    Awful news. Not a fan of him or his party, but on a human level let's all hope the bloke pulls through.

    I totally agree, no one deserves to die from this ...

    ... on a practical level, the raft of possible replacements makes me shudder.

    It seems he's in intensive case now.

    I wonder how Catherine Calderwood will be feeling tonight.

    You're looking at the lass to the right of the lad, holding hands with the lad next to her. She's deffo got two legs. The lass with one leg is the second to the lads right, so your left as you're looking at it. Her head is just below the green man on the traffic lights and she deffo only has one leg.

    Edit. I spotted it as I'm a great detective camel marra, me great granda taught that Sherlock lad all he knew.

    Hope and pray Boris gets through this.

    He was clearly ill in his video updates, and when they said he was in hospital for "checks".. I had a strong suspicion it was worse than that.

    Currently in intensive care, but not yet on a ventilator.

    I have a bad feeling about the direction he's heading in.

    I'd have thought the pets had more chance of catching it from their owners than the other way round tbh. At least, that's how i'm seeing it and am now considering mine to be an equivalent of a corona test. If they both start coughing, I'll think I've caught it and passed it onto them.

    Agreed. They think the tiger caught it from a handler.

    That unfortunately doesn't stop people being stupid though. Local RSPCA has had pets dropped off because people think that they might catch it.

    I guess the virus could live on their coats but hand hygeine should sort that out.

    I can only see the right leg like. Even when I look at the bottom of her coat there's a gap where a leg should be. I'm gutted as I only got some new glasses last month and they obviously have a defect when it comes to seeing an occasional left leg on a medical worker. **** you specsavers, **** you.

    Edit. Now I see it, was baffling me to bits. Sorry specsavers.

    If you've got a scoll wheel on your mouse then hold down Ctrl and scoll up. The screen will zoom in

    If Boris survives this the NHS will be safe at least under his leadership

    Starting to put the fear of God into myself now like. Had a headache on and off for about 3 days, stuffy nose, dry cough started yesterday and has got fairly rough and just at the back end of it is a little shortness of breath. It's probably nowt more than a cold, I don't have a temperature and I don't feel that bad, but you definitely start to wonder in the back of your mind.

    I had the same conversation today with an Italian friend, who's holed up in Switzerland ...

    ... he had the same symptoms and convinced himself he was infected, he wasn't.

    He was laughing about it and said most of it was psychosomatic.

    Keep an eye on it mate. If it worsens see someone about it.

    Hope it's nowt more than a cold you have there marra BUT if that breathing gets worse or your temperature starts rising or fluctuating, get onto 999 straight away. Not worth taking any risks, hope you feel better soon.

    This is exactly it. 2 months ago, this wouldn't have even registered as a problem - just another seasonal cold which I get every bloody time anyway! Now you just have that creeping doubt in your mind <laugh>
