    WFH doesn't really change how I do my job given that I'm the only one based up here anyway, the rest of the company is down south. Just means not sitting in a couple of hours (on a good day) of traffic and not having to pay for the dogs daycare. Only real difference is I've been told not to do...

    Peterborough Chairman Video

    This should be the case anyway. Players should be with the big clubs who have a chance at breaking through. Not hundreds signed so they can make money off them and they cast them aside. IMO the loan system would be much better if the parent club still paid wages and there was no fees, players...

    I popped to Ikea at lunchtime to get a desk for home thinking there would be nobody in there. Loads of people wandering aimlessly around and buying random crap, people really aren't listening to the advice. Was plenty of meatballs though so grabbed a couple of bags of those for the freezer.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Pretty much every club is doing it. Did notice in the video Dave Busst posted that he said they deliver to people in need every week and are still doing that while things are in short supply.

    The importance of momentum

    They're still in training aren't they? Sure I read something saying Robins had dropped it down to 3 days but they will still doing something.

    Coronavirus

    If they're doing anything would think it would be working on converting hotels to temporary hospitals or assisting the emergency services if they have a significant number off sick. Can't imagine tanks rolling through Broadgate to encourage people to stay at home!

    Coronavirus

    If its the video I've seen its 3 tanks being moved. Same thing that happens all the time. Even if the army were being called it not very likely they're going to be going round in tanks is it?

    Who owns Virgin Group, the majority shareholder of Virgin Atlantic, now? Tried googling the answer but not getting anything but Branson.

    Supermarket shortages

    But how do they know who is vulnerable. I've done a click and collect for a weeks time but its for my Mum and Dad who are in their 80s, can't go to the store and got completely confused when they tried to do it online. How do they know its for them and not me? Would rather know if they aren't...

    Think they only own 49%, isn't the rest still owned by Virgin Group (ie Branson).

    So you can only borrow £183K. What have we lost, roughly, in ticket revenue for the remaining games? Is that what they're trying to compensate for? Then they hope it all gets sorted over the summer and back to business as usual next season.

    Supermarket shortages

    Anyone know what is happening with deliveries, can't find any info online. If you can actually book a slot and get an order in are they picking your order overnight when there's actually stock or is the van going to turn up and you get about three things from your order as everything else was...

    Presume you will still owe it and have to pay it at some point. Just they can't kick you out if you can't pay now.

    Won't there have to be a wait of months while its tested? They can't just go 'that works' and give it to everyone only to realise 6 months later there's a fatal side effect.

    I work in IT support covering companies who have outsourced their support. Could even begin to count the number of conversations I've had with clients over the last few years about setting people up to work remotely but most managers think working remotely equals not doing anything. Strangely...

    This is all I'm dealing with at the moment. Trying to talk people through remote access that struggle to login when its just a matter of putting their username and password in when they're at the office. Frustrating as for years we've been advising clients to setup remote working, ironic really...

    Supermarket shortages

    Just spoken to my Mum who insisted on going and doing her usual weekly shop at Sainsburys today despite being told not to and that I'd do it for her. Was there at 8am as usual, had to queue to get in and the shelves were empty. She then tried to book click and collect / home delivery to save...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    Hows it going to be implemented though. You would hope someone like Wasps can't go we're looking at losing £10m over the next 6 months and have that covered. Won't they look at recent trading and say you were losing that anyway we're not covering it?
