  1. This money could be spent on so much more in this country, that's not counting the amount that is been sent put annually already. Next thing we'll hear, the Irish government has set up a go fund me page for China. You really couldn't make this up. Atb j
  2. I do that on a regular basis, to keep the neighbours stay away from me LOL Atb j
  3. Scary, you'd have to anxious and worried about it. My daughter went to the city today to pick up a few bits and pieces. Said it wasn't to bad at all, but she had gloves, masks hand sanitizer the works, even before she got out of the car. Atb j
  4. Everything you said there makes perfect sense. I just have a romantic view on how I'd like to see my and other countries ran and work for themselves. Realistically it will never happen, every country is now to dependent on another, and to try and go it alone would be pure suicide. But there is ways that countries can make things a bit better for them selfs, move investment in employment, infrastructure, health care law enforcement ect ect. Atb j
  5. This is the point I was trying to make the other day. Make our own equipment for our own medical supplies and staff, not just for now, but for all time. Not just medical supplies, but anything else we can produce at home, do it. We have the infrastructure and bodies to make it happen. I know cost is a factor as chid pointed out, and he's right, so who ever is pricing these costs should recalculate it. Atb j
  6. Since your own cat is not up plumbing, get a fella like this, at least he will feed you, and retrives and soft mouthed. ???? Atb j
  7. There's two American factories here that make medical supplies. My brother works in one and my niece in the other. Great jobs they say, great money and benefits.. If an American company can come over here to open up a factory, why can't our government do the the same thing, make the same product and sell them. Atb j
  8. True, But where do we draw the line and say stop looking for the cheaper option, and pay for quality products. Atb j
  9. Why can't we make our own, I'm sure it couldn't take much to set up some sort of factory to make face masks at least. And go from there. In stead of paying China or some other places, pay our own to make them. Atb j
  10. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-52092395 Bloody hell, that's terrible. This could have caused an untold amount of deaths. Atb j
  11. If you like the viking kind of thing, you should read Joe Abercrombie books. I found brillant, but you must read all 3 books. Atb j
  12. I enjoyed that book. Also John Connelly is another good writer, good gritty detective novels. Atb j
  13. Peaky blinders Is it worth watching. Has any one seen it. Atb j
  14. Some way to pass the lock down lol Atb j
  15. Can't find anything on that Francie. Checked all the Dublin news, nothing came up. Maybe Pete might know more, he lives up there Atb j
  16. The people that died today were in the south and the East. Nothing in the west yet. Atb j
  17. No didnt see that Will have to look for it. I know 14 more died today RIP. The toll is raising every day now. Atb j
  18. It's easy to loose it in a situation like that. If it was a person, (and yes there is people out there who this kind of thing for some reason) you would, and rightly so, flake the tar out of them, but an animal, they don't know any better, and you would regret it weather someone was there or not. Well I would anyway. Every cloud has a silver lining, just think of the remodelling lol. Atb j
  19. Can't see the appeal myself. Wonder was it a man made virus, relaxed by the Chinese, or mother nature tell us to cop on or else. Atb j
  20. The big cats one looks interesting. Might give it a read. Atb j
