I got an email from them saying they had face masks in stock. Packs of ten for £30 and 50 for £102
Face Masks Priced Per Pack | Downlights Direct

Given that I had a call from a mate the other day frantically checking who had spare dustmasks from DIY etc (basically anything) for his frontline nurse girlfriend who said the hospital are almost down to zero stock, I'm disgusted.
Surely if they have a supplier, they should be telling their local NHS trust etc?
Supply and demand I get. If you buy the latest iPhone and sell it the next day for double then who cares, but there are people dying out there due to no PPE.
We've taken over my father in laws care, (fortunately) because some of the family are not working at present and also because the carers had no masks etc available. What about the key workers relying on carers for family members who still don't have masks?
Sorry folks, rant over, but felt I had to share.
 
Based upon that glowing endorsement I can’t be arsed to watch it - but you’ve got to love the irony, the very people who have houses and land big enough to not go stir crazy bouncing around the couple of rooms they have. These are folks who could probably confine themselves to a different room every day of the lockdown, and still not get round every room of their houses.
 
Listened to some Stranglers over breakfast this morning, good memories. If you take the keyboards out they could be one on many bands in that era.
 
So this afternoon I said "Alexa, play me the best of the Stranglers"
So far had..
  • No More Heroes
  • 5 Minutes
  • Golden Brown
  • Hanging Around
  • (get a) Grip (On Yourself)
  • Big in America
  • European Female
  • 96 Tears
  • Sometimes [sounds just like no more heroes..]
  • Walk on By
  • Go Buddy Go
  • Goodbye Toulouse
  • Princess of the Streets

Not bad choices so far

But HGV drivers can sleep anywhere in their cabs!

How does it work if you are an essential worker and have to work remote miles from home/work base, can you overnight in a camper? No hotels open I understand. I bet that would puzzle the authorities.
