One of my favourite Farside cartoons is the one where a chicken is in bed with the flu and his wife brings him a bowl of soup and says:
Firstly - chicken soup is good for the flu. Secondly - It's no one we know!

Tomasz insisted that we should stock up the cupboards in case we have to isolate ourselves while he is here.

He went into Tescos last night...and came out with 200 sausage rolls, 100 cucumber sandwiches, 100 bags of crisps and 25 bottles of lemonade.

I looked at him and said "What the f*ck do we want with that lot?!"

He said "Well, it was YOU that told me that everyone had been PICNIC buying."

In this news article about Judd Trump winning the Gibraltar Open World Ranking Snooker tournament:

"This week's tournament started off as one that was limited to a crowd of fewer than 100 people but midway through it was changed to going behind closed doors.

Then came the news that one or two referees had become ill and were unable to take charge of matches and the sport had the farcical scenes where players were refereeing their own contest - Chinese player Liang Wenbo was picking the balls out of pockets for opponent James Cahill and vice-versa
."
