Don't panic !
 

Covid -19 coming to a person near you soon!

Splice the Main Brace! Covid 19 hates Alcohol!

Just run around in small circles shouting "Don't panic" - We'll be fine.
Went to Sainsbury's this morning, just same numbers of people as normal, but the piled up trollies were a sight to behold, just like the week before Christmas.

People stockpiling Brussel Sprouts?

Combination of Corporal Jones ('don't panic') and Private Fraser ('we're doomed') from Dad's Army.

Think of the poor bastards in the lifeboats, the holocaust at Auschwitz et al and the millions queuing for non-existent food and and it will not seem to be a problem at all.

Something like that, they just had to substitute Easter eggs for tins of quality street.

Sorry but I've cracked it ...... :p

Go and try buying some Hand sanitiser, and next week try paracetamol....... shelves will be empty

you heard it here first!

Virus's are a bit like Paxman's; one bloody thing after another.

Breaking news ....

Half the girls in the UK have VD while the other half have Coronavirus so only sleep with the ones who cough. :thumb: This has been a public service announcement :paper:

served your time on Paxman's I presume.. :chuckle:

Have extensive experience of Paxmans. As an engine they are totally intolerant of bodgers but in fairness to them I've sailed with worse. Much worse. Is it any wonder I'm oul and cranky.

Don't play the 'old soldier' with us. You only had one Rolls Royce you admit to and your steamers would only have used a Paxman when you ran out of hot fog. As for old and cranky? It goes with the class one's command endorsement.

Was n Costco today and did not believe the people were loading their cars with toilet paper etc.
Expecting to crap a lot in fear of the virus or what ???

Tescos here this week were rationing Paracetamol to one packet per person. I'll see for myself more generally on Sunday - if anything is left! We have panic buying every time there is a high wind or the Ben My Chree breaks down.

Tomorrow I'll go to the 'Wine Seller'. I'm quite often in a panic to buy from there!

Did Flybe serve the IOM? Will another carrier pick up the slack?
I used them regularly on the Dublin/Southampton and Dublin/London Southend routes and found them very satisfactory.

There's a fair amount of consternation here in the West Country about Flybe. The railway service is close to non-existent once you're off the south coast, the roads now bear a strong resemblance to the surface of the Moon and if you see a bus, it's reported as a Martian Tripod Machine they're so rare.

When I was a kid visiting Co. Limerick where my old dear originated I used to travel up and down from Doon in a pony and trap. Could be I'll end up in one again the way things are going.

:very_sad:

Indeed. They were known as Fly-may-be. They did not serve free gin therefore I have never flown with them. BA (sometime Eastern now, I think, Logan for and on behalf of) to London City plus a modest glass. Unfortunately subsidised by the on-line gambling scam we are running in lieu of a sovereign wealth fund.

That's it ..... now I am going to panic !!!! :eek:

Coronavirus gives you pointy ears ... :egg:

The good folk of Weymouth are heading off to Portland Port with their pitchforks and billhooks.
They got the blame for letting Black Death in - They don't want to be caught out like that again.:sweat:

Funnily enough I believe you.

Hot of the Press...…… Sunday Times, 08 March 2020. (Page 3).

Good News, Discovery Channel is showing a series called Shipwreck Secrets which includes a show about SS Justica.
The show had many highly, highly p ltantsd we wait with joyous anticipation, a few beers and a spicy pizza.
Highly, highly paid consultants, who were also very good looking.

Um this sounds vaguely familiar :confused:

We are all being advised to wash hands thoroughly and regularly..
Spare a thought for folk with OCD :sweat:

A guy on the telly the other night explained how alcohol kills the Corona virus stone dead.

I'm saved, I'm saved !! :sweat:

One of those sods gets into me, I'll just take another swig, and say: "Suck on that you little f***** !!"

:pint::pint::pint:

I'm drinking pints of Domestos as it reputedly kills 99% of all germs..... bloody awful taste but if followed by several large Black Bush it is palatable. :yawn:

That Greek stuff is almost as bad as the Spanish. Better than Hibernian Black lacquer-lifter I suppose.

I can take or leave Domestos regardless of its origin.

I used to think that Demis Roussos should have used the stage name Domestos. Once he hit those high notes he could send the audience clean out of their minds.

Snow flakes need not look.

We have a lock down situation here. Cant go west to Davao city or East to Tagum city. we are self isolated at our house. and I spend a lot of time in my little workshop (man cave) so its making so little difference to me. we are short of nothing we need so no problem we even have toilet rolls (for cleaning my glasses). we bake our own breads, grow our own veg so no Panic here Steve...LOL

Self sufficient on vegetables? Are you sure it's only for cleaning your glasses?

Confusis he say; man eat plenty veg need plenty toilet roll. Wise man.

Our Government is battling valiantly, as is the EU, to control the spread of the virus by imposing restrictions on travel and closing borders.

Which must explain why I saw articulated rigs travelling North on the M1 this morning displaying registration plates from Poland, Romania, Germany, Portugal, Hungary, France and Spain.

Yep, our masters of the absurd know exactly what to do.

we are fortunate here to have 2 bowel disposal areas, (2 Loo's la trec) and both are equiped with "Bum- Gun's" of suitable pressure to be able to dislodge cling on's, Fecal mater, Grapes or whatever. Darned clever these H&W sanitary boffins and at high pressure can remove anything that hangs.(testimonials supported with tother hand of course) Chromium hoses of 1.5 meters in length in order to accommodate the larger of the species.

Very valid point there Dartskipper. Wondered if they had been refused entry.

I'm keeping 3 foot from my laptop when on-line to Shipping History, will I be safe?

"Is it safe ?"
Depends on who you ask .... :eek:
