A million businesses are going under,
In 3 months tens of thousands of families will be made homeless.
And you're on here bragging about a claim?

I think he's just pointing out the efficiency of the Germans. Although yes, it does come across as a bit crass.

Nothing coming my way at all, I’ve slipped through the cracks of any government plans

Shit. Not you too.

Well at the very least it gives J the chance to get the Lederhosen on I guess. 
Not sure if you know but J is half German, it’s been a while since he mentioned it so if you have been away making a brew you may have missed it.

How can the Government call the fund’s Emergency when the first payment is in June?

Here’s hoping common sense prevails.

I don’t think he is bragging, just looking for comparisons to the U.K. situation. Germany are a bit ahead of us with the virus and obviously other things.

I do agree that the situation here is terrible though. We'll keep going for as long as we can, which will likely be when we stop being able to get parts for machines when they break.

Or when a certain someone drinks all your diesel because the whisky has run out?
