Water you talking about? I know posting ToD's is a tankless job, but it swimiscale nature lends itself thereto.

Going off course, of course, we should socially distance by one fathom, so much easier to remember than six feet or two metres.

That is risky!
The English term "fathom" and the Norwegian term "favn" has a common root, and was originally the distance between your fingertips when you stretch your arms straight out.
Problems occur with the modern use of "favn". In human relations, "å favne", "å omfavne", "å favne om" is to put your arms around someone, to embrace them (in a warm and heartily sense). "Jeg vil ta deg i min favn" (I will take you in my arms) is even closer, more protecting, like a parent holding around arms around his child. Definitely not any social distancing. Quite to the contrary.
Danish and Swedish have the same issue (although in Swedish I believe it is "famn"). So I thin we should rather stick to the kicking style of indicating distance.

Today's Special Offer Symptom: dizzy spells. Sit up, and you'd better sit down pretty quickly. Lie down, and the world s tarts to spin like I've had ten pints of beer ...
Still not eating - but I've found that Lime Squash seems to help with dehydration and doesn't "bounce". Herself is better than me in that regard, she can drink Complan (a meal substitute) - but she's now on Amoxicillin because of the blood that's coming up with her mucus.
Neighbours are being wonderful - so many offers of help with shopping it's unreal - though one couple are apparently considering murdering each other. We suggested she beat him to death with a frozen leg of lamb, cook it, and feed his remains to the dog / George's pigs...

As long as you're drinking (in the aquatic sense ), you should be OK. You can live without food a lot longer than you can without water.
Being susceptible to dehydration issues myself, I was told that ordinary Coca Cola (non-diet) is a good emergency rehydration fluid - available everywhere, and contains most of what the medical rehydration fluids contain, albeit in different concentrations. You might also try Gatorade or similar, if you can get it.
Herself's symptoms sound nasty. I hope that you both come through OK.

I told you: "Don't try Nagy medicine!".
Quote: We suggested she beat him to death with a frozen leg of lamb, cook it, and feed his remains to the dog / George's pigs...
I told you: "Nagy medicine abuse causes delirium".
I supposed it softer than that. Hope both of you will recover soon.

Hang in there both of you.
We are all thinking of you and hoping for the best.
I did hear today that a Welsh farmer was killed by a water buffalo.
I had no idea that you had these fellas over there.
Get better soon mate.
Hoping that the worst is over for you both.

I am no longer under quarantine! Watch out world!
I also got Hisself to pay to have our lawn mowed while we were stuck inside, so bonus.
Now if only I can work that into a regular thing. He has allergies (crybaby!) so it's typically my job to mow.

I thought you were a housecat even when not quarantined! Maybe being compelled to be one has changed you.

Yeah it's something about being not allowed out, but even though i'm agoraphobic i try to make myself walk at least once a day.

I make several walks every day. Between my recliner and the fridge, that is.

Get a cooler for your beer and park it next to the recliner. It will save you a lot of needless effort! 
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Don't you have some spare masks now?
He can wear one while mowing.

Hisself had the plague? And he's OK now? If so that's great news. Pass our best wishes to him.
And yourself? No badness happening other than .NET 1.x lack of generics? That's also great news. Good to hear you're OK.
cheers

I think we were both asymptomatic but we rent a room to a friend and he caught it.
