    Am I the only one that hadn't heard the word 'furlough' before all of this?

    If it had come up in a quiz, I'd have said it was something to do with horse racing.

    I know it from 'You'll Never Get Rich/ Phil Silvers Show".

    Apart from now, don't think I've heard or read it in another context.

    The government/UK taxpayer has lost billions taking part ownership of RBS and Lloyd's. Apparently Virgin is a week away from bankruptcy.

    The bailout to RBS will never be recovered, I think it’s about £30b that’s expected to be lost, but Lloyd’s was repaid in full.

    The Lloyds loan was repaid, but you're not factoring in the loss through inflation which was ca. 2% a year for 7 years. 20 billion in 2010 was worth significant more than 20 billion by 2017 (?).

    Yep did that tonight, both over 70 so its tough for them not seeing my family. Think i am going to see them and drop off some essentials for them before a full lockdown happens. Dad can open drive gates and stick a chair there for me and they can sit at other end of the drive about 5metres away. It's hard and going to get harder seeing your Mam in tears on a video call isn't easy. Tried to reassure her it would be no different if i still worked away or lived abroad.

    if the virus can live for days on the right surface im sure the minute the animal dies the virus doesnt follow suit
    if it can survive on paper for 8 hours and for 2 or 3 days on plastic and steel im sure still warm but cooling dead animal tissue will still be party time for a similar amount of time.

    Thousands and thousands now becoming infected...

    70 to 80 % of the World will eventually become sick...

    Those who survive will be talked about for decades...

    ‘ Did you panic buy Grandad‘ ?


    You know who you are...
