There could be an upside to all this, you know.

Seafood restaurants will be closing, right? So for the next few months there won't be anywhere to go for your lobster and chips, right? So all the lobsters will be able to concentrate on boning each other instead of avoiding being caught, see?

This time next year we'll be waist deep in the pinchy little bástards. :cloud9:

They'll all be panic bought when the next virus does the rounds. I suspect this will be a regular occurence from now on in our lives every couple of years.

On a positive note it may cause people who wanted to change industry for many years to actully do it.

Controversial C, that's on the way to a full English and I can't be bothered with that shít. Actually I'm struggling to be bothered with anything :-( Even this reply was almost beyond me :-\

I really don't think you've grasped just how big the impact of this continuing will be. The 2008 crash is chickenfeed next to this. The impact of it and the need to pay for the fiscal measures being taken to counter it are going to wreck the economy for a generation.
