Just heard all McDonald's restaurants are to close at 7pm tomorrow. How are all the poor people going to get fed? Who is going to teach them to cook fresh food? I suppose they will have to drown their sorrows with Corona.
Oops, its all gone.

Just stop your crying
It's a sign of the times
Welcome to the final show
Hope you're wearing your best clothes
You can't bribe the door on your way to the sky
You look pretty good down here
But you ain't really good
If we never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
Just stop your crying
It's a sign of the times
We gotta get away from here
We gotta get away from here
Just stop your crying
It'll be alright
They told me that the end is near
We gotta get away from here
Just stop your crying
Have the time of your life
Breaking through the atmosphere
And things are pretty good from here
Remember everything will be alright
We can meet again somewhere
Somewhere far away from here
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?

Stop your crying
Baby, it will be alright
They told me that the end is near

We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
We never learn, we been here before
Why are we always stuck and running from
The bullets?
The bullets
We don't talk enough
We should open up
Before it's all too much
Will we ever learn?
We've been here before
It's just what we know
Stop your crying, baby
It's a sign of the times
We gotta get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to get away
We got to, we got to (away)
We got to, we got to (away)
We got to, we got to (away)

Yes, but they'll be grovelling for our money once this crisis is over. Me? I'll go abroad.

Looking down the stories linked to that one it seems the target of this abuse bought a bit of the local beach a few years ago. To safeguard it.
Maybe there's someone with a grudge in the area.
It is sad nonetheless.

On a par with the hard of thinking who attacked a paediatrician when paedophilia hysteria was at its height. Assuming the facts behind his reasoning is accurate, I think he probably got it right.

I predict a newspaper headline:

That must have cost a few bob to produce! Where did you see it.
Its quite amusing, but misses the point that both Devon and Cornwall rely on tourist income, and some tourists have long memories.

Quite- that's why I'll be off to a Costa de something. Cheaper too, and the locals will be glad to see you

Well spotted that man:
Famous Devon beach sold for £70,000
Speaking about the purchase of the local beach by Willis:
"Senior auctioneer Graham Barton said after the sale: "It is not a romantic purchase. Someone has a commercial eye on something happening there. "
Often more in these stories than meets the eye.

Errr sorry to disappoint everyone, but this came from a post on FB. I suspect Photoshop. I think it's maybe a wry comment on the tourist boards of Devon and Cornwall asking people to stay away. My apologies if my attempt at humour missed the mark.

Before we flame the whole County.
That sign appears to be erected on the the verge of Bumpkin Lane which leads from Under Udder to Lower Backwater.

Indeed and post 14 tells us it is a virtual sign; not a sign at all.
Like Macbeth's dagger, it is of the mind.

A bit off topic and a year ago. But this one is/was real.
