WTF happened at 0547hrs 23.01.2020?
« on: March 28, 2020, 06:56:24 AM »
They have just been talking on the news about people doing different things due to the Covid crisis and were saying because there were no pubs to go out to, some were setting up "Virtual Pubs" (© Barman) to meet their friends and socialise

This made me look at the statistics for the group expecting to see a recent spike in visitors. The most visitors occurred 0547hrs 23.01.2020  rubschin:



A quick Google ( http://www.wincalendar.com/Calendar-UK/date/23-January-2020 ) shows the headlines of the day as...
