If I need rubbish journalism, unfounded advice and downright false news, this is where I go to get my fix. I am Norfolk born and bred and think this website is excellent for raising a smile Thumbs Up

Italy 2005 Defender 110 Td5 SW Alpine White
Incredible !! Exactly what we wrote 3 weeks ago in the Italian forums. Now Italian doctors can only choose who to let die and who to save. When the choice will be between your father or your wife, do not blame NHS but the damned Friday evening you had at the pub. For people who likes numbers, don't forget that the deaths are on top of the normal ones not instead of. Your prime minister stated 60% of you will get positive. Not talking of the italian 6% death rate, not talking of the Chinese 2,5% .... think of only 1% rate in the UK 56 milion people x 60% > 33 milion positves > 330.000 deaths on topo of the normal rate .... Nothing to smile about. Good luck and I hope I will read ALL of you and your comments in 3 weeks time !

It will mean that both I and you survived ....

Think I will go and buy a funeral plan, whilst I can still afford it. Or, do I wait for the mass communal grave.

Throwing figures around which have no basis on real time scenarios does nothing but add to the hype and media garbage already being thrown about.

So tonight’s announcement of the french prime minister can only mean that the European ski season is over and out for this season. Switzerland already formally ended it earlier this week. Quite something really.
Eric You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

I've a friend who's a doctor in Public Health England. Three weeks ago she described herself as the only one not panicing in her department.
Now she's arranging for her elderly parents to be have their groceries delivered to reduce their risk of exposure.

Right now, I'm just glad I don't live in a city.

The government is damned either way. If the outbreak doesn't get bad, they'll be blamed for overreacting. If it does get bad, they'll be blamed for reacting too slowly.

Hope not, and I’m surely not qualified to say what comes next. But it is a strange feeling that European country after European country declare emergency and now successive take measures which kill their country’s economy. Unusual.

This is unprecedented, it’s unknown times ahead, I just hope everyone stays safe and is sensible in taking simple precautions like hand washing and think about keep distance from other to try and prevent the spread of this. My thoughts and thanks go out to nursing staff the world over dealing with this especially those with families. Thankyou in this country to the NHS Bow down 2015 HT XS 90

yeah things are very rocky now and I think we are going into the un known this year, There is a case of it near to where I live, so its un the sunderland area now. One of the lasses who works where my mum works, her other half had symptoms of it, so they sent her home. One lad I used to work with has gone into self isolation, he has bad cold or something a long those lines. So he isn't taking any chances. Only a matter of time, some one will bring it into where i work, and i think the production will come to a stand still.
Only a matter of time I think for us all now, when we catch it sadly Sad
