Just hope non of his relatives catch the virus he then might change his tune selfish little sod. Expand Having met Dan Bewley on numerous occasions, I've never known him be winging (or even whinging) about anything. He's a laid-back kid with a great attitude. Like all self-employed people in the country I'm sure he's worried about not having any work and an income, but if he's not sharing paranoid hysteria, and is retaining a sense of humour, then good on him. At a time of crisis I'd rather be in it with someone with a sense of humour like Dan, than a humourless moaning sod like DBP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 I had a look at Dan Bewley's twitter and see that he posted a video from David Icke. Thinking it would be a right laugh, I thought I'd have a look. Imagine my surprise to discover that Mr Icke was echoing my own experience of having a virus earlier in the year with the exact same symptoms to the letter. Meaning that either this virus has been in the UK longer than reported or there was another, identical virus, going round. I remember at the time thinking that what I had would probably have probably killed my frail mother if she was still around. Does this mean that Tony Blair and George W Bush were alien lizards after all? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richspeedway Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Grachan this is exactly what we have all been saying where I work as before Christmas I camedown with a mild flu and everyone else had the same thing and it came on very suddenly and after it went it did take a little to fully shake off (cough and sneezes and bad head) We all think the same that maybe that was possibly this virus and it came over earlier than they have been saying and possibly did not say anything at the time as they thought it was just a winter flu that we get most years.

In my opinion, globally, it has become an over blown hysteria. I blame the hysteria on the media and social media, which have both put severe pressure on the worlds governments. If this had happened, say, 10 or 20 years ago, when social media was still in its infancy, it would have been in the news yes, but not wall to wall and 24/7 and it would have been another seasonal virus that we needed to dodge, if possible. But the Genie is out now and God help us all! The worry for me, is not so much the virus, but the way man has reacted across the world. Two words worry me, civil unrest Expand Are you for real. Practically every country near lock down, no control of a virus that can kill people and could be carried by the others, no known antidote unlike the likes of flu, the countries finances in ruins and businesses going to the wall, all entertainment and groups banned, countries closing borders and you think it's just hype by the social media.

Why is it people like you, say people are speaking garbage when you don't agree with something? I know why, because you are silly old know it all and your contributions on the BSF over the years have proved that, certainly to me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
