I thought you were on your deathbed? Or was it a Lazurus job?

half term anyway in a weeks time.

Gendarmes stopping every vehicule exiting and entering town.

So far no fines imposed first afternoon but that will quickly change.

I must complete an 'attestation' for every journey and belt and braces, back it up with the job quote, business reg. cert and a procuration from my employeur (wife) that I am about legitimate company business.

If I wanted to stop off at the Supermarket on the way home, I would require another 'attestation' for this task...ffs.

I think your right about the schools, my little one came home with a notebook and pencil from her teacher today, they will have some on line work to do no doubt. They are worried that if the kids are off they may infect the grandparents. At the school my missus works at quite a lot of the grandparents drop the kids off so that the parents can go to work. I don’t know anyone with a full time job that fits around school hours.

Yup there is going to be a lot of neglected kids out there. One reason why they don't like shutting schools, a lot of kids rely on a decent meal and the support a school provides.

I refuse to stockpile anything. We're now hearing baby formula is being bought by panic buyers as milk and powdered milk is running out. Which is just great when we have an 8 month old. The missus breastfeeds as best she can but the wee one is a bloody gannet.  

We've got a 3 month year old. Echo the above, and seriously unimpressed by these selfish morons.

If anybody has stock piled,i would guard it with your life cos it aint gonna be long before some fu&&ers come looking for it,theres gonna be all hell let loose soon

Sadly this is probably accurate. Every aspect of this unfolding drama is occurring the way I said it would - it's going to hit us like a freight train, there'll be martial law at some stage, and scumbags will start thieving and playing up more than usual..

Dont let facts like this get in the way of a good moan/rant/scare story.

Simply not what a school is for. Maybe, if nothing else, this panic over nothing might change this.
