Obviously this comment might bite me hard, but the last 3 days don’t seem to be as exponential as I expected.

Could the measures be working already?

Coastal paths are pretty damn good up there. Why are you suggesting it’s fake?

Nah I disagree. Just takes you to places that you probably wouldn’t visit otherwise. I’ve done an awful lot of these places on business but never stopped to see them

hopefully visit some of the islands as well in summer as well some of the best beaches in the world up here

Can never get served at the counter now anyway for all the Ubereats drivers scrapping over orders.

It’s a great country

Been to many places, inc N and S Uist and Benbecula; some of finest beaches anywhere, especially if the sun’s out*

Why?

Free market and all that.

Don't mind the odd one too.

Schools cannot keep open. People still don’t get that the country is going to have to completely stop. Eventually. And sooner rather than later. We are going to be where Italy are. 

Don’t think so myself.

Loads of that 330bn will end up in theirs and similar eateries

Disgusting food for one. wouldn’t feed it to the dog  

but I’ve also dealt with them in a business sense also and a friend of mine became very poor (after being very well off) dealing with a dispute with them so I’m not the biggest fan

Fair enough on the second point.

Food is fine so long as you don't have it continually- that goes for takeaways as a whole though.

Had a kebab last night, unfortunately lad ordered a mixed one with chicken and donner. Now that stuff is shit, processed elephant leg.

See I love a donner kebab. Each to their own

On a positive note, we will all be returning to Football trim as fook.

It was pretty quiet tbh ... But then again, looking at what was left I'm not surprised. There was no meat, no bread, no pasta, no tinned veg, etc etc. 

I've managed to get enough to cobble together about three teas by which time hopefully they'll have restocked and all those fucking imbeciles are still sat at home eating their pasta and baked beans sandwiches.

Would imagine a well timed dive to see basking sharks would be spectacular.

As a kid we stayed at port William. Went on the rocky shore and could see the occasional fin.

Then this bloke emerges from the surf - been for a swim - carrying a pipe fish that had literally swum into his hands.

One of those strange events that doesn't leave you.

Morrison's at breightmet wasn't too bad. Milk was very low but other stuff available.

It depends on whether people follow the advice far enough. I really hope as a society people do. But NHS intensive care at 90% capacity and rising. And Boris warned today of more extreme measures possibly being needed. People really do need to stay in their homes and try and slow this and hopefully we can avoid forced lockdowns.

Mate of mine has just been to Asda.  No bread, no milk, no meat, freezers empty.

Butchers near me has plenty. Does bread, pies and milk too.

Might be tempted by some venison later this week. Some red wine, shallots etc.

Every day we seem to be stepping up a notch in the NHS. Think we're expecting it to get very rough.
