I used to listen to The Radio in the Car. Robert Elms on BBC Radio London. No longer have a car and seldom listen to the Radio. Only live Football if Millwall are featured. Foxy

I was only thinking about this earlier today and If/When it was likely to happen. Foxy

In reality the most dangerous place to 'Catch' The Corona Virus is Sainsburys early morning. The Time when the Elderly and most Vulnerable are being invited to go along. The time when most people are about in the store. People must be a greater risk there than sitting alone in the corner of the pub or Cafe.

My sentiment entirely.. Card usage is the cause of overspending especially with young people. Young people buying repeat rounds of shots in pubs tapping their card. Eight Sambucas YAAYY ?40.00 The Pubs Love it. If they were asked to pay ?40.00 cash they would think twice because they do not have the money. All their cards are Maxed out and they are just paying interest at high % rates and cannot clear their cards. DulwichFox

Why do you say its really bad. ?? #FFS People should NOT be going to these places. The Corona Virus situation is whats bad . I need to get out of the house and exercise and get some fresh air. Why do you always take things people post here the wrong way. I went for a Brain scan today. It was orig. cancelled but my situation is so serious that they were forced to see me. Corona Virus is the least of my concerns at the moment. The Hospital agreed my situation is serious and a possible brain tumour would be life threatening. Also having High blood pressure. Asthma and Problems with my Pancreas and possible liver. Also loosing my eye sight due to Vit b12 deficiency, I have been on a course of injections. You thought I was Ill. Yes I am. Seriously ill. I have virtually stopped drinking alcohol. But now I can't even go to the pub, have a chat and a couple of alcohol Free beers. #FFS I do not see or speak to anyone day in day out. I was looking forward to seeing my Doctor tomorrow but it's been cancelled and a Telephone appointment is to be be arranged. I'm sorry you have been unwell and hope you are feeling better. Just give me a break Foxy

20.30 - 21.00 Just had a wander around North Cross / Lordship Lane. It's absolutely Dead. Thai Corner Cafe. Empty no one in. Monkatsu Empty no one in. Palmerston. 6 people ? Hisar Turkish. Not a sole. completely empty. Hisar Mangal 4 people Bishop Few in. Not Busy. Memsaab Couple of people MEAT Liquor Busy not full EDT 10 -15 ish did not go in. Really bad. No one about on the street. Foxy

Was out on Lordship Lane at 12.00 and 13.30 today. No evidence of people boycotting local Pubs. A few People sitting in EDT at 12.10 and a few more again 13.30 I may assess the situation later tonight by going out for a walk and getting a Take_Away. No intention of venturing into any pub. Pub probably quiet due to no football. DulwichFox

Sainsbury's management are continuing to Milk it for as much profit as possible. It's criminal.

NEW SOCIAL distancing advice means weddings are now being restricted to just five people. The Church of England is recommending ceremonies should be limited to the legal minimum of five people: The priest, The bride, The groom and two witnesses. https://www.heraldseries.co.uk/news/18319258.weddings-restricted-just-five-people/ DulwichFox

Lots of shops on Lordship lane displaying signs. Cards Only (no Cash) ??? DulwichFof

Thursday 19th 13.30. Co-op No Veg at all Nothing. M&S now the same. Empty Shelves. Nothing left What is happening is on the same level as Looting.

So its not even human food affected. It is just crazy. That's what great about this country. The People. Not able or allowed to use their discretion. I'm Foxed ??

Have not noticed any bare shelves in M&S on Lordship lane. Seems fully stocked. Foxy

All Schools will now close from Monday This will affect 1.45 million children.

Great Idea .. or restrict to 30 minutes with no return on same day. ?100 fine if you over stay.

Just returned from Sainsburys DKH 12.00 Just bare shelves. Virtually NO fresh Vegetables. NO tinned food. Not even a can of beans. Frozen cabinets empty. I managed to buy the last pack of 4 Chicken Burgers and the last pack of 10 Satay chicken skewers. No frozen Veg. Not even a pack of Peas. No Toilet Rolls or Kitchen Towels. Evidently at 07.00am this morning there were over 100 people queuing and they were allowed like Locusts to strip the shelves bare with NO restrictions. Sainsburys are milking it.. Their manager if they have one on site needs to be sacked. Absolute disgrace. DulwichFox.

If the Government were that concerned about people going to the Pub they would make pubs close. But they make Millions from Duty and VAT on alcohol sales Like if they were concerned about Tobacco they would ban it. But they make Millions from Duty and VAT on Tobacco sales and if they were concerned about pollution from cars in central London they would ban cars from the area. But they make Millions from Duty and VAT on petrol sales and the Congestion Charge and The ULEZ charges.. I did go to the EDT to find out the current situation. The EDT was quieter than usual but has NO intention at this time to be closing its doors. Most of the Restaurants seemed empty. 21.00 Foxy.

Ok lots of roads affected but many now saying fixed. My water on Ulverscroft just gone off 23.30 ish. Whateley Rd end Thames Water on site earlier. North Cross rd end. now left. But NOT fixed

I am not saying for one minute I agree with what this person is saying. I have Never heard of Cecilia Bartholomew. I still haven't bothered to find out who she is. That's why I added "Is this for Real" I'm off to the EDT.... after Corrie and Deadenders.. see yer there .

Twitter Cecilia Bartholomew From now on you leave your homes at your own peril- If you do not have govt permission to be outdoors you must stay in your houses. The govt may arrest and detain you if you disobey these new laws! #coronavirus #coronavirusoutbreak Is this for real.. ??

All pubs clubs cafes restaurants theatres etc are to close down from tonight in uk. No social contacts are allowed in uk from tonight, by law ! #coronavirus #coronavirusoutbreak From Midnight tonight. ?? Conflicting news from the BBC now saying pubs NOT Forced to close but people should avoid.

There was this other dodgy looking scruffy bearded geezer. I do not think he was a Deliveroo Cyclist but was posing as the leader of a Major Political Party. Soon got sussed out though.
