One flu over the cuckooâs nest
Picture please 
I love the yanks press conferences. Always a crowd gathered around nodding heads while the speaker is giving out info like the lick arse pupils who nod the head at school in agreement with the teacher while the teacher is giving out new information.
Just back from Tesco there.
Queues not as bad as previous days. There are people cleaning the screens of the self service machines after each customer.
For those of you with a sweet tooth, Cadburyâs Easter eggs are 2 euro each of 5 (five) for a fiver.

I will not be in the least bit surprised to see Ronald McDonald make an appearance in one of Trumps briefings sooner rather than later.

Trump: âWeâre looking at it very seriously, yes. Theyâve had more activity unfortunately. Actually, weâve looked at it and we will be doing thatâ.
This is the kind of decisive action that the WHO official was referencing earlier.

The Trump regimeâs response to Coronavirus has been the worst of any government in any industrialised country in the world.
This is obviously a very hard fact for some people to take.

Pubs/Restaurants
Iâve spent the past 48 hours speaking to a lot of local publicans and restaurant owners and each and every one of them have concerns for the well being of staff and customers.
Those Iâve spoken to are small businesses with small numbers of staff.
My own belief is they should close but once again a complete lack of clarity from Government has put the decision back on each individual business owner.
What is the point in your local publican who cares for their customer closing but yet a super pub next door fills the premises? What is the point of a local restaurant closing yet a nightclub allows 100s in later that night?
Similar to the parades where initially only Dublin was cancelled, this delay and drip feed of information is doing more to cause panic and concern for workers and small business owners.
The Government need to confirm that there will be a rates freeze. Insurance companies need to ensure a rebate will be issued if the risk reduces to just fire and theft on a premises whilst its closed. Banks need to reassure customers that they wonât be affected negatively if they cannot make payments.
The only reason for delays here is greed.
Iâm saying all week we need leadership on this to clarify to small business owners that closing their doors wonât be the end of them and that they will have Government supports.
Letâs not have the tail wagging the dog here, our Government need to be strong with those various stakeholders and be supportive of the local establishment that will ultimately close their doors for a period of time.
If we donât act and allow pubs fill for St Patrickâs Day this past few days of social distancing will have been a waste of time.
I will continue to try get clarity on the issues raised with me

If you were registering 51 on your speedometer, you were doing no more the 48kph. Speedeometers are set to register up to 5kph more than actual speed. Youâre fine

I was registering 54 so I reckon I was doing 51.
Be fine, youâd need to be 60km/h + on your Speedo to be worrying.
