This coronavirus shit is so depressing. Gonna cheer myself up with some Joy Division, Sylvia Plath and Ingmar Bergman. State of the Nation? Superheated confusion behind closed doors. Song of joy some distant memory working overtime.

What's it like for you in Italy Michael? People are going daft in the supermarkets in LDN. The news has suggested that people aren't doing silly stockpiling in Italy despite what's happened there.

After idiots stockpile foods at the supermarket, so theres fook all being available for the old folk, in a weeks time Everything’s Gone Green.

For Americans heading to The Beach in their thousands, avoid this Temptation because this virus will hit you Sooner Than You Think unless you Face Up to the Truth.

Stay with You in Isolation Behind Close Doors and find Salvation.

Things desperate in ASDA the other night. All the dumb greedy people had emptied the shelves. I couldn’t even get a loaf of bread. Interesting how quickly society descends into chaos in a matter of days.

Think I’ll find myself a copy of Stephen King’s The Stand and go and self isolate

John Lennon’s widow wrote to me for therapy to overcome her tragic loss. I replied:

‘Sometime in New York City, Borrowed Time Dear Prudence – Aisumasen (I’m sorry), Dear Yoko, Good morning, good morning. Yes it is Good day Sunshine, Hello Little Girl, from me to you. Bless you, You are here! Forgive me (my little flower Princess) I imagine out the blue it’s so hard you’re crippled inside isolation. Nobody loves you when you’re down and out, not even Her Majesty, so stand by me and carry that weight. Oh Yoko! God! Oh my love, how do you sleep? How? Whatever gets you through the night? Do you twist and shout, Scared? Do you want to know a secret I want to tell you, woman? Remember I'm stepping out cos there’s a place to cry, baby, cry – yah yah – while my guitar gently weeps too, wtaching the wheels. Think for yourself, for no one else within or without you, of cold turkey. I found out - nobody told me - it’s easy if you try, yeah yeah yeah! No beef jerky, savoy truffle, honey pie (even wild honey pie) and it’s just like starting over free as a bird, because, girl, all you need is love so we all shine on. Just give me some truth! Well, well, well, this’ll please please me and please Mr Postman, who doesn’t mind games, and I don’t mean Mr Mustard, just a jealous guy. I'm losing you so Goodnight. I don't know why you say hello. I say goodbye. Real love, love love love, Doctor Robert Yesterday Strawberry fields back in the USSR to New York City’s Attica State, via Penny Lane (Meat City) The End. PS I love you… Here comes the son, so love you too as you come together, Mother’s beautful boy (darling boy). She loves you. Love me do, this boy, just because I’m mother nature’s son and my mummy’s dead.’

Jul are you the lady who used to work for Warners? You and the American girl used to be the regular female members of the forum, right? Your worst earthquake in 140 years. That sucks. I understand some people can't hide away from the virus now because their homes aren't safe, especially appartment blocks. Horrible. The meteorite on 29th April will probably miss earth. I don't know if that helps...

Nope, I'm Croatian, used to be a regular in mid- 00s, before and during Sirens era. We actually did have a meteorite (albeit small and fairly insignificant) explode over Croatia and Slovenia on February 28th. Yesterday evening I went to walk the dog in my backyard and heard a buzzing sound and honestly for a moment thought that's it, locusts are here - turned out someone was filming rooftop damage with a drone.
