The world's eyes will be watching you mate If guidelines are followed then don't see it a problem Fact is we all got to get over the fright of catching it and keep on keeping on Perhaps the big numbers of mortalitys have past and any second wave of infections won't be so deadly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My dad had COPD for over 10 years before he croaked, but with this covid he would of been gone in a flash. Perhaps that's what's occurring at the moment mate ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My boy go’s back on the 15th.....but my daughter, the younger kids not straight way, so the little school is not too packed. We shall see, can’t say I’m not concerned, but something has to give at some point. Just hope it’s not too soon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Difficult times but as said we'll have to front it out sooner or later. Hopefully vaccines kick in and don't have side effects or at least they suss out treatment and have plenty of gear. I think this is going to be a long game, hopefully we don't lose too many more to it . When I can't buy food I'll be working again , be a while yet although food bills are crazy atm as we're without school dinners and generally cook breakfast so the kids have fuel for the allotment.....tough decisions but it's mostly down to personal circumstances Kids get through some food under these circumstances don’t they mate? My kids sometimes have a second breakfast then an hour later start asking about lunch ffs! I was really well organised first few weeks, but it’s a struggle to keep up now......there’s always something needs buying 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
