Or the people filing their teeth so get an asymmetrical smile on TikTok.
It's odd that social media driven stupidity is so easy to replicate - one person does it and they all do it, but if the Government try and use social media to drive home the dangers of a virus it completely fails to hit the target. It seems cretins only listen to other cretins, yet even cretins can tell a government cretin from other cretins.
I see panic buying has returned to London and to fuel it the Daily Mail has posted images of bare shelves. Lets hope this time the supermarkets don't cash in on the panic and actually enforce limited purchasing from the outset rather than wait till pensioners cannot get toilet paper for love nor money.

Observations re: London make me smile.Apparently London during the Blitz made those who lived there go slightly crazy and enact the similarly daft escapades that occurred on the M25. Crime levels were high and the Black Market thrived.
As a nation it appears from our lofty,mainly senior heights,that this generation’s fiddling hysterically before doomsday....as scripted by Messrs,Vallance & Whitty this morning......in a last gigantic knees up before lockdown.

I’ve just had a FaceTime call from my son who’s this morning returned to face his first group of students....all first years fresh to University in Newcastle....since March. He’s scared.
18 students in a hall seemingly well prepared by staff for the current situation. For now in chairs.One difficulty with that though.....he lectures practically in Performing Arts.
Like walking on eggshells.
