I agree, but sadly we have a large section of our population who simply don't give a f*** about the rest of us.
Some strange people about, certainly
Example 1 - Some squaddies going to the local army camp late last night. Came out of the kebab shop, ate their stuff in the car, plus that extremely annoying sound of a drinks can opening, and left a couple of chips on the seat and some greasy marks. Also heard them licking their fingers during the trip
Nothing out of the ordinary there, obviously, but with the coronavirus?
And not particularly difficult to clean up with my leather clean spray but, I mean?
And didn't want a kick off, so didn't say anything, and it was a £20 run, which was more than I'd taken for the rest of the night
Example 2 - older PhD student type got in earlier, was from Mozambique but decided to stay here over summer and finish his thesis.
Started going on about coronavirus, antibodies, herd immunity, immunocompromised people, blah, blah. Sounded like he might be researching some kind of science subject.
Funny thing, though, he opened the back door and put a very small bag on the back seat. I assumed he would sit there, but he closed the door and then came in the front
And paid with a £5 note and some small change, obviously
But beggars can't be choosers, and all that

As evidenced by the scum hoarding food
In my defence, I've always kept a reasonable amount of food in reserve. Think I accelerated that a couple of years ago when couldn't get out for a few days because of the Beast from the East, and no bread, milk and suchlike in shops for a week or so (obviously chickenfeed compared to what's happening now, if you'll pardon the pun).
Also, nearest shop, takeaway etc about 6 miles away. An hourly bus service to St Andrews during the day, but nothing after 6pm.
