Clean up in aisle 3:16.
Greta Thunberg has it...
2 month old baby boy has it in NSW.

She has her fucking shite. That’s enough.
I feel weird tonight. Not even symptoms that I've heard associated with this, so it's probably an un related hell I'm heading for. My chest is sore (as in my 'tits', not my heart/lungs), my bollocks are aching and I'm itching all over.
Me and the mrs can now both smell smoke with no obvious sign in the house so we're either experiencing some new coronavirus symtpoms or we have a ghost.
Burning corpses?
Sometimes my flat gets taken over by the smell of crap takeaway from the students upstairs. I hate that.

"The NHS will treat coronavirus patients in a makeshift field hospital in the ExCeL Centre in East London."
We're going nuclear.
If you'd told me on 1 January that by 24 March the Excel would be turned into a makeshift field hospital, I think I'd have shat my pants.
Virgin Australia has reduced capacity for domestic flight by 90%.

My Sister has it, or is as sure as she can be that she does.
She also aches all over so 2/2 for that symptom.
One of my Wife's Aunties has just put on the family WhatsApp group that she got her daughter and husband to do a video for her Mum and Dad, 'so they could say hello' and she went round to show them last night. "They loved it. You could all do the same?"
Her parents are both in their 90's. One of them in stage 4 renal failure and the Aunte in question works at Southend Hospital.
The group chat is now exploding with various essays calling her every form of idiot you could think up. Meanwhile she responds with carefully considered responses like 'I only do Admin there, I'm not on the wards!' and 'What, we're just meant to not see our parents for 12 weeks?!'
Fuck me. How is it possible to not get it at this point.

You could not see them for 12 weeks or not see them ever again, a tempting choice perhaps in some cases but come on.
First day working from home today, back in for my stint on Monday but it feels refreshing not to have to risk your life in order to go to the loo.
We've been asked to join the support call queue at work. Not doing that lol.
Still in the office today, but everyone is being mindful of one another. People not passing in the corridors and whatnot so it's definitely sinking in here. More measures for distancing and absolute vats of alcohol gel/sanitiser to use at all times too.
"risk your life"
Got my key worker letter. Now all I need is some children.

That's really fucking nice. When they announced they needed that many volunteers, I didn't expect that kind of immediate response.

I have a video on my phone... What's the easiest way to share on here? Imgur doesn't seem to allow video upload.
Found it on YouTube. Probably not worth it
Oh, that's the joke.
I lol"d

Prince Charles has it. It will all be worthwhile if it takes out that whole family.
I've just had two kids at the door with a sponsorship form for something or other. Terrific timing lads.
They don't live together, mate. The Royals, I mean.
We have finally been moved onto doing just emergency work. I kicked off massively this morning.
The housing association distinguish all work as either routine or emergency. We were told by the government to only do essential work inside peoples properties and we were still doing routine jobs. I had a job today to fit radiator cabinets, in what world is that essential? I told them I thought it was negligent behaviour.
Spain:
-47610 infected (+7937)
-3434 dead (+738)
-5367 recovered (+1573, the only positive news)
Nicholas Witchell, talking about Charles and Camilla both isolating in Balmoral when he's got the virus and she doesn't, has just said the following; 'Well it's not a huge house, but certainly big enough for them each to isolate within it.'

Yep, I'm sure they'll manage.
Christ they might only have 50 odd rooms each.
Thoughts and prayers.
Queen Meghan incoming.
