A military coup would be just the ticket, before Godzilla rocks up in August.

 

Crikey, DM! What a ridiculous little bellend.

How bad is your decorating that you don't do it full time and make more money than subbing to somebody you clearly think is beneath you?

I think they would be better lobbying to get it made compulsory, at least then they could pull the 'Bigger boys made me do it card'

 

 

And the Lycra would make it plain that the other boys were definitely bigger.

Fixed that for you, Eggs.

There used to be a guy on here under the name of @sloth , real name Kev, based around Colchester. Could be worth trying him although he isn't a new start up.

Oddly, i didnt see the ad calling for ' Proud heavy drinking fat blokes from Southend with poor parenting skills and no bladder control ( and who would shit themselves at the first mortar bomb on a real battlefield) to protect inanimate objects with names they cannot spell'........ Tho i have stopped reading the Daily Sport,  K

I expect the Walter Mitty Hunting Club could have found a few candidates down there.

The corresspondence side is still working, at least in the Small Claims sector.

I have a client who has owed for work done . Half of which was the early part of the year and another job completed recently .The work for this was done months ago however a planning application had to go in and the work only completed early May . After repeated calls and promise of payment we have now got to the point of the phone not being answered to me .They are still operating and have noticed their vans around and have been throughout the lockdown I'm told . 

Courts closed and suppose they know this . 

Anyone else in the same boat .

The courts aren't closed. Small Claims/Money Online is definitely still operating.

When I used to work nights in London many years ago, an 04.30 Sunday morning visit to the Brick Lane Beigel Bake would show you a whole range of society from clubbers to hookers to shift workers, all queuing patiently for their salt beef or smoked salmon and cream cheese. Food of the Gods. you heathen! ?

I was not there Felix, so I will have to take your word for it, even though you also were not there.

 

My point is still very valid anyway.  The media love to create a story, and it is very easy to go the the end of a long beach and take a picture which makes it look as if hundreds of people are all close together.  This picture below is of a queue for a shop and they are all 2 metres apart.  Doesn't look like it does it?

 

Do you trust the media?!

No, I generally don't trust the media until it's verified by more than one source. I do, however, believe my friends as they have no interest in politics and so no bias to serve. It must be odd to feel that you don't trust your friends to tell you the truth.

It is really not difficult to use a telephoto lens and make a beach that may be a mile or two long look crowded.  OK we can see there are lots of people on the beach, but does that mean they are not social distancing?  It would be interesting to see drone footage from above to show how far apart those people really are.  

 

It is worth remembering the internet is full of twisted stories and click bait.  I think a beach is a perfect place to visit in lockdown, and as long as you respect people's personal space and don't start breaking the rules the risks are probably much less than shopping at Tesco.

 

My family would love to spend a day at a beach, and living in South Wales we are quite near to many enormous beaches, but we aren't allowed to.  Apparently it is safer to walk along local roads with no pavements, or cycle with two young kids on narrow lanes.

I can't speak for any other beaches but Southend was as rammed as the pictures suggest. I have plenty of friends who live there that confirm it.

Bat club's on hold at the moment. Fortunately I get to see them in the back garden. Anyway, handling bats isn't the problem. Dickheads eating them might be though.
