if you need paracetamol try small local pharmacies as the chavs wont think to go there and they have good stocks

To be fair it's like sand paper and clearly everyone knows! You'd be better using literally anything else. Piece of old carpet, the shower curtain, a cat...

I'd like an inbetween answer on the poll tbh as it's good to be scared of any disease that can kill you, but obviously it shouldn't be being treated like it's an episode of TWD either with how chaotic our shops are at the moment.:joker:



But I am in support of making sure that the disease stops spreading so fast so I am in support of stopping huge public gatherings.

I'm in support of stopping public gatherings forever just cos I don't like crowds. Let's just not do it at all!

I know... other conditions still exist too :umm2:. I'm prone to the occasional, usually relatively mild, migraine so I should probably panic buy a stock of ibuprofen and paracetamol as we're running a bit low and it's missing from the shelves :fist:.

Might treat myself to a nice big multi-pack of co-codamol from the pharmacy :flutter:

I wouldn't say I'm worried. Apprehensive perhaps. We brought my grandmother up today from London, we think she'll be safer up here. Alex's travel plans have been interrupted and he's working from home. I am glad we live out in the sticks and not in the middle of London, though.
