The only positive is to the environment due to reduction in plane and car travel and factories closed down in China. Some interesting charts out there showing massive reduction in pollution levels just in the space of a few weeks.
Another positive is I won’t be bumping into Warfey any time soon.😂

I've got 6 books I've been meaning to read. Plus probably 30 films on my Sky planner and various records and CDs that I've never listened to that I will now get around to consuming.

Save the books for last, you’ll need them when the electricity goes off

I'm tempted to fantasise that I might spend a lot less time on BB but, knowing our club, things might be getting even more interesting.

Here's one to relieve the boredom. Who out of Maddison, Cantwell, Grealish, will turn out to be the best player? This was a golf course debate last week. All similar creative potential but my money is on Cantwell, him in my opinion being the best defensively - but perhaps the least likely to end up at Old Trafford.

Apparently the reduction in flights and industrial output is doing some good for the environment.

And from a personal point of view, apparently the train operating companies are struggling due to the reduction in passengers - given I use one daily that has been threatened with losing its franchise as they are so rubbish, it feels a bit like Karma....

A sad moment last night as we got off the coach at the Proact, was some fans were saying goodbye and hope to see each other sometime soon. Its a
horrible situation throughout the world, but on the football front it means no football means that I will miss many good acquaintances I only see at the match. Its worrying thinking that I may never see some if any again if things get worse. I love my football fix, however people's well being is much more important and I have faith they we'll all be ok. Sorry for sounding such a miserable *** and I wish everyone all the very best of health in the future.

Before this flippant reply may I say both myself and the wife have parents who fall into the at risk bracket and I'm sure we face a few weeks, months etc of real upheaval, but I genuinely feel that this we all be fine by the autumn. If not then all we can do is struggle on. But of course the Chinese etc will still keep crates of puppies, on top of cages of kittens, below tanks of snakes, at the side of buckets of cray fish, adjacent to packets of Pangolin scales, stacked with powdered Rhino horn, then select whatever the customer wants, kill it, gut it, then sling the intestines into the gutter for the local wildlife to eat, before they are captured and put into the cages, then everything s4..1ts and p15535' on each other then once slaughtered again is thrown into a filthy pot and all cooked up together and ate with added faecal matter.
Will they be closed down? Nah.

I've struggled with breathing difficulties since November time and was really badly on/around voting day but put it down to chemistry at work. Now that maybe the case but thinking about it me and 5/6 other people I know (including parents) have been poorly with similar symptoms. After reading that other people on socials have been badly over the last 3 months, is it possible much of the country have already had the virus?

Today is the best I've felt since October.
Here we go again!

Their treatment of animals is a total disgrace, almost inhuman in their callous indifference. They have taken tourists including children to watch a cow dumped off a tipper truck to be eaten alive by a tiger. Sick f u c ks.

I see the Trump Administration is trying to buy a German company developing a Coranavirus Vaccine so they can patent it for exlusive use in the States.

And it is suggested they are trying to do this with other manufacturers.

Doesn't bode well for a post Virus world
