Good to post that Rigger, really does bring it home what some people are going through.

Interesting the mention of the number of countries going through it.
Something I argued with a denier a few months back who was screaming is a government plan.
Just asked if he knew it was not just our country or if he really believed the Americans would work with the Iranians, the Israelis with the Arabs, the North Koreans with the South Koreans, etc.
He didn't answer.

I will do, John. Thank you very much.
He's a very popular guy and has been indundated with offers - and actual - support since posting his original "it's got me, any food parcels would be gratefully received" message.
I'm sure he'll be fine as he's already come on leaps and bounds in the last week :)

Just phoned a mate I used to work with when I worked in London. Known him for nearly 40 years. He told me that he and his wife have had Covid19. They caught it from his mother who they spent a couple of hours with on Christmas Day. She caught it from one of her carer's. He said they were all poorly for about 10 days but came through relatively OK. His mother will be 100 next month!!! Must be the oldest recorded survivor?
