Merton 161,sutton 93,kingston 82 cases as of 9am this morning.

Yes.mate had kidney transplant 4/5 years ago, is isolation for 12 weeks.takes anti rejection tablet twice a day.think he was in 4 days with his transplant. A womble mate donated his kidney to him.

That sounds a bit quick but very possibly safer at home. I think transplant patients have immuno suppressant drugs so are very high risk.

Plough Lane Bond now slumped back below £5.4 million for some reason.

A young lady I work with had a kidney transplant on Friday and is home today. I don't know if that's normal

Me too. I'm trying to do the right thing and keep out of harm's way.

I consider myself one of the very lucky ones Swin, my job to sit on my arse at home.

You must be very worried Wu, both in your work and going home to your family? You don't normally think of NHS staff being at risk like fireman or policeman but it's opened my eyes to what the job is.

In my boredom I watched for the first ever time Mean Machine,which was woeful to be fair,my favourite thing was seeing Wally as the teams physio,is that when he learnt how to do his dodgy betting activities

You're cracking me up Slow, hang in there. I had already been at home for 5 weeks before this lockdown. Just as well I like my own company

I tried Pandemic Lurker, that wasn't much relief from BBC or Sky news so gone permanently on the back burner.

Slow - massive changes in every specialty to keep chronic disease patients safe, reduce hospital footfall and create COVID capacity in terms of both beds and staffs Many of us are now contributing directly to the COVID effort. What this does to waiting lists longterm is a separate concern, but we have to fight the clear and present danger.

Just stopped at start of Season 2 of designated survivor, subject matter touch raw at the moment so will come back to that a few months down the line. In theory Sunderland Til I Die part 2 to look forward to next week. Let's see what they make of their first season in L1 with us plebs.

Doc - from what you said I assume you are at a hospital but looking after non-COVID patients? Do you get drafted in at the peak or do some have to remain doing what you're doing now?

Really interesting and helpful insights over the past few weeks Wu 👍🏻

tGG - Much improved. Been marshaling the queue at the door. It's like I never left stewarding.

Uncut Gems in Netflix is great.

Excellent recommendation from gg. Follow up ok too.

I have to go Asda in the morning, looking at the advice I think the snorkel equipment is coming out.

... actually, thinking about it, it was not a lot different from many parts of the UK back then.

Thanks Walchwil, I am rapidly moving into Netflix phase of this crisis.

Far far more effective to not go out unless necessary, maintain 2m social distance at all times, avoid touching your face when out, and wash hands for 20 seconds on return.

Well, "The Mire" just released on Netflix is worth watching if only for it's depiction of how grim Poland was 40 years ago - and obviously must still be in the places where it was filmed ...

My mask says ‘Wuhan Xmas 2019’ on it. 3m rule seems easy to achieve.

Of course the virus can get into the mucus membranes around your eyes as well which the mask won’t help with. This all assumes these are the basic surgical masks.
