Came across this yesterday and I’ve sent it to everyone I know. Easy to understand and If it stops 1 person acting irresponsibly then it would have been worth it.

I have seen the photographs of Snowdonia, Pen-y-Fan, and Roath Park yesterday. Looks as if Wales has too many dummies to prevent this virus from getting completely out of hand.

My Mrs was in Spain just over a week ago and the Garda Civil moved her and her friend off a beach. The time has come for us to do the same to these selfish knob-ends

Donuts are the World over Steve.. went in the Butcher yesterday in Canton, he said he’s had to act like a bouncer as well. Fight nearly broke out over a shin of beef. Too many these days don’t give a f**k. Saying that, it’s still a minority.

Deffo a minority mate. My Mrs first day out of isolation today so she went up coop to get some food.
She go talking to an old gent who said to her that the present situation is worse than rationing etc. He then asked at the counter if they had any eggs to which the reply was no.
Great to see a bloke at front of queue saying to him “I haven’t got eggs mate but you’re welcome to have what you want out of my basket if it helps’.
He took a few things too and they had a bit of a laugh about it. Good on him too. She said the guy was only a youngster.

Something like this brings out both the best and the worst of people. Unfortunately, the biggest danger we now face is as a result of our own behaviour, and ultimately the death toll will be far higher than it needs to be simply because a percentage of the population will totally ignore the advice given. Keeping my fingers crossed that none of us on this forum have to pay for the ignorance of others. Stay safe folks and don't risk becoming another statistic.

Excellent video thanks for posting, I’ve pinged it round.

Nice one Jock.
I thought it was simple , not scaremongering, the dangers and the potential positives.

Shopping in Morrisons Newport Road this morning everything and everybody were very civilised. Nobody filled their trolley to excess and the shelves were very well stocked. Long may it continue.

That’s more like it. Good news and as you say, long may it continue.

The problem was never no toilet paper it was weird retards buying loads of it. Strange that when your unable to breathe your most pressing concern would be a clean Nat King. All about priorities I suppose.
