Stay Alert = Get it and spread it. That what Cummings really wants to say.

And what is this ridiculous fixation with xxxx Garden Centres?

When I imagined the apocalypse, I never envisaged that Garden Centres would be the focal point for rebuilding civilisation.

We hear that the first Nicola Sturgeon knew of the slogan change was in the Sunday papers and that the Welsh First Minister has no idea what Boris will announce.... utterly, utterly appalling by Westminster again. The way they treat the devolved nations is unbelievable. ‘Stay Alert’ is a vacuous phrase aimed squarely at WWII obsessed daily mail curtain-twitchers.

Coupled with the ongoing farce over testing this idiot government are taking the British people for fools. Still at least garden centres are going to open.

Don't forget Nor'n Iron too. The fat useless lying buffoon claims they were all consulted, but there's not a Woman or a Taff for that matter in charge of the Devolved Governments that agree with him. Despite the Tory (toe)Rags leaking the "news" like a sieve all weekend and beyond, I know who I believe. He really can't help himself can he?

'We will be lead by the science.' wtf? When?

The same science that told Canada to insist folk flying into the country had to self-isolate for 14 days over 2 months ago? The same science that the fat useless arsehole says we'll implement soon, er, sometime, er well after the kids have gone back to school. Maybe. Additionally it was all recorded, as he doesn't really do live interviews does he?

He's a pathological liar and he can't help himself. It's every time his lips move, he really can't help it can he? They should have kept him in the hospital and transferred him to the Psychiatric Wards, put him in a straight jacket and kept him there, forever.

Even more vague bullshit made up on the hoof today. Wear a mask or face covering if you go into some shops where you can't maintain 2 metres. Some shops? Most supermarket aisles aren't 2 metres wide. You have to queue in the aisles to get to the checkouts while folk come past getting their shopping. Either tell us to wear one or feck off.

On top of that by this time next week the fat useless twat might have cost me my job, and it's going to be a real joy finding a new one. I won't be the only one. What's the rate of pay down on the fruit and veg farms these days? Not that there's many in Wolvo, maybe a few in Shropshire? Do they still pick you up in a 'tater truck on the street corner each morning?

Just for a bit of levity in this situation:

You'll like this video summary of Johnson's announcement Theo - says it all and to think his speech was a recording too!

Throw in golf courses as well Jim!. What is the "big deal" re opening golf courses? Has Trump managed to "bend" Johnson's ear in some way lol!? Ohhh, I forgot the President has his golf courses in Scotland and they aint opening up for business anytime soon!

Personally I don't see an issue with golf courses being open. I live next to one here that opened this weekend and they insist on everyone either walking or using their own cart, the 19th hole is of course closed and everyone is instructed to stay within 6ft of each other. To me this is one place where social distancing can absolutely be practised by all!!

This video by Matt Lucas is spot on!!!

Gardening and Golf are both good for physical and mental health and you can do them while practising social distancing. What's to dislike?

Pretty much sums it up 0762, just as intelligible and certainly as clear anything Blojob ever comes out with. Thumb up

As for golf - with most peoples standard of play it's almost impossible to get within 2 metres of each other, unless you share a golf cart, which under current guidelines you can't unless you're in the same family. If you stand within 2 metres while someone is swinging a club you deserve your place in A&E, and hardly anyone ends up closer than that on the green. Even if your balls are closer you don't stand that close while the first one has his first attempt of many to hole the bloody thing. The pro's might get nearer to each other, but us hackers certainly don't.

Thankfully I don't believe in all that religious mumbo-jumbo, but each to their own.
