    Just take care Bonniecat, I have three Brothers and two sisters in Holland they where saying how hard it was getting, rest assured the UK will have to implement draconian measures before some of this lot understands the situation.

    I thought he said that the police will have powers to enforce it?

    Most foodstuffs are available, it’s the constant battle to get toilet rolls over here which is driving me nuts. Went to a different supermarket and none available. The more shops you keep having to go to the more risky it is.
    Also you can’t order anything on line as all the delivery slots well into April are full

    Yes I would imagine so. Thankfully I’ve got cats and they use the litter trays

    Yep he did say you could exercise, but only once a day and only with members of your household. Not sure how that can be enforced though.

    There will still be lots of brain dead morons wandering the streets tomorrow, and not enough police to do anything about it.

    Can anyone interpret whether this will effect a small fabrication shop employing 5?
    Cheers,Ken.

    Hopefully these things will be open for essential vehicles. Maybe be a bit of a drive away.

    The police/Army need to crack down hard on thugs causing problems on the street like we discussed earlier. Those animals can’t be allowed to just get off Scott free after giving that pensioner a black eye after coughing on her:mad:

    Friend of my wife’s has just messaged her saying there’s a traffic jam down her road queuing for drive through McDonald’s, seemingly they’re giving food away before closing down

    It's not a shop though, it's manufacturing.

    Agreed. A rifle butt in the gob would do the trick.
