It's you who brought up the driving to a place with possible contagion as justification for not driving a few more kilometres. I prefer Devil advocates reason that dring further increases the chances of an accident and possibly putting a further load on the emergency services. Cheers Gerry As you w...

How does driving on your own in your car for a few extra kilometres effect the "exposure to contracting or spreading this virus" ? Cheers Gerry Simple, if you drive from an area such as velez Malaga with No confirmed cases to an area nearby with Confirmed cases then it's more of a risk. &...

Big arguments of forums locally: The N332 police Facebook page has posted today that the law says you must only use the supermarket nearest to you. I have, with respect, asked them to quote the law that says this. They have not replied (yet) but there has been an eruption of steam-from-the-ears com...

Lots of tragic stories starting to emerge, a particularly sad one in West Sussex https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8170897/Police-launch-murder-probe-family-four-dead.html I think all of Spain are waiting and hoping to see figures start to look more positive soon as the effect of over two wee...

Nice try.....not biting.

Is there any purpose to posting this? Could be coming to a care home near you in the U.K

Thank you Beachcomber, yes it a very interesting take on the situation which gives much food for thought. I am pretty darn sure you won't get any flack for posting it

Pretty map of the world but meaningless unless the figures are accurate.

Interesting article depicting how we'll know when we are winning or have ultimately won the War against Coronavirus

A little bit of light relief hurts no-one in a time of crisis and yes we are all aware of the seriousness of the current situation here in Spain as we are under and have been for 10 days a proper enforced Lockdown, so as you're commentating from the U.K please if you find our brief interlude of humo...

Not done to great so far has he? Someone who can string a sentence together coherently, someone who can talk for more than a minute without lying, someone who has a bit more gravitas and believability. Maybe someone like Rishi Sunak. But nobody could do a more of a disastrous job than Boris. Only my...

Resignation too much to hope for!!!

If we can believe the figures from China (can we?) it seems that they now have fewer new cases each day and therefore the draconian lockdown system works. Saw this on FB........ Cilla Murphy 19 March at 11:29 It has been a while since my last post when we were in 'lock-down' in China and since I've...

I don't think it's a competition. Don't forget though it's not just about want suppliers and producers want, the workers must be available to do the work as well so it's important to keep them fit and well. The UK has come up with what seems to be good measures to protect the workforce and seems to...

Soz duplicate post

According to Full Fact on March 13 UK was seventh on world list for testing. I think testing is meaningless though. People could be tested on Friday and have the virus on Tuesday. https://fullfact.org/health/coronavirus-testing-numbers-UK/ Any news from Andalucia today. Have the Daily Fail to catch...

Also for anyone making their way back either way, someone said that took hours to get through security at Malaga Airport yesterday. My partner flew through yesterday, they barely looked at her passport. From landing to collecting luggage to car was no more than 25 minutes and that was Malaga airpor...

No as its a Supermarket/Shop that sells food and that is clearly permitted under the decree which you yourself posted above. But hey don't let me stop you "popping to a Chinese Restaurant" if you feel that it comes under food shopping....think the Police may have a wholly different interpr...
