Just because I don't have the need to join in with the doomsday scenario or, like the brammer you're replying to, see this as a chance to dig around for reasons to criticise the government, means my behaviour is dick-ish.
I've stuck to the facts, not joined in with the wild numbers LPM has been throwing around for weeks.
It's a bad enough situation for plenty of people without others trying to paint it much worse.
I'm comfortable with my points.

Sneaked out the house early morning to catch the Supporters Bus in Paisley for the trip to Notts County for the Anglo Scottish Cup.
I did leave a note for my parents.
Got home early next morning. My dad, being a Buddie wasn't bothered. My mum was furious and made me go to school with next to no sleep.
Never seen Oaky at the match.

I actually been using the independence Toyota garage in Helensburgh for my services and MOT for a lot of years now.
Always get a good discount and service.
No chance I am giving my car to any Arnold Clark garage, specifically Linwood

Football highlights have been broadcast since the 1950's , I'm guessing via Scotsport, Sportsreel and latterly Sportscene.
What Saints highlighted matches would you like to see again ?
Up until the 1980's they were very few provincial club matches broadcast as the Telly dudes concentrated on the two sectarian clubs almost every week.
Once we were in the 1990's there was stacks of coverage even in Division One with the great Football First.
I have managed to remember three where the highlights were broadcast on a Saturday night and would love to see full highlights again.
29/4/72 Dumbarton 1 St Mirren 2 Promotion battle.
29/1/77 St Mirren 4 Dundee Unitit 1 Scottish Cup
26/2/77 Motherwell v St Mirren Scottish Cup ( would love to see the whole match just to see that first half again )
What would everybody else like to see again ? Surely the TV Companies must still have these highlights from through the decades. Get them all on a Website and let
us see them again.

Your right. The demand for laptops is high, for government bodies and people working from home.
I work in facilities, in buildings that is churning out new and recycled PC's. Thinking initially it would dry up. Know there's big demand from other European countries governments.
We also have a big MOD data centre to maintain. Would rather self isolate, but company at present won't let us.

I work in maintenance for the water industry. We talk about "essential services" but let's not forget we can't do our jobs if we can't purchase the parts to repair the pumps and filters that keep the water pure and the sewage system functioning. Thank goodness we have had word from some suppliers saying they will be open for business with stringent rules in place to protect us and their staff. The numbers of people who could be classed as essential is far more than some might think initially.

Another feature of this crisis is that those whose jobs and pay are unaffected by the crisis are those who are most vocal about shutting down everyone else.

The latest strict measures on keeping employees safe at my work this morning- got given 1 pair of latex gloves.
I'm feeling so much safer now.

A big feature I’ve noticed about the crisis is folk who are out and about complaining about other folk being out and about -

Each lockdown is specific to the area it affects
Wuhan is a massive and congested city compared to London
and don’t forget that the areas where Covid 19 propagated from are very dirty wet markets that will be a nightmares to clean
every area will have it’s own tale to tell on how effective it’s lockdown has been and over what time period

I will be back at work on Thursday all being well. I'll only be attending sites to perform any critical work so I don't know how that will pan out. It might actually disrupt my normal working hours to keep things going. Given what the real emergency services are going through I won't be complaining about that.Most of the time I'll be on my own and well away from any interaction.
