Site Supporter Spider Posted March 17, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted March 17, 2020 Just strolled into Horwich, bought some fresh meat from Greeleys, loads of fresh veg from the greengrocers, few beers from the co-op and it took about 10 minutes. The lady in the fruit n veg shop was grinning from ear to ear as she's never been busier. Milk was on the doorstep this morning. Go local, it's ace.

There's going to be some winners out of this and deservedly so, they've had it tough for too long. Hopefully people will see the benefit of keeping cash local.

Not easy at times, but don't get supermarket meat, veg from farm shop whenever possible. Chucks from a house up towards Ainsworth; though they have a lot fewer in winter, as they aren't as productive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that is the case with kids still at school and many activities "advisory" for the well/young population. We'll see if this works. Like a concertina, I guess. Yep, same aim - its all we can do. Different strategy. The paper talked about closures of schools, colleges etc so I'd be expecting those to follow fairly soon. it talked about protecting people in NHS so again perhaps schools open with small staff just for NHS workers to keep those on frontline. I expect public organisations etc to be closing down fairly soon. In terms of measures we're moving now over the next few weeks towards Italy, Ireland, Spain and France. Our plans are basically (with the odd tweak here and there) theirs. Edited March 17, 2020 by bwfcfan5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The under-50 Netherlands cases are infected with a mutation of Corona, provisionally named 'Dos Equis'... Looking into getting some weaponry mesen...realistic cO2 airguns, maybe an AR-15 with a Beretta 92fs sidearm and some darts to poison tip with Vape Juice. Might invest in a Rambo knife and a black widow with a big bag of marbles too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
