Wasp, have a read of my post from 8:52 this morning and it will tell you all you need to know in that regard.

Also, please ignore my 7:54 post about MM and Covid-19 as minutes later the bugger released an RNS. Why can't they get them out for 7:00?

In the light of the current climate and the effect it's had along with plant issues, the April tonnage competition must be declared null and void, even our "man on the ground...HAH" Boythorpe ( joker more like) was miles out. All things considered, I won't offer any more for fun comps as they get blown out of the water by unseen events.

Morning all. I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but there is a possibility that MM himself has been laid low with Covid-19 and has been too unwell to attend to the tasks in hand. The question is, should that be the case, who will be responsible for running the company and would the PR company put out an announcement to that effect? A scenario such as this could be the reason for the lack of news on recommencing production at LP and no mid April update?

I suppose our blue run had to come to an end eventually. Hopefully it will return tomorrow if MM can get an RNS out for 7:00 with good production figures and some GLOD NEWS......please!!

One in, niece had baby boy 8ib 9oz, mother and child both fine, father, weeelll, you fathers out there will know how he feels!
Sadly, my carer friend tells me another resident has passed away, life's status quo preserved.

Stealthy, so sorry to hear about your mum's passing. The fact that you're having to stay away makes things so hard for you, it's tragic and all very sad. Good luck with your quest regarding the CCP though.

Thanks Safety. Although (technically) not having had those c sections, happily, it appears that you don't bear any emotional scars from those events?

My niece is having her baby by C section today. Unfortunately, due to the current circumstances, it will be a quick in and out, no messing so hope all goes as it should? So that'll be one in, however, I've just messaged my friend who is a carer in a nursing home, and she has intimidated that they have lost 13 out of 28 elderly folk, 2 passing yesterday alone. If this is the picture in care homes everywhere, then goodness knows what the final death toll will be? Scary outlook I'm afraid to say.

SS, I forgot to say that I hope you feel better soon?

SS, most of the ladies I've known usually have something handy for those chilly nights and appears Woosie has his own take on that?

Soulsister, where did that come from? I've never been unkind to you, the opposite in fact. I apologise most sincerely if my reference to myself being as soft as a fluffy jumper you may or may not own has caused you offence, as I hold you in high regard. I guess It was just a flippant remark I intended to be seen on a lighter note in these strange times. I assure nothing personal was intended.

Good to hear that Safety, I hope your uncle makes a full and speedy recovery.

I don't think MM will be able to write an RNS until he can get his Letraset back off the kids!

Only on the outside Troa, inside, I'm as soft as one of Soulsisters fluffy jumpers!!

Only a little rise though, still, be grateful for small mercies, especially at my age!!

Lucy the BBC weather presenter keeps referring to "Home grown sunshine". Does anyone know how that could be? Perhaps it's cultivated in Bob's allotment?

Whoopee, my paper loss is now only 5 figures as opposed to 6. Will be counting down the loss figures (hopefully) as I among many others, sit, stand or lie in solitude waiting for this damn virus to peak then slowly wane.
So, "A Happy Easter" to all true Wressers, stay safe, stay well, stay in this over this long weekend and we'll see if the rise continues from Tuesday onwards?

Troajan, it's more than 4 days on the trot as the SP was up most of last week as well, i think it was 4 days in a row then, Tuesday to Friday. If I'm correct then 7/8 days of unbroken rises.....and that must be a record?

Morning Soulsister, nice to know you're okay. Yes, it would be nice to hear some good news, I think we need something to lift our spirits. Went shopping this morning and the queue supervisor was trying to get a Mexican wave started, saying that anyone who didn't join in, goes to the back of the (long) line. Unfortunately, the first person in line was an elderly lady in her 80's and probably couldn't get her arms up even if she knew what a Mexican wave was? Anyway, nowt happened so the bloke gave up trying. It's the thought what counts innit?
