    Rumour from a ****ing idiot is that they are readying the guards and the army to impose a curfew in Limerick. I'm disregarding it as bollocks.

    Super Valu delivery is 20 minutes late. Not especially hopeful for it appearing.

    The Army Ranger Wing is commonly referred to as the "ARW". Wags in the defence forces also commonly refer to the acronym standing for "Army Rumour Wing". I wouldn't believe any kind of BS like that until I saw it happening.

    Meanwhile at Cheltenham


    And They’re off!

    Lucky Leo taking an early lead but does he have the distance? Followed closely by Social distance and Outbreak , Wuhan Lad is falling back now. Pan Demick out of Hor D’Or coming strongly from the rear but wait, taking the field by storm at the finish it’s Trolly Lady, Trolly Lady by a nose!

    I can't believe you're still banging this drum.

    So now it's Three, Vodafone and Virgin Media... WTH is this?! First the shops and now this. People calm down.

    https://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/three-ireland-down-network-mobile-21680775

    Not sure what's going on with Vodafone, but Virgin Mobile in Ireland is hosted on 3's network. So, if there's a technical issue with 3, there'll likely be a technical issue with Virgin mobile too as it's relying on most of the same infrastructure.

    I'd suspect it's coincidental rather than Coronavirus related.

    Although you may have a BIG uptick in people running traffic on networks during the day now with work-from home and bored at home and on netflix etc..

    I'd say what could be a slight issue is a lot of people who don't normally use home broadband, suddenly start to fire up their mobiles as WiFi hubs for their temporary home office.

    Thanks for your words and support, DrumSteve.
    It's not easy to read those words of appreciation towards us in these days.

    Keep the head up man.

    Italy will bounce back from this not a bother.

    Things are getting serious

    This is all really good to see. This shows our authority’s are really trying to stay ahead of this and trying to help our healthcare workers triage appropriately and to actually have somewhere to place patients. This is all the kind of stuff WHO have been talking about and we are doing it. If you watched the WHO conference yesterday they actually praised Ireland , they don’t praise countries lightly.

    BREAKING: The World Health Organization has announced that dogs cannot contract Covid-19. Dogs previously held in quarantine can now be released. To be clear, WHO let the dogs out.

    Things are going from bad to worse. My wife called in to the library to stock up with books in case they close , being 'cultural institutions'. The place was manic with people maxing their allowance of books.

    This is useful tool(even if a little long) to understand the numbers in this epidemic.

    That would mean strong, decisive leadership from the government which would also be unpopular for a small number of people.

    Its never going to happen.

    They will be let in, no checks or questions asked and unlikely to be told to self isolate until further notice.

    Sure we need the tourists, etc

    No idea why Vodafone may be having issues. Could be a knock on issue with 3 though e.g. queuing text messages or something that aren't going through.

    I wouldn't be that concerned though and don't think it's very likely to be anything to do with the thread although you might have a spike in call traffic in some areas if everyone's trying to text from the same Lidl

    3 is crap at the best of times. Vodafone not so sure.
