The veneer of civilisation is extremely thin.

I plan on washing my hands more, I see no point in changing anything else in my life.

Until they close the pubs, of course. At that point I'm getting militant on someone. :nod:

Life is undoubtedly going to change for many of us, f. Indeed, we're going to come out the other side of this thing in a completely different country - a different world, indeed. Like a world war, many old ideas will be swept away, as we learn that things we thought were important probably weren't, and that things we dismissed now seem essential. There's no point worrying about. Best roll with it and see where the punches throw you.

I'll give you an extreme example: unable to buy a free range chicken, for my Sunday dinner yesterday I enjoyed a rib of beef with Yorkshire pudding and potatoes roasted in beef dripping. NO ROAST CHICKEN ON A SUNDAY? Madness.

But it would good, f. Really good.

I'd feel a bit more optimistic if I wasn't in the worse possible industry for this.
And if my tyres didn't keep going flat.

Also Pat Vegas top tip avoid the supermarkets and check out the local shops, I managed to get some pasta yesterday.

My worry is that during such cataclysms we tend to put powers in the hands of the state that it is loath to relinquish afterwards. It took us 40 years to undo the socialistic damage created by the Second World War. :-(

It wasn't a politician who diverted me from the fowl to the bovine, b. It was simply circumstances.

It will be a cold day in hell when some jumped up civil servant gets to decide which animal I roast.

If it came down to eating your pets, would you start with the horses on the grounds of 'last in, first out'?

No, I'd start with the horses ont he grounds that horsemeat is delicious and cat's meat undoubtedly rank. The chickens would no doubt make a decent poule au pot but would neeed a proper long boiling I reckon.

Yes, but eating the chickens would be short-termism, since they can produce the eggies.
