When your metabolism is gone it’s gone. It’s an age thing. One you hit a certain age then there’s no point in putting yourself through it and wasting your time.

Well that’s that then. If you are overweight at 30 you may as well embrace the heart disease and diabetes. No point trying to do something about it.
Nah not true. Control what you eat, do a bit of exercise, stay alert.
If you’re already fucked then you might as well enjoy what’s left than exercising for no reason and dying full of lettuce and sadness.Quote:

We can here too but you can only travel 5km to do so. 20km from June 18th and hopefully I can go home to sit outside from the end of July. Fairly shitty that it only benefits people that live within 5km of their family.
No (unless I've missed something). Shockingly BoJo and the boys are happy to open the schools and the shops but we're to remain content with shouting at our loved ones from across the road.Quote:

You can currently meet one other person in a park, but not in someone's garden, unless it's Robert Peston.
I could play golf with my mate the other night for 4 hours, but I can't have dinner with my parents in their garden.
One person. In a park. From a distance.Quote:

They seem to be spacing things by 2-3 weeks (down here, anyway). Presumably to allow for the incubation period and give them the chance to slam the breaks on if sending Tilly and Tarquin back to school causes a spike.Quote:

Shouldn’t you all be doing the same thing? Like, UK and all that?Quote:

I'm trying to think how many of them were actually tested. Was it literally just Boris who had confirmed Covid?
Are private schools reopening?Quote:

To Lewis and others: are the self-isolation requirements (for if you believe you have symptoms) just NHS/government guidelines, or are they somehow enshrined in the Coronavirus-related legislation (i.e., the same legislation that says you can't have a gathering of more than x number of people)?
Last night I dreamed that Dom was controlling the spread of the virus by tinkering with the genome on an excel sheet and typing in names to kill. He's in my head too.
"Take that, Bernard Castle!"
Next door had a full blown party yesterday, with at least three other households all in their house and garden.
Spread it more, please. I don’t wanna go back to working in the office until at least October, cos I like sunbathing too much.
Had a glorious piss-up yesterday and I can safely say the Cum-effect led to scenes yesterday, wall-to-wall regulatory violations. Just look at the weather for this week too :drool:
Someone react quick.
Following the Cummings Eye Test method being unveiled maybe that's just how we test for liver disease now and Taz wanted to make sure his was in good shape.
That’ll get the barbecues fired up.
:drool:
There will be MILLIONS of disappointed psychopaths who will be greeting when it doesn't happen. :happycry:
I saw former failed Kent cricketer and thick posho Fabian Cowdrey tweet yesterday that he believes, due to Cummings's actions, there will be a second spike in London this week.
I'll take his word over the WHO, thank you very much.
Yes, that is ultimately the mechanism of this place, you [insert expletive here] [insert verb here] [insert adjective here] [insert noun here].Quote:

Basically back to normal now. At least people have learned how to wash their hands and practice a bit better personal hygiene.
That's a big claim but fingers crossed. Enjoy the office @BazQuote:

My nipples are getting a good roasting from working in the garden. Most of the support grants have been paid out. Hardly any coming in. I really should be furloughed now.
Ah well :cool:
They were guidelines. The legislation only touches on health matters with a list of underlying medical conditions that expand the definition of 'vulnerable' used.Quote:

Right, which I think is the crux of your argument about him not contravening any actual legs & regs.Quote:

You're not kidding. I have been struggling for a little while with my health but I was trying to resolve said issues before fucking it off and moving away again but for the last 2/3 weeks maybe I've been having sharp chest pains, hearts been racing even if I do very little and difficulty breathing, mostly in the evenings but it seemed to come and go. I just put things down to not working and not moving much plus the stress of not knowing how I am going to pay my bills etc. I got as far as Truro a few days ago and collapsed. Maybe it as lugging my suitcases around or whatever but I don't remember too much.Quote:

I should be out in a day or two but thanks for your words chaps.
A mild annoyance going on (you know how we love our Krispy Kreme) but could you imagine if this was over your way or in the US.
It's because they don't want face coverings in their shops.

Good effort, didn’t quite work.
