Sense of smell and taste still almost totally away. This is becoming a serious cause for concern.

ICTJohnboy Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) Good to note that both Sky and BBC now have reporters in position at the gates of Balmoral. Presumably they are regarded as essential key workers, who have to be stationed at these gates, in the unlikely event of someone coming out to update them on Chucky's condition. Meanwhile the nation awaits, simply agog at this exciting/devastating news. Edited March 25, 2020 by ICTJohnboy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn’t my interpretation nor do I think it is the wider interpretation of employers. Is this why so many companies have kept open, as they believed the 80% subsidy was for every worker? That would be ridiculous if an employer believed that was the case. It's to allow companies to close / reduce the number of staff actively working and retain staff by not having to pay their salaries out of their own cash reserves, whilst ensuring the employee has a job to come back to once restrictions are lifted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We keep some deliveries back and are cleared by 8am . Having to put barriers up etc to stop humans being c***s. We are meant to be on lockdown... Loads of the people getting deliveries will be young, healthy and quite able to do their own shopping. A Tesco guy said that delivering groceries to the house was the most inefficient way of distributing them, it's beyond their capacity to do it for more than 10% of their customers. That's what I mean about rationing, that 10% should be the people who need it most. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furious on your & your missus behalfPiece on bbc news about the russian and indian response, every cop and doctor/nurse in ppe including masks. Anyway, both still working like f**k. I hate the ‘lets have a meeting about having a meeting’ pish that happens in UK public sector, just get stuff done. In times like these the lets discuss everything to the nth degree has to at a certain extent get pushed aside and leaders make decisions based on the best evidence at the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further confirmation that if the day ends in a ‘y’ then retail staff will be blaming their customers rather than their useless management or crap business model for making a royal c**t of it again. The craven company loyalty is strong in this sector. Edited March 25, 2020 by vikingTON -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile the nation awaits, simply agog at this exciting/devastating news. I did wonder the other night if there was any need for the amount of reporters out on the streets. There was one of them standing in a shop car park going up to customers asking them if what they were getting from the shop was essential. I was hoping one of them would ask in return if her approaching members of the public to ask those sorts of questions was regarded as “essential”. Sadly no one had the baws to say it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am aware Tesco has zero slots for delivery or uplift in next 3 weeks fine. However having booked a slot 2 weeks ago for a delivery last night. A sensible list mind. No arseholeness. Tesco turns up with less than a 3rd of the items ordered. Now considering every item on the list would have been in stock in the last day or 2 it shows the shambles. Clearly anyone with a 10pm delivery booked (mine was earlier) will get their shopping packed at 8pm that night when fuckall is in stock. Not sure what the motto of the story is but in theory now I have had a home delivery I would rather have cancelled.

D.A.F.C Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Supermarket management should have know after the beast from the east and xmas rush that people are selfish morons and panic buying will happen.Unfortunately they are set up to run like theres no problems and run like clockwork with just in time delivery. The fuckwits buying a months worth of stuff have ruined it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I'm trying to make is that merely criticising the hygiene and actions of groups of Chinese people does not make you a racist. There are people from many countries being criticised on here. There are many news articles like the ones I quoted previously doing just that. I was hoping the people calling me a racist would have the balls to comment on the articles. They haven't because the know they are wrong. To call someone a racist and then run off when asked to prove their point is the behaviour of very low class people. To use the word racist as a weapon is disgusting. Everything that is said on here is stored and so can be read back and quoted. I have asked a few time for me to be quoted being a racist. And yet there has been no quotes. So just to finalise, I am in fact not a racist. This is an anonymous forum so if I wanted to say racist things what would be stopping me? I have said nothing racist, if you think I have please prove your point. And finally Marshmallo specificly is a scum bag. The wet markets are abhorrent, criticising them isn't racist. Instead you were advocating boycotting anything Chinese and declaring every single Chinese person as being filthy, tucking into bat and anything else they get their hands on. This is where things get muddled and interpretation becomes fact. Please quote me where I have said that, as I asked for. Do not just invent something you think I said. First part, you actually agree with me -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Prince Charles and Camilla will be following governmental advice and isolating separately. It's not a huge house but certainly big enough to isolate yourself within it. Like in relation to what ?? Your average 2 or 3 bedroom semi ?? Honestly, this country really is pathetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
