I went for a walk round town (suitably social distancing) looking for bog roll. None in any of the 10 shops I got to (that might normally be expected to sell bog roll everything from Waitrose to the local Spar) and I asked in a couple whether it was coming in and being 'panic bought' but they're not even getting deliveries - haven't had for days.

If, as we are being told, there is plentiful supply of bog roll within the UK, why isn't it getting to the shops? If Johnson could sort out bog roll supply chain, it might boost confidence a little.

Loads of shops - including the charity and coffee shops which constitute most of the town - got 'closed for the duration' signs up.

Idiotic tory on tv on sky tv right now claiming growth of infection slower than many other countries because of how good the govt has been. (Not the fact they're not testing!)

I read something recently that it's not really people panic buying, so much as it's supermarkets and shops supply chains not able to deal with a relatively slight uptick in demand due to more people staying at home. The supply chain is tuned to perfection modelled on a typical week, so a slight change and it's unable to cope. So this is stuff like not enough delivery trucks and drivers, warehouse space and workers, and so on. Modern day capitalism gives and gives.

Edit for top of page in 101 BC, the battle of Vercellae took place.

Seems to me they make apps for iShit first long before they think of android users - eg all those schools where they give all the kids ipads. Why?

Anyone much experience with Parcel Farce delivery times? A parcel was set to deliver today so I've stayed in and it's not shown up. Its fair enough with COVID19 but the tracking app isn't showing any updates. Likely to come tomorrow?

Legally, you can't watch a live stream of something being broadcast on real TV without a license.

It's any broadcast TV, not the BBC, and that extends to livestreams as well. Including stuff like Twitch streams of eSports that are shown on C4. You can watch it on catch up (say, the CH-4 9pm news at 11, after +1 has finished), and of course iPlayer is still a no-no.

So we're going into lockdown yeah? That's what this is all about? If they're pulling a state of the nation address like this I can't imagine what else they could announce that would warrant the same gravitas. This is going to be Boris' big 'statesmanlike' intervention surely?
