Spottedlaurel Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Had a significant birthday yesterday. Local Japanese restaurant was open for takeaways and we needed a bit of milk etc so that gave me a reason for my longest drive in nearly three weeks (10-mile round trip!). '88 Sunny was the perfect choice. Booked a day off either side of this long Easter weekend so we could have a once-in-a-lifetime trip to New York with the kids. Clearly that didn't happen so I'm now having the longest, laziest period of doing nothing I can recall since I started work in 1986, and I've got the perfect excuse not to get involved with work on the house which would usually be the priority at this time of year.

Andyrew Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Okay, there's one perk to having to remain indoors , A Strong cheddar and raw onion sandwich. Its Been many a year since I last had one and it too requires isolation and distancing from others after consumption for at least 48hrs.

Fumbler Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Woke up this morning and the swelling on my hand is going down, plus the dull ache has disappeared.

It frees up a valuable bed for someone who contracted the illness through no fault of their own, rather than someone who: Went round purposefully shaking peoples hands long after the official advice was to do the exact opposite, and bragged about this on national TV Is responsible for the delayed response to initial cases, massively increasing the spread of the disease throughout the population, perhaps resulting directly in his own infection, and no doubt many tens of thousands of others. privatewire, catsinthewelder, New POD and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roobarb Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Laughable as only pride was hurt (and a little chod). Driving home from work on Friday night (med device company, so on skeleton staff), I came over the bridge onto the island I live on. Weirdly, just to my right as I came over the bridge, there is this huge explosion of water followed by a similarly huge tidal wave. Took me a second to realize that some guy in his car, came flying around the corner (30mph limit) and saw a stopped car in front of him, took to my side of the street, lost control and dropped into the lake! I pulled over to check the driver was okay. Ran over there to his now floating car. I could see him struggle with the door but I shouted not to open it and to wind the window down. ‘You okay?’ ’Shit! Shit, shit, shit!’ ’You okay...?’ ’Er... yeah, I think so’ ’You must have been hacking on there’ ‘Er, no... I think it was the summer tyres’ (Quick thinking there by Mr Amazed) At which point a boat that was in the bay started powering over to him. I turned around and left, snapping these quick pics on the way. I have to say, his troublesome ‘summer tyres’ probably have flat spots on them now! 30mph my arse!!!

My unit is on a big business park with shared waste. 80% of the units are offices and they chuck perfectly good gear away - I've had shelves and office chairs etc that just needed one bolt tightening or a new wheel etc. I wasn't really "going through them" but being a yorkshireman, if you see a nice new looking box right on the top of an industrial bin, you've got to have a quick peek.
