Test drive to Barnard Castle. Who wrote this shit.

And that couldn't have happened in London?
Perhaps not. The threshold for hospital admittance in London was temporarily changed because London was so badly hit and struggling with the numbers of ill patients.

I said yesterday. I suspect that's the real reason why he took his family out of London. He knew there was more chance of timely treatment elsewhere.

Not surprised his child became sick. He was exposed, for a long time, at very close confined quarters with someone who was sick and this illness can be spread by droplet infection.

GrimmsFairytales · 25/05/2020 16:43

So he also went to the bluebell woods.

It's all true.

janet1267 · 25/05/2020 16:43

I was feeling sorry for him and thought he was giving a credible explanation until he got to the Barnard Castle bit.

knittingaddict · 25/05/2020 16:43

What was the bullshit excuse?

Not watching. Sorry.

1forsorrow · 25/05/2020 16:43

It took them quite a while to come up with the story didn't it.

minsmum · 25/05/2020 16:43

So his wife who definitely had the virus went to the hospital with his son

tootyfruitypickle · 25/05/2020 16:43

StayAlert · 25/05/2020 16:43

Cailleach1 · 25/05/2020 16:43

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 16:43

Roussette · 25/05/2020 16:43

Is he trying to bore us so much that we'll just give up?

Seriously, this is complete and utter bollocks

Who goes off driving 30 miles if they can't see properly?!

HatRack · 25/05/2020 16:43

Top trolling Dom

vera99 · 25/05/2020 16:44

They've spent a long time making this up. Fuckers.

This is such bollocks

tootyfruitypickle · 25/05/2020 16:44

ParkheadParadise · 25/05/2020 16:44

What a load of bullshit

1forsorrow · 25/05/2020 16:44

Why would you go on a 30 mile drive if you thought your eyesight was affected.

Justyou · 25/05/2020 16:45

Did he say he drove to test his eyesight?? If he was worried he shouldn’t have drove at all never mind 30 minutes as a test!!

vera99 · 25/05/2020 16:45

My eyesight was a bit shit so I got in the car and drove

NewAccountForCorona · 25/05/2020 16:45

Their exchanges included two infected people going to a hospital in an area with low infection rates Shock

"No exchanges with anyone else" is just a lie.

Cailleach1 · 25/05/2020 16:45

He had exceptional circumstances. He is the special one.
