I love Jakubclaret. Forget Captain Tom, Jakub is the real hero of this crisis.

It was by working out just how many people were keeling over, the threat was downplayed to avoid panicking the public & some people were reeled in & duped, anybody possessing a modicum of intelligence could see exactly what was happening. Yet you still think it's ok for folk to be breaking the lock...

The 1 & 2 camps at the end of the day results in the virus not spreading, make what you want from that as you no doubt will. It's not a case of being more important or selfish, some of the 2nd camp probably work on the front or have relatives who do, lots of people have also donated food, time & ef...

Now I'm torn. Who do I believe about people's attitude to climate change? A poll of actual people or Jakubclaret, who spends his days making a fool of himself on a football messageboard?

This trio need adding to the prick list :roll: UK day-trip trio in coastal cliff rescue Three people who travelled more than 100 miles (160km) in the UK for a day out sparked a major rescue operation after getting cut off by the tide.

A good reason exists why the general public aren't concerned about climate change, there could prioritise climate change thus guaranteeing putting all the eggs in 1 basket, the electorate as a general rule are more interested in other key issues essential to everyday living, soundbites preaching to...

I think the only change on Sunday will be that we will be allowed more than one daily exercise. That won't make any difference to me. I live in a fairly remote village, and I have two or three walks a day, without breaking any of the social distancing rules. The change will be good news, though, fo...

Surely of they abandon the season it has to be "as you were" with no promotion or relegation. They can't just make a rule up now on how final standings will be decided. Unless there is something written into the league rules about unfinished seasons but I'm sure if there was it would be common knowl...

He's no chance. Some bloke in a football messageboard has started a smear campaign based on him having no personality. He'll be gone by Christmas.

One wonders whether Wrongo (or indeed the government) would be taking this stance if our figures were more like Germany’s than Spain and Italy’s. I think we all know the answer to that.

Or if a party he didn't vote for was in government.

I'd be surprised if many chose that season as their first.

I went to my first game in October 1987 so missed the very worst and was there from the start of the slow climb back. Going to Wembley at the end of that season was a bonus.

"You need to do this over time. It will be months, perhaps even years, before we can really say who has the highest death toll." There speaks a voice or reason. Why the obsession about the highest?

I fitted one of those for my mother a couple of months ago and it has worked wonders. During the last heavy rain period, not a drop of water came in. Make sure you seal it fully and right to the ends.

It'll be done by 2023.

I started rebuilding a small wall in the garden that collapsed two years ago. I made some fine progress in the first week of lockdown but haven't revisited it since.

Not me....but I guess in many situations where something new emerges the default position is to not quite believe it.

Probably not but "not being squeaky clean" ranges from germ warfare to lying about their death rates and everywhere in between.

We left the EU at the end of January so yes you must have missed that!

Depends what the free agent hoped to gain by running their contract down. If their motivation was a big signing on fee in lieu of a transfer fee, then they may be disappointed. Likelihood is that the potential wages on offer three months ago will have dropped too.

Yeah but it's the Puma kit from 2 years ago. Surely if it was filmed recently they'd be in the current kit.

Not if they weren't subject to the relaxing.

Even if they were just following the current restrictions (essential shopping, daily exercise) they are more likely to come into contact with more people if restrictions were relaxed for others.

Not having a dig lowbank, I just wonder why deaths in care homes would alter any slight relaxing of the lockdown, say like Italy, where they are going to be allowed to visit family as long as distancing rules can still be applied. If that doesn't involve a care home, or anyone who visits a care hom...
