I still have a cough myself now, but only minor. I think the worst of it lasted for four or five days before the breathing problems started. Unforunately, what you describe here, is just how it is/was for us two. "But the cough is driving me nuts. Once I start, it's uncontrollable and nothing...

No, the fever hit first, then cough, then the loss of smell. The fever has broken to something more like a normal flu type temperature now. No breathing difficulties so I'm keeping fingers crossed. Hope you stay well.

The Swedes have taken the mature approach haven't they, the actions they took were similar to the UK first response (Bars open, but a request made to not use them. Work from home etc.) but with a seemingly greater public response. Fingers crossed their tactic works. I've spent a little time in...

Apart from the back yard, we've not been out since the day that the first distancing measures were announced. Then of course I was ill, now the missus is ill, so a week after her symptoms go we'll be able to take a walk. Sods law, the total lock down will come into effect then LOL I'm still...

Nevermind top of the range kits, I've made some bottom of the range kits that have been better than some of my AG brews LOL.

Let's just hope for the best, but human nature amongst the selfish is a worry. I received a remarkable text from a mate today. Belarus are going ahead with their football season next weekend. The Belarus (Country, not FA) President was quoted as saying that the Coronavirus is a psychosis which...

I can't see it myself, but I agree with you fully. Civil unrest/looting is probably a political concern if a complete shut down were to happen.

This should be compulsory viewing for all those aged 20-50 who intend going out this weekend.

Well, the Missus is mirroring pretty much how I was except she's also lost her sense of smell but her throat isn't as sore as mine was. She's also got a dose of the trots (which under normal circumstance I would find funny) so it's an extra battle to keep her hydrated, but she's coping. To keep...

The missus is now pretty much as I was I think. she is boiling hot. I've got ice packs on her. I've never seen her this ill. If one more person (In real life) says it's just a flu conspiracy I think I will explode.

oh effing marvellous. my missus has now got the cough. to be honest, i'm remarkably surprised she didn't just talk the virus into submission.

I think you'll like him, he's knocking on a bit, but he's a young OAP if you know what I mean. If you want to just see lots of fish caught, his boat fishing ones are fun, or the ones where he gets sharks are entertaining :)

I read somewhere it's approx 400 quid to get it done privately. Anyone else see that?

If you like fishing, there's a guy on youtube. I've been a subscriber for a long time, his channel is TA Fishing. It's very popular. He's very easy to watch and entertaining. Everything from Boat/Beach/Fly/Coarse. Recommended. I'm going to try and learn enough French to at least understand...

yeah. last summer, i was sat outside, early evening having a pint with the radio on, nipped into the house for a wee, came back out and two of em were stood on a tiny table eating my pistachios. I'm used to them using me as target practice for their divebombingcrapping but that was taking the...

Thanks Northern Brewer A DPS, you learn something new every day!

I always thought... An owner can be the licensee if they also run it. ie a freehouse. An owner (like a brewery) obviously can't oversee the bar and the daily running, so an employee becomes licensed to run it. I grew up in a pub, my Dad was the Landlord of it, the Licensee. Hence the little...

Thanks. I took paracetamol but it was still an horrible fever. I'm certainly no expert but I think it's the 'second' stage when the lungs are affected which cause the vast number of fatalities and hospital admissions. Of course paracetamol is no use with regard to the pneumonia/whatever it is...

I've got a PB of Brown Ale, 20L of a juicy IPA bottled and ready to sup, two dozen bottles of Coopers stout and loads of shop bought beer in the shed if anyone fancies a pint and a game of darts.
