I live in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China.
The city has been "locked down" for 3 months now.
Apparently the restrictions were lifted 8th April , but....
I need a medical certificate to leave the community where I live but....I'm still not allowed out to get one from the hospital....catch 22 !

I only met Enzo when collecting food from his shop on Colne Rd.
I truly nice man, kind and a great character.
And, I don't mean to be flippant....fantastic food !

I can comment without fear of being arrested, I find it strange that you should ask that question ? I have been kept updated, daily, of the situation. The data released was correct at the time of release. Perhaps some people don't understand that there is an an "incubation period" and so cases have ...

I live in Wuhan. I posted a message on the ClaretsMad board last December just alerting people of the potential risks if allowed to travel here. I was ridiculed, "it's only a f*****g cold/flu".
Oh well, I did try....

I am amazed at the UK Government ignorant approach regarding COVID-19. I live in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, where the pandemic, allegedly, originated. The situation has been dealt with very efficiently. The whole Province was placed on immediate "Lockdown" on December 23rd....everywhere closed, a...

I live in Wuhan, China. I teach English.
The whole city is on "Lockdown" all schools are closed as is everywhere else, shops etc.
We are not even allowed to leave our apartments.
So, no, I'm not working at the moment, but possibly I will be allowed to continue after 8th April.

I live in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.
I can assure you that the current CONVID-19 pandemic is far, far worse than an outbreak of flu.

I live in Hongshan District, Wuhan, China where the COVID-19 outbreak began. As soon as the virus was dicovered the whole city was placed under "Lockdown". I've been confined to my apartment since December 23rd. No transport, cars, busses, etc. are allowed into the city, the train stations and tubew...

I live in Hongshan District, Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. At the moment we are under "complete lockdown", since December 21st 2019. No people are allowed to leave the community that they live in. We are allowed to order snacks, sandwichess etc., online, that are then delivered to the main gates. Bu...

Yes, the situation has improved here in Wuhan, Hubei Province. The "Lock down" appears to be working. In fact it's being reported that Wuhan is now the safest place ! I do think that you will need luck as I cannot imagine people in the UK or Europe abiding to a "Lock down" for long....until people s...

I live in Hongshan District, Wuhan, Hubei Province, China....where the Coronavirus / COVID-19 alledgedly began. I can assure you that the situation is very serious. Hubei Province amongst others is "Locked down"....the srteets/roads are deserted, completely. As for the face masks, I am forbidden to ...

"the UK economy is strong, most people are in work and most people have disposable income"
Really ? The situation must have changed since I was last in England, 3 months ago.
When you claim most people are working, do you mean places like "BoHoo" ?

Any Claret fans in China ?

What caused the "Ice Age" ? I'm confident it wasn't humans.

If a "life sentence" meant living the rest of your life, in solitude, in a tiny cell, never being allowed out at all, then, I imagine that The Death Penalty would be preferable.

I live in Wuhan, China.
Outside the apartment block there are 4, somtimes 5 large recycle bins. In additiondome old prople knock on my door asking for any waste materials.
The difference is that peoplr get paid for recycling, especialy metal, cardboard and plastic.

"I don’t want anything too massive, you know the ones all the proles spend their benefits on whilst living off beans and fags".
I'm a "berk" ?
Don't worry, I will not reply to any posts from now on.....

"I don’t want anything too massive, you know the ones all the proles spend their benefits on whilst living off beans and fags, but other than that I’m pretty open minded". What is a "prole" ? And...I assume you have never had the misfortune of being out of work and having to claim benefits ? The mor...

120 THOUSAND POUNDS PER WEEK !!!! Really ? I find that obscene, if true. I wonder what is the average weekly wage of people who go to watch a football game at Turf Moor ?

"99% of teachers are commis and don't have a clue about life, they have gone from school to university and back to school, clueless gimps the lot of em". I teach English in China, I have done so for 11 years. I did not go to University, I studied for my TEFL qualification, funded by myself. I will s...

The real country to watch out for will be the Chinese! With almost 2 billion people there are bound to be a significant number of skilful players waiting to be discovered should they ever really get themselves organised.[/quote] I live and teach 6 - 7 year old children in Wuxi, China There are 700 c...

I do not understand how such a dreadful incident can happen. When you consider the security checks at airports. When I returned to China, in September, my laptop was confiscated because it would not turn on (the battery was expired) I had to display all my hand luggage contents on a table at securit...

I returned to Burnley, briefly, this year and was walking along Casterton Ave., smoking a cigarette, which I disposed of in a roadside grate. All of sudden I was pounced upon by "someone" wearing a body cam and accused of "littering" and fined. I refuted this and appealed. I was told that "there is ...

If VAR is needed then why have a ref. on the pitch ? I really do not understand.

Indeed I do! I have been in Japan since 2006 (geez!!!). Wuhan is the epicentre of Chinese mysticism and martial arts, isn`t it? It may well be, but to be honest, I have no idea :oops: I've only been here for 3 weeks, teaching everyday. Today is my first day of "rest"....I will be/am planning next w...

May I ask if you actually live and work in Hiroshima ?
I only ask because I live in Wuhan, China and I am curious if there are any other "exiled clarets"

I am so very happy that I left England / U.K. / Europe....whatever it's called now !

English teacher in China, for the last 13 years.
A wonderful although challenging job

Don't give up !!
I was told that I have / had a brain tumor 5 years ago and probably only had a year to live....I'm still here.
The person who can help you most is YOURSELF.....
Remain positive.
