Best of luck, mate.

As fucked as it sounds, we really need to stay sane and safe, fellas.
There are a lot of fucking lunatics out there that are out now and we are really living one of the weirdest moment we faced.
But we will get through this.

And yeah, looking at City's best moments helps.

Well that's been the most surreal week ever. I've gone from having 15 learning disability guys come to the garden project I run to four. The four we have is because with out us they'd have no support or in one case so the lads primary carer can go organise a hospital so it's ready for what's coming this next two weeks.

My hands are so raw they are bleeding, if I lick them I'd get pissed!. I've made welfare phone call after phone call. Our gang know about the virus as they watch the news but they don't understand fully which as prompted some very emotional conversations.

Social Distance gardening with folks who are usually tactile is a mind fuck. But seeing as we cannot sell anything we have made loads of spring planters and put them outside Nursing Homes and local Ambulance station to give a little cheer.

Stay safe x

Thank you, I never posted for gratitude, that's deserved for the real front line health workers who are making life or death decisions of the people they are ventilating.

Containing and managing my parents from a distance as proved difficult. My mum will die if she gets it, she's already physical poorly and her heads going too. Last week before lockdown she was running round Aldi in a silly hat to try 'make people smile'. My dad? Now the pubs have shut he's decided to become a fucking Rambler!



So it's a proper mind fuck right now.

Stay safe folks. Please just do.

I threw a peasant on crutches a 20 dollar bill at the traffic lights the other day - I sped off before he got more than 5 meters away.

That's the sixth game in a row now the scouse have lost. Surely they must win two games before the season ends ? They appear to be on a slippery slope, if this goes on they're bound to bin Klipperty eh ?

Kev’s just knocked one in against Chelsea, 1-1, on a knife edge.
