      I see that both Dyson and Gtech have stepped forward to help with the supply of ventilators - probably saving lives in the process. Both home grown companies. I for one won't be forgetting how they have responded when this is all over.

            I usually use the carwash, but was even thinking of doing it myself yesterday.
            Thankfully it was only a mad moment which has now passed.:biggrin:

              Yorkshire Police are going to introduce Check Points to ask people if their journey is necessary or not according to their Chief Constable

                Not only Yorkshire Police:

                "Now police are making it clear that exercise has to be done from your home - you are not allowed to drive to another location to either exercise or walk your dog.

                Avon and Somerset Police have been handing out information after stopping drivers at popular dog-walking spots."

                  Did I miss a bulletin? When was the extra restriction on exercise brought in?

                  I've just been to the garage and although I have the car washing bucket... I have apparently thrown out out the sponge, shampoo, wax and chamois...

                      It was already in place, we were told to drive only if it's essential or work (if you cannot work from home). Yesterday I noticed a neighbour putting his dog in the back of the car, the park is less than 5 minutes walk away !

                        Surely its not the driving part that is the problem, its staying clear of others when you get there.

                        Sounds like plod are just flexing their new muscles.

                          I'm guessing the Dyson ones will be shipped from the Far East, since he moved his lot out that way some time ago.;)

                              Skips and Portaloos being removed from construction sites, entrances being made more secure (even including showhome behind hoarding). They must be anticipating a long delay.

                                I must say in these parts the penny seems to be finally dropping and folks are taking heed...
