    A bit irrelevant to the families, but any idea if either or both had known underlying health issues?

    Can't see anything anywhere either. Hope it's fake news.

    Just awful. Having a foot in both camps I watch the confirmed cases for Barnsley and kirklees. I know it's only an indication but I've noticed Barnsley has overtaken kirklees and it has a much smaller population. Sadly the statistics can't tell personal stories though

    Yeah, kirklees on 33 with 450,000 population, only thing I can think of is it's more rural

    Local people are now dying, the few on here who were playing it down a few weeks ago have disappeared.

    I took that to mean that it's someone he knows through Facebook as they share a love of bikes rather than it being someone he knows locally. Not that it makes any difference it's still terrible news

    Yes and Kirklees covers many different areas. They should give the total breakdown for Kirklees into Huddersfield, Dewsbury etc.

    I know you're trying to be clever again pal, but I'll not bother with you. Read the China and Italy threads, you'll see a few posters.
