    Of course the only thing Mahow has expertise on is wiping your arse with your hand.

    As long as it’s back on sale by June. Can’t be festivalling in your mid-thirties without such comforts and practicalities.

    Is that not as much the bad weather as people panicking? The shelves are usually empty at least 3-4 times a year for seemingly no reason, let alone after storm whorehay.

    Nah, I reckon 'dry goods' is panic, most of the fresh shit is empty most weeks when the wind is blowing above a zephyr, and they also never seem to have any milk, which is locally produced, so I think basic fecklessness comes into it as well.

    I've been reading around a bit this morning and reckon this is about to go off like a rocket. I reckon we'll all (where possible) be working from home within a fortnight and the elderly will all be in quarantine.

    Hopefully it peaks and passes before companies start going out of business.

    I also don't think the Champions League will be completed.

    Yeah, this is going big. China have either done well quarantining it internally with totalitarian nutcase tactics, or are lying through there teeth about the figures.

    It's ready to go boom everywhere else and will do so, especially because we'll probably just ban a bit of sport and give the kids a week off.

    Also if you're not making a fortune on the stock market shorting against airlines and ferry companies you need to start now.

    I'm surprised that all sporting events aren't already taking place behind closed doors. Seems like people are waiting for it to take off before, before actually trying to curtail it. Should've taken a lead out of Vietnam's book.

    I reckon it will have burned itself out in a couple of months. It might linger around in India and wherever for a bit longer but oh well.

    Just loads of articles with unnamed government sources hinting they're going to blow the country up next week.

    It's one those things that will probably jam life to a halt for a bit and then disappear as quickly.

    I thought about the country shutting down for two weeks but that would probably cripple plenty of businesses. The government's not going to foot the bill for that and business doesn't like to stop. Boris didn't half shit the bed when he decided travel was still very much fine and dandy.

    That said, I get the feeling my flights will be cancelled. 10 days is a fucking age and this is not slowing down.



    Here's the guy that tried to battle it with whiskey and honey for 24 days.

    They'd still win it but the season would just be cut short.

    Loo roll aisle completely deserted today. What is the deal with that, is it all made in china or something? Seems the oddest thing to go mental about stockpiling.

    I think it's literally them stocking up because they think, "Well, I've gotta wipe my arse with something."

    It's all because of a handful of cretins buying up 20 packs at a time. This then leaves normal people buying 2 or 3 in case they can't get any for a while. It's pathetic.

    Probably because the anal bastards are recording all the cases properly. Won't see that sort of flex in Italy as they buzz around sharing Vespas and leather jackets.

    This 'no hand shake rule' for Premier League games is amazing. Literally no thought has gone into it at all. It's a contact sport lads.

    Could the virus not be transmitted on the ball?

    I'm a big fan of a societal shift from handshakes to salutes, mind.

    Bit of an open goal for Giggles there Jim.

    All the players were shaking hands etc at the end of the Liverpool game, having fastidiously avoided doing so at the outset.

    This hospital collapsing is proper China Greatest Hits album stuff. If it turns out that it spreads mostly due to people crowding at the top and bottom of stairs I can die of it happy.

    The Italians attempting to quarantine entire regions should be a laugh. They will have given up and switched sides by Friday.

    I went to the big Tesco earlier. Almost cleaned out of toilet rolls with 'Maximum 2 per person' displayed. Rice completely gone. Pasta almost gone (except for loads of rigatoni, and loads of the marginally more expensive kind of spaghetti). Tins of baked beans and tins of tuna (why? it's shite) completely gone. Tins of tomatoes completely gone, but tins of literally anything else (kidney beans, other beans, fruit, lentils, pulses etc) fully available and plentiful.

    Yet perhaps the ultimate high energy food - chocolate - barely touched, and indeed they seem not to be able to shift easter eggs at all, they're all on offer.

    I don't get it. If you're getting into war mode does your menu shrink to tuna pasta?

    The people doing the buying are fucking idiots.

    Interestingly the only pasta left here the other day was spaghetti and an almost untouched stock of macaroni, so variation on a theme there.

    Listen Jim. If you talk shit about Tuna Pasta again we're going to have a falling out.
