If they get stranded f**k them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 It's at least 30 pages for me to catch up with whenever I log on, and probably as many while I'm reading over the day. I've read all of it. I've considered a Top Five Worst Posters in the Coronavirus threads but not had the balls to follow through with it.Mon then, before we all die 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 When folk are saying ‘no toilet roll yet, no milk, no whatever’, it’s not what I’m experiencing. I’m not saying this in a ‘ha ha, GIRUY’ way, just in a factual way. Like everyone, my local area suffered the panic buying of a few specific items maybe starting a fortnight ago, but now? Everywhere I’ve been in and around Cumbernauld is fine. In fact, the queuing, the ‘one-in, one-out’, and so on, is helping everything run smoothly and quietly. Genuinely, why are other areas still suffering such shortages? Is there a specific reason? We’re not that big a country, there shouldn’t be a huge difference between the situations in Cumbernauld,, Stirling, Ayr, Paisley, Largs.... should there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s part of the reason they’re fucked, because they’re idiots. It wasn't to holiday. Loads of poorer southern Italians work in the north and didn't want to get locked down away from home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Rider Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 We have found the local corner shops well stocked with bog roll, bread, milk, bevvy and sweets. Tins of tomatoes and stock cubes too. It’s worth shopping local. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly the majority of P&B think i'm tuned to the moon. That's fine I accept that. This, however, is a poor example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 (edited) When I was out for a walk earlier those few people we passed were all avoiding each other, but saw two guys in their 20s leaning over the hood of a car to have a chat. It’s knobheads like these who are potentially fucking it up for everyone else. Edited March 27, 2020 by Granny Danger 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why your bath will not noticeably change temperature the instant you stop the hot water tap. Yes, I get that. But this reduction won't be instant.

Make this day 1 of 7 for her and of 14 for me. What are P&B’s thoughts on getting takeaways at this time? Worthwhile to ensure the food you have in lasts a bit longer without requiring someone else to go to a shop themselves to pick up more for you (provided you’re pre-paying by card obviously) or selfish to make restaurant staff and delivery drivers continue to work and put themselves at risk when they don’t have to be considered essential despite providing food? I really fancy a takeaway but I'm running low on toilet roll so I'm not going to risk it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
