    I am amazed at how many people are big into the gym, running, jogging and general fitness. WOW.

    And yet you just have to look around you to see many overweight people.

    Anyway, forced isolation might make many go out for a permitted walk at least, even twenty minutes, half an hour whatever instead of staring at screens and Instagram etc. Could be good for us all.

    Any chance this will blow over in the next week to ten days? Getting the feeling we've seen the worst/won't effect us majorly.

    The worst won't effect us? We're only at the beginning.

    Trump said he wants the US to ease coronavirus restrictions and be 'raring to go by Easter,'

    Surely he can't follow through with this lunacy if death tolls are still rising or plateauing at a high level come Easter


    By Easter a huge humanitarian disaster will have unfolded in the US. We are really seeing what a fool he is.

    There's always a chance but I'd say it's a similar likelihood to pulling a lad off a barstool after 12 pints and expecting him to race against Usain Bolt over 100metres and beat him.
    A lot of places were still fully operational staff wise up until 5-6 days ago so we're getting into **** hit the fan category over the next few days from my limited understanding of it.

    I would suspect they will be fine, I would think people are still stocked up from the panic buying.

    This isn't the flu.

    Well aware of that. So why are you so insistent a vaccine won't work because the virus mutates?

    What is the best salad dressing? or does anyone have any good recipes? I want to be prepared for when my window sill harvest is ready for eating.

    I know you are having a laugh at the Greenies, but for those like myself who ill hopefully have a patch of salad greens down the back of the garden, I can recommend an easy one...

    Extra Virgin Olive Oil, a pinch of garlic salt, and a touch of lemon juice. Shake it and enjoy. Best to put it in the bottom of the salad bowl, leaves on top, and then toss when ready.

    Jaysus any port in a storm to stave off inertia lol.

    Fitness has become more popular in recent years but also there's a lot of posers that talk a good game but do **** all other than hang around and take snaps.

    It’s proving to be an excellent medicine and New York ordered millions of pills. The idiots in Arizona ate fish food , that’s not on Trump. I tell you what if a doctor recommends it, if heaven forbid you get Coronavirus, don’t take it ok

    like directly off the barstool or does the lad have time to complete a decent training plan?

    Is it possible to report people that are not self isolating even though they got tested and haven't got results yet?
    Found out today my next door neighbour got tested yesterday, yet she was out walking around today and in the local shop and her husband has been going to work. f**kers could be infecting loads of people if she does have it.

    He's allowed a kebab or a pizza and to stick his fingers down his throat twice. One bottle of lucozade and one bottle of water to replace lost fluids also
