iantjambo Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Just been to Tesco and everything felt so surreal. To be fair, the store is completely on the ball. Only letting so many in at a time, markings on the floor to ensure people are adhering to social distancing and the distinctive smell of disinfectant. Some old boy still had a paddy though because he was told to wait while the self service area cleared a bit. Auld tit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it though? We dont live in a world where he needs to be in contact with people he can do everything as he is now via video calls etc. The only difference is instead of self isolating with mild symptoms , he has been tested then told to say self isolating. Ie wasting a test that could have been used on someone more in need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also just checked with my employer and they have told me I still need to self isolate until they contact me. There's only so much Netflix that I can take. Already watched the entire Saw collection from my DVD rack (well 1-5) stopped watching when it got to 6 as it was getting as tedious as the Elm Street films. I've watched the '98 final again, which brought back many happy memories and have watched the team bus vids on YouTube. I have also watched the 2012 final match build up vids. You can can see how well prepared we were for that one. Now thinking about watching some football hooligan films, I have the Football Factory, Green Street The Firm (the Nick Love one) all to watch.
