My heart is good 👍, didn't wear it out, just broke it and then it was fixed 😎 as in my oil pump is good it was split oil line that caused the breakdown

Recently been working on improving my induction system and a bit of lightweighting too

Row over 7k in 30 mins everyday, will ramp it up to 45 mins, after 3 weeks I'm 116km into crossing the Atlantic, only 4539km to go 😲 hoping to get across late next year 😢

British police to have powers to arrest covid-19 patients not self-isolating

Ministers are planning to give police in the UK the power to arrest people with coronavirus who are not self-isolating, the health secretary has confirmed.

Because.... 

 Significant disruptions need high population compliance. People already can’t be trusted to buy toilet roll properly

Lack of ventilators in the UK 'consequence of NHS under-funding', BMA says

The chairman of the British Medical Association, Dr Chaand Nagpaul, has suggested that sustained cuts left the UK’s public healthcare system far more unprepared than other European countries at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak.

He said the UK’s relative lack of ventilators was “a result of a decade of under-funding” and urged the government to provide “clear, decisive plans” to ensure that healthcare workers can provide the care patients need. 

Happy now ? Tory voters 🙄

On Friday numerous UK factories went into emergency shut down / sent everyone home for a long weekend including one of our clients in the North East, they are going to reassess by Tuesday but hard to see that they will return to business as usual at that time: they have implemented a total logistics stop in and out, and a site that normally has five or six hundred staff was down to security only.

I’m no Tory ( I loath most politicians)  but this is a ridiculous statement.   How would any health system predict that we specifically needed loads of ventilators?  

Do you think that if this virus resulted in people losing a leg, we would have enough crutches and replacement limbs to go round?

This isn’t a time for political point scoring.
