This will not be over in a month for Great Britain...you had a bad start...stumbled in the blocks...but you are moving quick now that you have hit full speed....Hey is that a speed bump just ahead? This race ain't near won yet.

Surely they will be able to work everything out.

If there is a shortened season that will all have to be erased since we are starting over again....remember I said they would make top 5 and they will with a properly structured restart. If not then the season is terminated and we go at it all again next year!

...and then he might just have to take over the whole shabang!

It is all God's will.

Can't fix stupid...they are trying their best but not thinking things out....they are incompetent and out of their depth. I'm sure they are educational 'experts' thought with lots of qualifications and degreees so Bob can rest assured the right people are in the right positions making the right decision. They are qualified so its all Okay. Right.

I've been staying off the treads about this coronovirus for awhile...its like a bad movie replaying. I've been through this type of thing twice and see the same patterns evolving....people in charge panicking as they come up with a plan and, in many cases, ignore previous protocols. Then people getting the filtered info and hoarding. Some not taking it serious and then the stark reality hitting them (happening now). Bobs point is well taken though, the arm chair quarterbacks, previously unknown 'experts' etc. not knowing what they are talking about, Bob has made that point quite well. Hang in there everyone this too shall pass. In both previous times I went through something this a quote from my childhood replayed in my head many times, "Stand to your work and be wise, certain of sword and pen, who are neither children not Gods, but men in a world of men."

Now who is being: "Silly and presumptuous?"

No I am not....I am being realistic and factual. I am being analytical.

Bob you are not listening...you have two ears and one mouth for a reason. When you hold a slowly dying child in your arms with people in Hasmat suits buzzing around you , well you sort of make it your business to find out....which I did.

Poorly done Bob but it is what it is. You can lightly dismiss someone who has been through this twice before (once for 9 months with no potable/running water!)..the best teacher in life is experience, not qualifications! I think some people know what they are talking about but I take your point that there are many self proclaimed experts....my statement was based on factual, real life experience(s). You still owe me that apology.

Touchy Bob touchy! I'm not in the UK either but am able to follow along...while you discuss/debate qualifications decisions need to be made based on the evidence at this time....while you dally the window of action closes....you are frozen with fear....relax...think it out. The personal attacks with those who don't agree with you certainly don't help Bob.. You know nothing about my personal experience....I have been isolated/locked down (for large blocks of time) and treated by folks in the suits, this happened twice to me both during the SARS outbreak and an unknown E Coli outbreak, which both killed many. I was locked down with a full family in both instances, for long stretches of time.....maybe I know a little about it? You need to relax and not be so close minded...I'll put your false assumptions and misguided comments down to the stress of the situation at the moment. Relax....be open to the ideas of others who have been through this before. You owe me an apology.

Some people have small ones at home who need care....it seems obvious that others will have to step in (family/friends)....Human Resources for the NHS needs to step forward with a flexible work schedules...there will certainly be a per centage who can't make their shifts due to this problem. The food supply problems easily solved by not allowing hoarding....the trucks are running. If there is any looting all looters should be shot on sight.

The Golden Dory by Stompin Tom Connors please.

Totally ridiculous...not acceptable.

My statement was factual Bob and you know it. No need to be so touchy but it is obvious that what I said was simply a pretty clear observation of what is happening. Great Britain was late off the mark on all of this and the schools should be closed. You have fundamentally misjudged what is going on....for some it will be a fatal delay; them be the facts of it Bob.

Lots of fruit here...no grapefruit though I'm not allowed grapefruit...of course it had to be my favourite of them all.

Not just a disgrace...ITS A DAMNED DISGRACE!

The schools cannot be opened until the outbreak is over for at least two weeks or else this is all for naught..

It seems pretty clear that Great Britain has dropped the ball on this situation...you guys are late off the mark.

Its like something our of Communist Russia.;

You remember when you were in the Army..all the needles...they lined us up...made us take off our shirts and walk the line 6 needles in each arm....and made to do pushups after (just to work it all in they said)......some people just faint, it has nothingn to do with being tough, its just a n ingrained reaction in a certain per centage of the population. Question: Are Armed Forces members getting it at a lower rate?....could one of the malarial/red fever (et al.) innoculations cause a decreasein the infection rate?

Hard packed preserves (like a solid block of brown sugar) etc. can be softened up by placing a small orange/lemon peel in with it for awhile sealed up...its amazing! People just might have to lean some of the Old Ways once again.

This should not be surprising to anyone that has followed the story all along. We will prevail against all the odds in the end.

What are you going to do if your freshwater drinking supply becomes contaminated?
