Time to ask - 'Not what can my country can do for me but what can I do for my country'

A paraphase of JFK, nicked from Cicero But shit is clearly hitting the fan ......
So what are you doing?
A lady, God bless her, without consideration had a printed leaflet delivered with this mornings mail - e mail, address, name, phone and even picture offering to run and collect food, medicine and what ever was needed to those in self isolation/ill health
Very moving in its simplicity and desire to just help
This is going to be shitty, so what are you aware of locally or involved with? Ask yourself fuckers, we need to dig in and do our bit, even if it is just asking the old dear next door if she needs her prescription collected or a pint of milk
It's our way, time to revert to type

People have been great here.
Got a Facebook group for the entire borough set up. Each ward has a coordinator. (Almost) have leafleted every household in the borough. Request for help come in via email, text, Facebook. Two coordinators allocate them by ward, we pick it up and assign neighbours to help.
Leafleting stops after tomorrow and then pressing local radio and newspapers to spread/reiterate. Though they've not responded yet.....
I am getting fed up if being lectured by other, new members to our cause, who don't really do much. I'm going door to door feeling like Bane from Batman to deliver leaflets, wearing surgical gloves (which the fingers get caught in bloddy letterbox) but apparently not enough precaution to stop passing it on.

Supply and demand, no cunt is telling me what and how much I can buy. And if a fat Yank old bill wannabe tries to stop me without the power of the law behind him, I'll cave his fat cunt Yank face in.

Was it the Guardian Angels that came over from the US years ago to man the Tube? Could do with a few of those hanging around the Supermarkets throwing panic buyers into the nearest recycling bin!! I suspect a few of the now out of work bouncers would fancy that!!

In fact, this might be the time to explore Kerala cuisine.

Amen, Hairy.
In this lockdown of social interaction, it's best to prove how virtuous one is by knocking uninvited at homes of elderly people to make sure that if they haven't caught the virus, that you can assist them at any time.

Weird that at my local Aldi, the only meat left is beef.
Never noticed the Hindu demographic before.

A few ilford pages Iām on on FB the common theme is all the shops have doubled (or worse) the prices on rice and baby chickens.
My advice to go on a raw vegan or pork diet gets a few bites.

Unfortunately there will always be those that ruin it. Read about a couple of c**** who knocked on some elderly ladies door told her the government had sent them to sanatize her jewellery from Coronavirus, removed her necklace and rings and scarpered.
