Kind of like squatting on the rice paddy dike taking a dump with momma san.
Has anyone here on the forum caught the Coronavirus yet?

Though properly I am described as a city boy or better as a military brat my family went on summer family vacations to visit our country cousins who did not yet have indoor plumbing. I think I could hold it for a good 5 or 6 days before having to visit the outhouse.
Day 2. I have no symptoms, whisky supply still good.
The wife is hot/cold/hot/cold, but no cough. Good job, otherwise she'd be wanting a hot toddie - we'd be in real trouble then.

Being raised a true Tennessee Hillbilly, I did not experience the joy of indoor plumbing in our house until I was in the first grade (we moved to a city farm).
You ain't lived until you've taken a bath in grey water in a number 5 washtub with lye soap!

We now see what happens to the level of discourse on a motorcycle forum when it is too cool to be out riding and everyone is stuck at home getting cabin fever behind their computer screens! 
IT'S NOW OFFICIALLY A CRISIS OF SOME MAGNITUDE!
They've only gone and closed the bloody pubs

Even worse, I might have to watch repeats on the BEEB when I stay in
. Or talk to Er'Indoors on a Saturday Night instead of going to the boozer

they've been closed here for weeks. One of the local bars ignored the order, the cops went in and shut them down and boarded up the entrances.

Cincinnati bar boarded up after violating statewide order meant to curb coronavirus spread
Officers checked the bar on Sunday and gave them a warning, but they continued to violate the order and were shut down.

Boris emphatically told people to only travel if necessary, and not to car pool. Supermarkets etc remain open.
You can fit a good amount of alcohol into an ST, and it's an excuse to not be at home. Heck, even in a group ride, most would be at least 2m apart naturally.
Thank you AdHom, I feel better for that. A bit......

Boy, that one is top notch - I don't even see any spaces between the boards for 'ventilation' ...
You know that is a 2fer... ride to buy and escape SWMBO at the same time!
It's my favourite interpretation of "social distancing"You know that is a 2fer... ride to buy and escape SWMBO at the same time!
"Sorry love, I HAVE to go for a ride, we need, err, stuff.... and I have to keep my distance from folk..."
If only we weren't isolating because she's a teacher & was unwell. Still, 12 days to go. I'm not counting, honest.

This is me at the country cousin's house saying "in about 50 years I'm getting one of those ST1300s, right now I'm liking this hot bath!"

well you do look happy lol
That's an "I just peed!" look if I ever saw one.
Well, FWTW, I went through an influenza epidemic along the northern provinces of Thailand and Cambodia in 1979-80 that killed 7-8k of the locals. it got me into a clinic that was like a GP Large canvas tent where we were all in something like jungle hammocks. I did okay because the locals took all the kids and tasked them with looking after one or two people. I got buckets of pepper/chicken soup and quarts of Sig Hi beer and flushed the fever. But the thing i remember is that I was never left alone. My Dad, West Point '44, will be 98 this October. I can't visit him. He is alone. Offer your payers for all the oldies that are so frail. thanks

No, not yet, but it keeps marching ever closer.
My nephew was sent home from work today and told to self-isolate because someone in the building has symptoms.
My neighbour is in self-isolation as well but no symptoms.
My sister, who is a nurse in Los Angeles, was told that one of the nurses may be infected- waiting for test results. This is particularly concerning because she is asthmatic.
We humans arrogantly act as though we rule the world and are in control of everything in it.
A small organism, that is imperceptible to us, comes along and happily and effectively ignores our claims of superiority.

Is the 104 from the disease or suicides of people restoring British cars?
None in Northumberland. Yet.
