    [Misc] Summer Holidays

    I think he’s being pretty optimistic tbh. I can’t see lockdown easing much earlier than the start of May, and then happening in a controlled and phased way. Hotels and holidays are unlikely to be among the first waves, frankly. Some point in June is more realistic. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Another sad death from coronavirus. Loved the Goodies as a kid.

    [News] The Coronavirus Good News thread

    Harvey Weinstein has recovered from Coronavirus. What the fück is this doing in the Good News thread, you may ask? Answer: Now he doesn't get to die, and thus avoid doing his time. He has to sit in a cell for the next 23 years, rather than the cop out of exiting within the first few weeks.

    How seriously are you taking social distancing?

    Genuine question: is this ok, or not? Our boys are 10 and almost 7. (They're with my wife back in the UK, I'm stuck in Dubai because of work). Though they have a back garden, it's pretty small and has a couple of trees and bushes in the middle – which make it virtually impossible to play any...

    Where are you getting your news from at the moment?

    You are of course completely free to do whatever you want - and to tell me to go do one and mind my own business - but in the spirit of genuine and well-intentioned advice, I’d suggest maybe weaning yourself off a little bit of that, if I was you? Staying informed about the situation is...

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    I wouldn’t place too much hope in that, tbh. The summer may - possibly - slow infection rates a fraction, but compared to measures like social distancing and isolation its impact will be fairly minimal I think. After all, it’s 29 degrees here in Dubai today, and nobody here is assuming the...

    China's reported coronavirus cases and deaths

    Wasn't there an incident at one point when the Chinese media briefly showed some figures that were HUGELY more than the 'official' data, but then this set was almost immediately replaced with another 'normal' low set? Swift denials at the time that there were two different sets in existence...

    [Football] Grealish

    Not following isolation to go to a mate's house and party – stupid, dumb and irresponsible. Especially coming hot on the heels of a preachy post telling everyone to do the exact opposite. He deserves a good public rollicking, and a fine from his club (that goes to charity) is good too. BUT…...

    how to pay for this (globally) when its all over

    I'd plump for outlawing the parasitical web of shell companies and offshore tax havens that only exists to help companies hide mind-boggling amounts of money that would otherwise be taxable, but, hey, that ain't gonna happen. So let's slaughter public services and tax the average person some more.
