    Not even Penney’s!

    who shoplifts from penneys?

    Seems they are more vulnerable than the rest of the community and are asking for more help. http://tippfm.com/news/health/traveller-community-risk-coronavirus/

    I just always assume thats their default statement on any situation the country has to deal with.

    Margaret Cash was done for shoplifting from Penny's!

    If takeaways, and garage food counters close, traveller's will starve before the virus gets them

    Are they washing their hands five times a day do you think?

    They must have highly developed immune systems tho

    A place I work in would have a lot of traveller clientele, one lad who had to attend recently was sitting down with us getting a cup of tea, and he picked up the milk jug by putting his thumb into the spout of the jug, his hands were mank , there was an instant consensus that the milk was gone off and all tea was put down the sink

    Clandestine handshakes exchanging money and bags etc are a thing of the past. Only dealers who take PayPal from now on. It's the local scumbags who'll be hit most

    The move to cashless everything is going to make paying for, and indeed consuming certain drugs (coke) quite complicated for a few months I would think.

    Until the dealers get their hands on a portable payment terminal.

    Drug dealers will be going through a difficult period now with their revenues down.

    But debts still have to be paid.

    We can expect to see a big increase in gangland violence in the coming weeks and months due to unpaid debts.

    Hopefully they will wipe out as many of themselves as possible.

    Will be interesting to see if relatives of travellers infected and in need of hospitalisation, will flock to A+E as they usually do?

    The army might be needed to keep the extended families out, hospital staff will be under enough pressure without having to negotiate wards ( pun not intended) crammed with the extended family of tinkers admitted

    My brother lives in Berlin and he told me the guy he buys his weed off is also selling hand sanitiser and face masks :pac:

    if one of them gets it they will probably all get it.

    With a bit of luck, they'll have underlying health conditions.

    200 quids worth


    which equates to two skips

    200 quid of stolen gear equates to about 5 minutes community service with the judges these days.

    Honestly I'm surprised more drug dealers aren't doing drone deliveries by now. This might increase that and thereby take some of the risk and danger out of the drugs trade for both consumer and dealer as a side effect. Imagine being able to pay for your drugs using Bitcoin or some other relatively safe method of online payment and then have the drugs delivered to you via drone as opposed to having to meet some dodgy character etc?

    Won't somebody please think of the drug dealers!

    edit: I've just realised this is the thread title, I'm clearly cracking up already.
    Speaking of upping crack, do drug mules qualify as essential travel ?
