Biggest Recession since 1706

I cant like that but I do agree. I so hope it isn't but I honestly would not be surprised with the figure being twice that.

In time we shall see.

Except we haven't got 130k cases a day , you need a tranquiliser

Again not my figure! Like the 4% figure 130,000 current infections is what the Chief Scientific Officer put the number at yesterday based on all the data and all the studies that come in front of him and his team. He didn't state what the confidence figure they are working on is but we can be sure it is less than + or - 130,000.. One moment you tell us the numbers who have had the virus is much higher are you now saying the number of current infections is much lower, you cant have it both ways??

See , you're off again , they said 4% may have had it ... not 4% presently have it and are emitting virus

On a brighter note

In Spain, a 113-year-old woman - believed to be the country's oldest - has recovered from Covid-19, officials say.

Maria Branyas has lived for two decades at a care home in the north-eastern city of Olot.

Where did I say 4% have and are emitting the virus?? 4% of the population is 2.6million not 130,000.

Whatever , if you're sensible there's minimal chance of getting infected .

Technically speaking if R goes back over 1 stays there there is at least at 60% chance at some point you will be infected so minimal your chances are not

My grandad god rest his soul always said ‘farming always work opposite to normal world’ and I have always took more growing up of this and it seems true.

1990 to 1996 were the best farming years, when the economy was in recession and negative equity everywhere

I started on my own, 96, 1/2 way through the year, everything started dropping in value, my investment, halved in 6 months, and left me seriously hard up, following an accident in 99, I had virtually nothing left, not even sure how we kept going, but it teaches you the value of money, and I worked my way back. And then people like flowerpot, rant that we don't know how hard things are.

You really don't know how hard things are.

To quote Gandhi when he was asked to visit the mill town of Darwen to see what effect the Indian national Congress boycott of British goods was having on mill workers in the town.
