Coronavirus (4 Viewers)

[Covstu]

I have had messages more or less everyday for the last 2 week asking how I am coping with the situation here. I am not sure what people think is going on but nothing is any different whatsoever apart from there's been the first few days of rain since December.

Where are you planning on going in Italy?

Just wash your hands apparently although it is worrying (when you do start noticing toilet habits) that many dont!
The plan was to go to Venice move to Florence then back to Venice. Flights both ends have been cancelled which is fucked our plans but maybe a saving grace. We booked hotels and can see us having an issue with refunds due to non cancellation policies but hoping they cancel!

Ahhh shit sorry to hear that! It is worth trying to get a refund for the hotels, I reckon you'd be able to.

A cup of tea for dinner? She’s going to be hungry.

I have my dinner at tea time and I call it tea.

Supposed to have been going to NY in a couple of weeks but had to cancel because of American Americans cancelling flights from Milan, the hysteria around it is all actually incredible. It's amazing how the media can whip people up into a frenzy.

I was just in Sainsburys. Nearly all the pasta, toilet roll and hand wash were gone.

I actually got some extra things in because I'll be fucked if I'm wiping my arse with a pillow because every wanker has went out and bought toilet roll.

Yup.

Old school.

 

[Flying Fokker]

Me as well.

 

[shmmeee]

At what stage will people start panic buying?

I'm tempted to raid Tescos of their BBQ Beef Hula Hoop supplies. Just in case.

Already had two conversations with people who are stocking up on toilet rolls (why? Use the shower if it comes to it) and food.

 

[Flying Fokker]

How are all the religious people going to be passing the goblet of wine around at mass?

Surely the cloth they wipe it with, wouldn't be suffiecient?

The have been told not to dip their ‘bread’ but are allowed to drink. Maybe the could have a very narrow straw.

It’s all fucking bizarre !!! From memory, worst case scenario was 20% of people off work at some point, when has that meant there is going to be no shit roll left in the shops ?!!

Also self isolation is supposed to be two weeks so surely sufficient food and shit roll for that period should be adequate for most ?!

God has a lot to answer for!

As long as it paper

 

[Liquid Gold]

I’m ready for it. Gonna start licking hand rails*. Get me the time off and get it done. I’m going to get it anyway.l, would rather do it now while it’s still cool.


*i’m not going to do this.

It looks like in the post apocalyptic world the new currency will be bog roll

Also going to be the case though. Nothing else matters when you are desperate for a shit. And you can’t doing anything else if you’ve got the shits. The entire fulcrum of your life is your anus.

Ffs, I thought it was just America or a joke about the loo roll situation.

Just been to get some essentials (crate of beer, beats chest) and the whole fucking loo roll aisle is empty!

I genuinely needed some for the house as I was on the last roll, unlike the freaks panic buying.

Post nut clarity helps too.

Apparently we could all be quarantined at home for two weeks.

I hope Pornhub's servers will be able to cope.

Will there be one of those power surges that is said to happen e.g. When people put the kettle on at half time in Xmas Coronation Street?

I've good a Huawei phone and the dictionary brought up Coronavirus ahead of Coronation there

 

[fernandopartridge]

I work in a company of around 30 people. Someone came back from Italy with a sore throat, so someone else in the office signed themselves off for 2 weeks....

Good luck to them

26k died of flu in England a couple of years ago. 500 per week. Hmm

Difference between that flu has been long established and mutates, there is a vaccine too if not fully effective. Coronavirus is new, no vaccine, highly contagious and spreading. Old people and those with pre existing illness are not irrelevant.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

There must be some twitchy people in the House of Lords.

I will keep a look out for an increase in toilet rolls going through our system tonight and report in later

 

[Covstu]

Can you get bog roll on amazon prime!?

Yep shit loads of choice

That's the whole point, attention and resources should be concentrated on those elderly and those with pre-existing illness.

Thank god i bought a 9 pack last week, might have to start rationing it, 2 squares per visit

 

[Liquid Gold]

You’re more likely to pick it up if you drink too much and use drugs so that’s what I’m going to do... still

The wife has bought enough for us to pay for a ground in Coventry.

Lol- first sign of anything out the ordinary here and the shelves are wiped clean of bread, potatoes & milk, it’s like a stampede tonight at the local Lidl :wacky:

Haha she was from Limerick, even today the anti Cork bias is still with me.

Shit !

depends on the quality of the shitroll I guess. I’ve got some of that blitz kitchen roll that I can cut into suitably sized squares if necessary (Only one square needed with that stuff !)

I have grandparents from Limerick.

We're probably related somehow. Are you insanely handsome?
