    I'd say FOAD but you've already gone you waste of space.

          That may be easier said than done, because the snag is none of us knows where Dimprawn lives!

              A hotel near Heathrow airport has been closed to the public and designated as a potential coronavirus quarantine centre as health officials prepare for more cases in the UK.

              The Holiday Inn Heathrow Ariel hotel, on Bath Road, closed on Saturday with staff told it would not re-open for bookings until March at the earliest.

              Sources told The Independent the hotel has been block booked as a potential quarantine zone for international visitors to the UK who develop coronavirus or for Britons evacuated to the UK from overseas.

              Sounds like a sensible plan. Is the hotel large enough to cater for 70m sufferers?

                The other question might be "wtf is the use of gold if it's the end of the fecking world"?

                You can't eat it.

                You could make bullets out of it if you've run short of lead.

                It's no good for shooting werewolves since you need silver for that.

                HTH.

                    No need. The Holiday Inn has been converted into a human meat rendering plant to supply the Thistle Hotel breakfast buffet.

                      David Abel, the British tourist who has provided updates while quarantined on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, says he and his wife Sally have been tested positive for coronavirus.
                      The passenger wrote in a Facebook post that it would be a "time of quiet" after being "proved positive".
                      But he later said in a comment to friends that he "doubted" whether the test was positive.
                      He also said he had shown no symptoms.
                      In a subsequent post he added that he "smelled a rat" and believed there was a conspiracy to keep passengers quiet.
                      His son Steve later appeared on BBC Breakfast and said he is also in the dark about what is going on and he feared his parents may become separated in Japan.
