I just went to the supermarket and got the LAST pack of crumpets. I picked up a couple of packs of muffins and some hot cross buns so I should be OK, but the lack of crumpets was extremely distressing.
Fuck what have we done.
Do not despair.
Check with Jegga what Jerome was eating when they had breakfast in Wellington - crumpets or muffins (it couldn't have been hot cross buns because they were out of their harvest season at the time).
Muffins may well be more fashionable after all.

Is it next Saturday? 8 days away? I reckon the decision will probably get taken out of your hands anyway.
My 2 cents is to assume that already and save yourself the agony, but I have no money or emotional investment in this like you do.
A lot of people won't come, and it won't be very festive.
Yeah 8 days. I suspect you are correct. We are chatting with a doctor friend of ours this afternoon, and taking her advice on what to do.

Why is Gordon Ramsey telling Shane Thomson to get out?
To find this joke funny, you need to be a big enough cricket nerd to know what Shane Thomson's Cricinfo profile pic looks like ......
You have my sympathies.

California going into lockdown from tonight, be interesting to see how that unfolds. All those wealthy people being told what to do.
Not to mention the vast vast hordes of homeless.
Do they lock down in their tents\bridges?

@Stockcar86 I think I read a test was coming that would tell you if you had immunity from exposure. I assume once that comes you might get issued with some sort of ID that says you are immune. People with those could then I assume go back into public. We will wait and see.

I hope you could get a certificate stating you've had it, and then you are allowed to roam free.

@voodoo And how do you put an economic value on life?
Actually “value of life” is a well established economic concept. I’ll cut through the crap and tell you it’s generally about USD 7m. Of course, just like everybody else, mine is much more.

The virus finally speaks out.

And as a bizarre coincidence, today I had a crumpet topped with smoked mackerel and grilled cheddar with a little piccalilli. Absolutely feckin gorgeous. The glass or two of carignan with it was tops too.
Sooo...grilled cheddar...you grill cheese separately to put it on the crumpet?

This is why we are fucked.
"About 2,700 passengers who disembarked a cruise ship in Sydney (19/3) have been told to self-isolate after three people who were onboard tested positive for Covid-19."So hear this out, you have people who were sick with flu like symptoms, the on board doctor thinks, I better test these people just in case. They dock in Sydney and all 2700 leave the ship. Surprise surprise the tests come back with 3 confirmed cases.
The ship released a statement saying its all good, those showing flu symptoms were isolated so little risk of transfer.
Do these fucken retards not release there are likely people without symptoms spreading it around.
They are now trying to contact all the people from the ship reminding them they should be self isolating anyway but best do it now.
