassed - just for the sake of saving some tens of thousands of lives.
A particular favourite of this kind of reaction is try and brand those who did most to fix the problem with *being* the problem. The classic in this genre is the charging of police officers who fight corruption with being corrupt.
The fixers and doers will be forced to resign, fired or demoted. The useless will give each other awards.
Also there is no “h” in cappuccino. “H” after “c” does not make the “c” soft in Italian. What on earth is the problem with Sainsbury’s and Asda buying meat from farmers in the U.K.?
Yes I know dont say it.
The police will be furious
One NHS source told HSJ the site was jettisoned at the very last moment.

Leave to marinate for 2 or 3 hours and then cook.
It did cause me some concern the other day when I was delivering contact detail leaflets that a number of houses had not taken in their mail for several days. Although as someone mentioned on here that could be because they are cautious about the virus being carried on mail.
But right now supply chains are falling apart and demand is skyrocketing.
The only issue that matters is ensuring there is stock on the shelves. How do you know the farmers meat supply hasn't been tapped and they need more? You think farmers are being turned away right now?
They need stock. Nothing else matters.

The higher the roast, the less caffeine survives. A No. 2 roast is high in caffeine whereas a No. 6 (or 7) is nearly decaff by comparison.
Do they really think that the civil service hadn't drawn up or wargamed a PM being ill?

It took PB about 5 mins to find the flaws and also the fact that even by the last few days data, their model is spitting out BS. Just like the Imperial one that said 7,000 deaths in the UK.
I do wonder if any of these journalists have any experience reading academic papers and then thinking for themselves about what they are claiming. Or are they literally reading the abstract / conclusion and writing a story on it?
Every time I've been to the supermarket recently the meat shelves have been half empty and choice is very restricted on what is available. I simply don't believe quality British meat is being turned away - and while I always go for Red Tractor meat normally, right now all I want is to get into the supermarket and out again with a full trolley as quickly, safely and infrequently as I can.
Farmed in Lancashire or Latvia, Portsmouth or Poland, Bolton or Bolivia - right now I couldn't care less so long as my family and I have something to eat. If all they have available is imports for some reason then put it on the shelves.
And yup, life is pretty calm around here at the minute, glad you're not as busy as you feared so far!
