I got a positive test result this morning. 17:23 - May 15 with 16645 views | Pecker | I received the news that I gave a positive test on Thursday. I have none of the symptoms and feel absolutely fine, but 7 days isolation ahead. No idea where or how, as they are really careful at the hospital and I only go shopping once a week. Just as some of the restrictions have been lifted as well. I am sure the Wife and I will be fine, but have to have no contact with the outside world for 7 days. I shall stay off here as much as I can, as not to annoy the hell out of you all. Take care and stay safe. Edit: It was suggested that my original post was misleading or a lie by one respected and prominent member, so I have corrected. Sorry for any confusion. I can assure you all that it was never my intention to mislead anyone. I hope you all know I would never lie about such a serious and life threatening virus. I shall stay off here for a while, as I am deeply hurt by the suggestion. Take Care Everyone and Stay Safe. [Post edited 16 May 2020 10:51]

It was only a matter of time but it seems that dear old footers QC has been proven right. My downvoters and detractors needn't apologise. It's very easy to get suckered in by such an obvious troll if you're not paying attention. But now Pecker is found out and the game is up. Where to now? |  |

Does Pecker not get a right of reply? Not saying you are wrong (or right) but Pecker may have something to say on the matters you highlighted. |  |

I tested positive this morning. on 20:01 - May 16 by jimmyvet | I don’t agree with Footers on much but one thing I know for sure is he is not daft ... and the account Peckers has given is odd at best and a strange fabrication and outright lie at worst from a troll or narcissistic. My daughter and son are both on the frontline and they have had zero test in 8 weeks and daughter has been in yellow zone working many times. Very odd a driver is tested daily ?? Maybe Pecker can add to this and if I am wrong I apologise and blame footers for his well thought through beliefs!! I also find it repugnant that somebody could come up with this type of rubbish so disrespectful to all those actually working under extreme risk daily in hospitals. |
MrsN, a midwife, has been tested once. She had to phone up and make an appointment. The hospital has a portacabin for only testing their staff. It took 2 days for an appointment. She was given an appointment because she had a new cough and had been in close contact with somebody that had come back from the Far East recently. Me. This was early March though. She still has a cough. She’s putting it down to her pregnancy sickness and reflux. She’s not enjoying pregnancy one bit. |  |

I tested positive this morning. on 19:18 - May 16 by footers | Daily tests aren't being carried out for doctors and nurses in that hospital. They are only tested if symptomatic, which Pecker said he wasn't. The idea that non-essential staff would be tested on a daily basis is far wide of the mark. And then there's the testing time. Pecker's OP implied it was a test taken on that day which came up positive. This is not possible under current conditions. It's nice you want to believe an avatar on the internet called Pecker who you don't know, but his story compared to what we know from real people on the frontline suggests it's full of holes. |
What I am saying is that *volunteer* drivers may be in a different category & come inder different regulations than regular, paid staff. And as I previously said re the timing, that could easily be just the kind of stupid mistake due to imprecision with language and/or tiredness that people make, happens on here all the time incl by myself. You can't make an alllegation as serious as that without expecting to be questioned about it. |  |

I'll tell you exactly what I think. There are 2 possibilities. 1. He is ill as described. So he could well not be considering twtd as all that important. 2. He is a fantasist, as described. In which case something isn't right in his head. In which case the Twtd massive piling in with glee could lead to something very unpleasant. I dont say that lightly. I know of a Hillsborough fantasist who was exposed for pretending he was a hero at the match, and then killed himself. So even if Pecker is a fantasist, I'd suggest letting it lie is a far more appropriate course of action rather than a public lets all pile in and shame the guy. There could be issues you and I know nothing of. |  |

His whole account was very odd and just didn’t add up however to make such a claim even if untrue is pretty disgusting. As before if he proves us wrong and can explain why a driver gets tested daily then I do apologise profusely and wish him and his family all the best. I fear he is a liar and complete narcissistic who should be banished and utterly ashamed of his behaviour. |  | |  |

OK, so sitters' sister in law who is an actual driver for that hospital isn't tested on a daily basis, and in fact has never had a test. I thought that counted as me being proven right? But no, maybe you're right. Maybe a poster called Pecker who's lied about being seriously ill for weeks before is actually a real person who's telling the truth and deserving of sympathy this time. Can I ask your mother's maiden name and your first pet's name too while we're at it? |  |

There are more options out there. 3. He's a troll. Possibly one who's posted on here before, might start with the same letter, who knows. |  |

Accept that. But can I suggest the mob stand down, because if there's even a 1 in 10 chance the guy is struggling with a mental illness then it really isnt a risk worth taking. Am sure Phil can wave the banhammer if appropriate. |  |

Sitters himself said that his sil is not a *volunteer* driver. I clearly stated that volunteers *may* come under different rules/regs. I do not like kangaroo courts on social or other media. And if you insist on holding one on here, we might as well try to establish *facts*. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned "innocent until proven guilty"? Not to mention what BlueLagos said, which I think overrides all the rest of our comments tbh. |  |

This whole discussion seems very distasteful when none of us are completely aware of his situation or in possession of the full facts. Whether you believe he is a fantasist or not, perhaps the dignified course of action would have been to keep your thoughts to yourself? Certainty seems very odd to trawl through a poster's history in this way. For his sake I hope he's not on twitter. [Post edited 16 May 2020 20:36]

BL, I listened to your expertise on Nigerian beer, now hear me out on Pecker. Very few will know him as well as I. Me and Pecker have been playing on here for a while. It's been somewhat entertaining. The back and forths, changes in styles, situations- been funny. For me anyway. One minute he's all high on pharmas, the next he's pretending to be Danny Dyer, then he's my best forum friend. The Random Capitalisation of words, frequent changes in subject and tone, very odd PMS - it all stacks up to a troll account. It's very funny at times and clearly knows what it's doing. But from that I'd politely suggest 'Pecker' isn't on the brink of some mental health crisis; he's having a laugh as another character. That character may be familiar to some of you as a certain vinegary individual who used to frequent these parts. |  |

Are you the same GlasgowBlue who's the board archivist that digs up posts from years ago in every other thread you post or another one? And indeed searches for threads when queuing for the cinema? But it's no surprise you believe obvious troll accounts when you were defending pickles. Lol. Remember that? |  |

I didn't defend anything Pickles ever posted. I thought it was poor form when your crowd pulled up threads on him being a landlord on a money advice site and I wasn't the only one who said so. You are getting a reputation for this sort of digging into people's lives. That you continue to do so is worrying. Edit. I'll leave it there as I have no wish to continue this conversation. Perhaps at least take on board the advice of posters like Ryory and Lagos. [Post edited 16 May 2020 20:50]

Would you agree that lying about testing positive for covid-19 would be an awful thing to do? From the evidence supplied it appears Pecker is lying. That is from frontline staff in the same hospital he's supposedly volunteering for. It's interesting that you want to take a swipe at me but not look at the evidence in front of you.
