Well the weather not been great lately, so that has curtailed a lot of outdoor activities.

What are the mighty BCF gonna do to amuse themselves during the imminent lockdown?

Me , I’m going to teach my cat Cantonese or maybe finish doing a few bits of DIY that I keep putting off.

Type clinic letters probably Rolling Eyes
(I'm supposed to have checked if I have the remote access that the I.T. department were working so hard to give us last week, still haven't done it, doh!)

* Maybe fap
* Bingewatch Netflix
* Smoke dope
* Annoy the cats

Got a couple of writing projects on the go which I might push a bit further: got no excuse to do them if I'm stuck indoors, really Laughing

Might paint the desk in my living room and put it in the bedroom.

Might move some of the books and boxes out of my living room so that they are UNDER THE DESK once I move it.

Might smoke dope and chat to my homies on WhatsApp instead.

So yeah ... it would be just like a weekend ... only LONGER
Just another day at planet hellkat.
Cool

Join in any looting, unfortunately not likely on the Eastern side of Wiltshire.

Smoke dope.

Thrash my bikes round empty roads. I doubt there will be much to lock down rural back roads.

Polish shiny bits of the Enfield even more.

In the main though, work. Unfortunately even with the Plague occurring Logistics is a necessity and I can mostly do my job from home.

I'm at work and as busy as a little beaver on speed.

Probably stuck at work for the foreseeable future.

I would suggest that going out for a ride on your motorcycle carries zero risk of either transmitting or catching coronavirus.

Hmmm? I thought the purpose of lockdown was that everyone has to stay indoors?

The purpose if a "lockdown" is surely so people are not exposing themselves or other to a risk of transmitting disease. I can't see how taking your bike for a spin would do this.

Arguably the only point this could happen is when you fill up with fuel but we're talking about handling a fuel nozzle and keypad here. You could put a disposable glove on if you think that's an unacceptable risk.

There has to be common sense.

Although I'm not isolated in any way shape or form yet, I've decided to take myself on a trip to Mornington Crescent via Facebook.

I'm looking forward to seeing which (if any) of my mates are up for it.
Usually an entertaining expedition, if you get the right fellow-travellers on board.
Mr. Green Thumbs Up

Not that I haven't now got a THOUSAND other things that I should be doing instead Rolling Eyes Laughing

"Public face £1,000 fine or custody for refusing coronavirus tests and quarantine"

People aged over 70 face up to four months in self-isolation and the public risk being taken into jail or a £1,000 fine if they refuse to be tested or quarantined for suspected coronavirus.

The emergency powers, expected to be announced this week, allow police in England and Wales to use ‘reasonable force’ to detain people who are at risk of infecting others.

The Health Protection (Coronavirus) Regulations 2020, published on the government's website, states that those suspected of having the disease, can be held for up to 14 days in a secure hospital or other suitable location. If they abscond they can be taken into custody before being returned to detention or isolation, the regulations state....

Flashing. If nobody else is about I intend to move from front window to front window dressed in nowt but a raincoat, exposing myself with deft wrist-flicks to the sick and immobile of the village. I will wear a balaclava to avoid recognition of course...

As I'm not considered to be business critical I'm likely to be told not to use the works vpn as it wont be able t8 handle the number trying to use it.


I will therefor be fixing my fence and adding sockets and strip lighting to the garage.

I'm a Zero Hour wanker, so I will be going to work until the day I'm in a pine box. I will infect anyone and everyone if I have to.

I'm going for the herd method of controlling this virus thing.
