Emergency cheese - bollocks to the hand sanitiser, that's the next panic buy.

[eFestivals]

so Spaffer says, the NHS has "ample" resources to deal with this.

I think that might come back on him.

Re: the Pope. People from all over the globe make a pilgrimage to the Vatican when a Pope dies/ a new Pope is chosen. Italy will probably impose bans on pilgrims travelling from overseas, but the faithful are pretty hard to stop when they're full of, well, faith.

I don't think there'll be drastic world consequences however..

Doesn’t help when everyone kisses his ring.

i have been washing my hands with cheese for a fortnight... Wife is none too pleased but the dog follows me everywhere..

Out of upvotes for @Minillabut kudos for that post.... the restraint in reading 70 pages of utter bollocks before thinking 'maybe my view is relevant...?' is remarkable.! but might i suggest you contribute to some other threads to take your mind off things.? I for one am keen to know what your Glastonbury Covers List Challenge looks like...

Anyone else that didn't spend the fiver on 'ticket insurance' feeling a bit worried ?

That bits a scam, it says if your ill and can’t make it due to things out of your control that’s not the event being cancelled. Tbf with gigs it’s a scam as you can always sell them without paying the fiver but with Glasto if you were ill, you would lose over £260.

Great input from @Minilla. A poignant first hand report. There will be quite a lot of people out there who have never experienced the outbreak of a major epidemic but for those of us who were around for foot and mouth, corona feels much like that. First a single reported infection, then a few more. Then suddenly after a week or two, the number of infections jumps daily. For all of us I sincerely hope is it a path that is  not repeated. More so because Mrs Lycra is a front line respiratory nurse.

I was raised catholic. I find this post deeply offensive and demand it is removed and Ayrshire Chris ostracised till the end of time.

We need the poster drop ASAP! Hopefully when that happens our attention will be drawn to that and this thread will be relegated down the pages to below the ‘what stage will Elbow be on’ thread! 

Oops sorry @whitehorses, confessional for me!

Wonder how much spite would come into a government decision to cancel glastonbury, (see their plans for the bbc)
