Looks like I'll be doing some extra miles myself, just to stay sane - the roads should be nice and quiet so safer too.

If its a lemon you could argue that collecting it is food shopping!

...as the report is a verbal description sent via wattsapp. Sorry John but I'm with Neal and wouldn't trust that as a source of valid information for a moment.

What's your technique Mr I?

A topical addition to any home!

Do it all the time out cycling but not having a basin handy the trick is to expel it cleanly under your armpit. Most cycling gloves come equipped with a 'towel' section around the thumb area - just in case...!

How are you doing Steve?

And Ant & Paul?

My brothers and I have had my mum, in her mid-80s, isolated since last weekend but she's starting to get like a caged animal. I know one of my brothers is going to collect some shopping for her today and when I called her last evening and she harboured thoughts that 'perhaps I can go out and do the ...

No hang on, I'm down the pub but not talking to anyone.
