Apparently it's a rumour doing the rounds on (other) social media, along with other nonsense

Rumour it may be but currently there are army trucks parked on eastern ave in dagenham east.That is fact.

Jeezo! Internet currency meets real world observation.

Lots of army trucks being seen on the outskirts of london tonight,I would imagine there is a stricter lockdown on the way very soon

I'm not surprised: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8127171/Boris-Johnson-hints-lockdown-London.html

I've seen instances before in which the older people cannot get vexed about, say, a tragedy that's befallen their family.

The MIL is 96 lives alone and isn't the least bit concerned about Covid 19, the wife is extremely worried about her laissez faire attitude, the FIL lost a lung in WW2 and was in recuperation in SA for a long time, he died in is early 60s after years of bad health, she lost a grandson to excessive drinking and liver disease, she has had numerous health issues and is a cancer survivor, I suppose at her age and experience lt is just another blip in a long journey.

ECB has asked for all club level cricket to stop indefinitely tomorrow they meet to talk about calling of 1st class games.
Not looking good now this outbreak is getting serious.

Daughter in law went to pick her car up from a minor repair tonight. £70. When they found she’s NHS, they said they’d waive the charge. I Struggled not to cry, lovely.

Shiphams doing well with the meat pastes for sure!

I thought my MiL was the only person who actually eats that stuff. I was wrong!
The week or two per year she's here, the cat goes mad every morning when she opens the jar for her breakfast as he thinks he must be in line for his second breakfast.

Are you a social media influenza ? Stop now, you’re a super spreader amongst your followers

I have not seen the woman in moving pictures for a wee while. Does she still have her natural resting face (contemptuous smirk) when facing awkward questions or have her PR staff coached her for a more sympathetic look?

It's a curious thing, but many of our favourties seem to have been conspicuous by their absence recently.

Not good at all. I wonder how many TMS podcasts are available on line?

McDonald's and burger king are now offering free hot and cold drinks free to NHS staff. (Only drive-through parts are open)
Not a bad way to start or finish your shift.

I do wonder if the attitude of those folk in Benidorm is simply because they feel removed from the situation because they are on holiday. It simply hasn't sunk in yet how serious things are. Nice bit of footage in the paper yesterday though of a British woman breaking the lock down and going for a swim in the hotel pool. Someone (police I guess), dived in and she was very roughly dragged out, dragged across the concrete, and cuffed.

Yeah, yeah, I know it's another tweet, but what do you want me to do, type it all out for you?

You really can learn about the meaning of soul-sick in that one.
