I suppose I needn't fear not being able to get my oestrogen supplies due to panic buying.

I don't think the average male would like the side effects! :o)

[andrewducker]

If it meant I was able to take some of the breast feeding duties off of Jane I'd be very interested!

[cmcmck]

Lactation can certainly be one of the side effects. :o)

I fear that playing the Italy game may turn out to have been a mistake.

[andrewducker]

Playing the Italy game?

[danieldwilliam]

In the Six Nations.

We played Italy in Rome just before the restrictions were imposed.

Since then one of the people involved in the women's team has tested positive. I fear lots of our travelling support may actually have been exposed to the virus.

[andrewducker]

Yes. I know at least one person who self-isolated when they returned from Italy.

I'm sure it was a major vector for virus entry into the UK.
