Complete lockdown
Just a heads up The Ministry of Defence have been told to be on standby for complete UK lockdown as of Sunday evening at 6pm... No one is to leave their home's unless you work in Front Line Retail or the NHS...
I heard this directly from my neighbour Trigger who is best friends with a guy called Boycey. Boycey knows a guy named Del who drinks down the pub with his uncle Albert. Albert was in the Navy during the war so knows his stuff..

can't be using soldiers to enforce the lockdown as, and it's from a reliable source, they're all secretly digging graves in National Parks ready for the massive demand.

Ah, that explains all the "walkers" in the National Parks. Undercover grave diggers! Very cunning I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
well ... the email I saw last Wednesday that said we'd all be in 100% lockdown by Friday evening "and I heard it from Sharon in accounts and her dad is in the government so it must be true", er, wasn't true.
I was told that every Disco 1, 2 & 3 owner with a "one life live it" sticker were finally going to get their wish of driving anywhere they pleased on National trust land as long as they took a few bodies out there with them to bury. They have been issued with new stickers (What do you think they are ?)The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.

It's as if you have second sight. Local Fumblemuckers have been out in force this weekend. It's like they sense the emergency services might be busy and deploy a mechanism that allows them to justify doing whatever the hell they want.
Locals spent a lot of time and effort reestablishing hedging and young trees near the ford by my place, only for it all to get ripped out these last two days so simple folks could rag their MOT failure carpboxes around wherever they fancied.
And possibly not entirely coincidentally, damage to fields from poaching and reported thefts from farms has rocketed this last week.
I can see a few Tony Martin cases happening before long.I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
