How is the corona virus affecting you?

I currently have 158 bottles of beer (640ml) shortly to be 157, 1 bottle of cabernet sauvignon (obviously un-opened), about ⅔rds bottle of Thai whiskey, ½ bottle of Chinese wine (virus free) and, if push comes to shove, a jar of rubbing alcohol.

Take one down, pass it around, 156 bottles of beer on the wall. :whistling:

I think we'll be ok: we have 36 bottles of sparking wine (though these are now rationed...until we are allowed to travel to France), around 10 bottles of still wine (mostly special ones), 4 bag-in-boxes of wine, 38 cans of beer and various spirits (not sure exactly what). Plus we should have three home winemaking kits arriving this week (each kit makes around 30 bottles) :drink:
 
I was ill at the beginning of the month with what they called a "flu-like virus". I had an awful sore throat and dry cough, headaches, sneezing, all sorts of aches and pains including chest pains, and generally feeling like sh*t. I didn't feel well enough to do much at all until last weekend, and even then I decided not to go out except for taking the dog out for short walks (anything longer than round the block exhausted me). I did have one clinic appointment I couldn't get out of no matter how I tried so I drove there and back. I made the mistake of popping in to the supermarket opposite the clinic and really wished I hadn't bothered. Since then I haven't been out at all. I did open the windows to let some fresh air in, but that was about it, and I didn't even bother to do that this morning seeing as one of my cats got out yesterday - they are indoor cats and I think she was just investigating the big wide world but it really worried me as she didn't come back when called. However, after about 10-15 minutes I heard a pathetic bleating coming from outside, and there she was. In normal circumstances where I live is very busy (next to 3 industrial estates and 3 care homes) so I might not have got her back at all. The dog gave her what for when she did return. I don't think she'll be going out the front again.

Cauli $10 each & $11kg broccoli & $12kg tomatoes - things have been stupid expensive. Between the drought, fires, floods & virus it’s just ridiculous

what are you looking for? Our family are car mad. My Dad was into V8’s and bikes but my partner is into high performance mostly Japanese or German. My daily is an Audi TT Quattro right now. Getting sick of driving a 6 speed in city traffic though so I’m thinking I’ll tidy her up and put her away.

You're on the mend now, though, right?
 
Okay, semi- lockdown from now to the 1st of june.

- No one can be in groups larger than 3, anywhere unless close relatives
- All events and gatherings until the 1st of june are cancelled
- Stores or people not sticking to the rules face hefty fines or persecution
- Public places can be closed down if too many go there
- Non essential stores are recommended to close
- If anyone in your family is ill, staying home is mandatory

So this is pretty big. If this does not work, the next step is full lockdown according to the prime minister.

Ciao a tutti,
Statement of Prime minister look as total lockdown.
I still inside and I feel unwell with MS today lot of dizzy and pain, hands they shake bad even speak little bad I spoke to neighbour through window he say I sound drunk!! I not!
I try make me busy, many year I used be fit an enjoy running I try treadmill today and fall down. I clean house as best can but I have six bedroom so hard on own. I decide kitchen clean, my bathroom clean and bed clean be enough, I can not chase the dust now. I never feel so alone. Even if my Ray come back we no be able to be in same bedroom! I so need him hold me my children say I be OK I hope.
So I wait letter to say I stay inside 12 weeks I on Methylprednisolone is immune system suppress. I on others also.
But I hold to God.
We have saying in Napoli. If you control worry, if no control let God worry. If God no control then no worry you finish anyway!

May God hold an protect all here.

EH Holden 64 is what I want but prices are crazy, even looked at ozzy cars. Audi, you made me laugh. A rich guy I know with no common sense bought an Audi brand new about 20 years ago. He went to get gas, left keys in it, lol. Someone stole it. I thought it was so funny. This guy was so arrogant .
