One of the first things I'm gonna do when all this is over is throw a fancy dress party round my gaff, and I'm already sourcing stuff to dress as Joe Exotic.  What a legend ?  The Mrs will have to be Carole, who's the real nutter in the whole story...

I've been up & down.  But on the whole I'm handling it a little better now.  I think I've come to accept the situation and the fact that it's gonna be a long haul.  Hopefully not the 6 months the father-in-law ranted about earlier, but with news that this is having a positive affect on the spread, I think it's gonna be another month at least.  One of the biggest things to worry me was being able to feed the family, but shopping on Sunday was quiet and orderly, so the message about not stockpiling appears to be getting through to folk.  So I've felt relieved.
Most important thing I can say is, try not to watch the news frequently, and choose your sources carefully.  And make sure you get out for the walk/jog/run your allowed each day, even if it's for 20 minutes or so.

Apologies if it's a dumb question. 
The Mandalorian....do I need to have seen something else before watching this, or can I just dive straight in?

Not necessarily directly related to CV but my wife, currently recovering from breast cancer, has had to go back on antidepressants. We’ll get through it, especially as she’s determined not to stay on them for too long. It’s not easy trying to stay up beat myself when my wife, daughter, son in law, and brother in law all suffer from depression (reckon I must have a curse or something). But, as I say, we’ll get through it.

I snapped at my lad as he wasn't taking his asthma inhaler properly earlier.  I had to leave the room as I was ready to burst into tears.  Told him I was only trying to keep him healthy...
I keep telling myself it's only gonna get worse before it gets better, and I'm prepared to handle it in a calm and sensible manner.  Carry on turning up for work until I'm told not to, either my manager or 111, and not over shop.  It's the rest of the population I'm more worried about...

Had a hard time watching The Walking Dead tonight, seemed more like a future documentary than a work of fiction...

I  think S2 got a little bit cerebral for my liking.  I'm all for thought provoking shows that engage the grey matter, but they really tipped the scales last time.  Saying that Kiksuya and Vanishing Point were two of the best episodes of television in many a year.
The reviews I've read for those episodes critics have seen are very positive and they've commented that the story is simpler this time, so fingers crossed

The thought of having to eat this little champ when there’s no food left is already upsetting me ?

YES!!!  Another convert...  Justified doesn't get anywhere near enough love from people.  Brilliant show
It certainly isn't high art.  You could tell from the trailer it was gonna be a bit campy.  You can certainly notice it's airport novel origins...
Loved season 1, but I could only manage 3 episodes of season 2 before I quit through boredom
Even though the quality dropped off after the first couple of episodes it's still very good.  Plus as a bonus it features Staffordshire's Finest Paddy Consindine...

Indeed, if by chance he manages to catch Fury with his best shot, we'll have 3 more years of him ducking AJ for the unification.  All this time most folk assumed it was Hearn asking for too greater split in AJ's favour as to why it never happened, whereas now it's more likely Wilder's people were steering clear of a better fighter...

I wouldn't go as far as that, but I begrudgingly respect him for the difficulties he's overcome the past few years.  And I hope he puts Wilder on his arse, as I think Wilder could do with taking down a peg or two...
 
Too soon???

you'll feature on Katie Hopkins twitter account soon aswell!

so, to sum that all up in one line..
 
he has won nothing

If they miss out on the Champions League, and make a bad start to next season, he'll be out on his arse by October.  He'll end up another Roy Keane, could get another job, but the BBC/Sky money will be too cushy...  Anyway, swollocks to him...

Dave on tonight's Brit awards programme.
Powerful stuff indeed.

Top Gear is up to a good standard again,  as good as it ever was, i'd say.
