Do I need to take weapons? We did an inventory last night: 5 bottles of Bud, 1 can of Guinness, 36 bottles of Red, 17 bottles of white, 17 different types of Gin (about 15 largish bottles of various posh tonics and shit), 2L of Vodka, and loads of half bottles of various other weird shit like Ouzo, Arrack and Brandy etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-deploy the majority of the Traffic cops, they wont be needed as the roads will be more or less empty. 2. All them coppers who are uusually at Football matches and other events up and down the UK, surely they can be used.... what else would they be doing? 3. NO protests NO filth, more cops. 4. Less burglary, as the majority of us are at home. 5. No cops for shoplifters, hardly any open. 6. No cops needs for summer pride events and carnivals, they are usually just dancing, joining in and being downright pretentious anyway. -1. There could be more domestic abuse and the odd murder. -2. There MAY be looting, but very much doubt it if the above are deployed on the streets. If the Chief detective super Lieutenant cock balls cant sort that out, he shouldn't be in the job. ...or we get Jim 'Piss Pit' Carver, Reg Hollis, Tony Stamp, June (who was shaggin Jim), Burnside and the one and only Tosh Lines to sort it out 🚔 .

Just called in to see if they are open. Security on the gates saying they are closed due to the government announcement. Passed the Mercedes dealers, also closed. People turning up expecting their own services etc. Clear as mud. I closed yesterday by the way. Gove categorically said motor repair/service places can open, just keep in mind social isolating policies- in response to a direct question. Presumably a lot of these places are playing safe, have a number of staff off anyhow, or have insufficient custom to bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah the old “Grey economy” No handouts for those lads. The flip side to that is, some self employed people pay an accountant who uses every trick in the book to enable their client to pay as little tax as possible. The down side to this is when that person wants to obtain a mortgage or financial help from the government,as their accounts may not show enough net profit. Like someone said - you can’t have it both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limited company directors will be paid a salary through paye and then claim dividends IF they are also a shareholder and subject to the company being able to pay the dividends. So this latest thing doesn’t apply to them. if you own a limited company for the purposes of this you aren’t self employed I don’t believe. Maybe I’m wrong of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for those on official service plans or leases I can't see many if any official dealership servicing depts being open.
