    Heathrow are no longer closing T3 and T4 but they are closing T5B and T5C and making the other terminals 'smaller'

    Today they had 194 arrivals and 197 departures.

      Two people I know who almost certainly have it.

      One started with a cough, followed with a fever - gradually improved over a week, then went downhill and was iller than ever. He's now improving, but very exhausted.

      The other worked next to a guy who was a confirmed (tested) case and came down with it a week later. He's currently about 3 days in and feeling very rough. Another friend was hanging out with him a week ago, so anxious for him too.

        Reading the US papers who said Trump only does two things, (no real work): Tweet and watch the Stock Market religiously and uses it to reflect on his own performance ergo (but also ego works) to get re-elected. Papers have said he can't stand not having this hence he'd rather have people die and have the markets open.

        He had a negative bluety on a quackhandle and was quadraspazzed on a lifeglug.

        I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

          That would be awesome stop the scroats from nicking the cars near me.

          Sometimes we get Apaches going over and today I spotted an Airbus A380 going overhead which I'd not seen before.

            Trump should pay closer attention to his voters concerns too..

              Brilliant...the 3 g's...
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Tonight’s headline.

                I wonder when the 500 bed EOL ward will hit the news. I suspect it’s a few days away yet.
                Also, the spread is heading north as those who were commuting to London are now WFH. NEC is targeted as the next “hospital”, but the biggest story that will not be confirmed is that a new subcommittee in the NHS is discussing age/ability criteria for treatment.
                …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

                  CID friend of mine has been fitted for a uniform as it's likely she'll be back on the beat soon.

                  People just aren't nicking fags and booze from Gatwick anymore.

                      Better to start planning for the worst now.
