Surreal feeling

[Northeastfarmer]

Does anyone else feel that the whole thing is very surreal
Roads very quiet
Schools shutting
Pandemonium in supermarket
Food shortages
Food rationing
Food rationing
Businesses shutting
Hardly any planes flying
Country in lockdown

We have to carry a permit to go outside. (Admittedly we print it ourself). I went off to the other farm without today’s (new one each day) and had to come back for it.
All very strange.

Yes it is surreal but we aren't in lockdown yet .. I think London might be shortly though.

It will be one of those in 20 years time “where were you when Coronavirus kicked off?”

It feels like an invisible war

Nowt changed here for us. Away fencing 12 hours a day down in a dale away from people, no radio reception so get a good podcast or book on in our ear defenders and earn some money

It's all getting a bit spooky!! A burst hose at those hours. And I'm not kidding either.

There’s nothing changed for me but you have to appreciate the magnitude of the situation

it's like tuning into the pm's daily presser....i mean big announcements every day......but how long before he runs out of things to promise....imagine what it's going to be like by day 50

Just as surreal inside our hospitals right now.
Wards getting emptied out of as many patients as they think it’s possible to safely discharge.
The calm before the storm

I wonder how many journos are crammed in to that media room in No 10 every day.

Poor kids are worried sick between Greta telling them the world is going to end and now this.
Certainly got more worries than I had growing up at their age.

i reckon A&E will be quieter.....less burglaries cos everyone is home......quieter fri/sat nights for police

Boris'll be self isolating.

This whole situation reminds me of the foot and mouth outbreaks from the early 2000s

It was the main topic on the news every night, like this

it was everyone’s main talking point...like this

a lot of folk were waiting to get it...like this

only A lucky few didn’t get caught somehow.....like this

 

[Wombat]

Making the 45min drive to the farm a lot faster but it does feel surreal

I wonder if in places like Slough, Newport and Darlington it's like being in The Walking Dead...
