If the 2 weeks behind italy thing was correct we should have passed 1000 today so looks like it is progressing more slowly over here How's your symptoms mate?

It'd be a bit weird for us as we're key workers but the Mrs was sent home from working in the Wrexham Maelor Hospital yesterday for 7 days with a brutal cough, hot and cold flushes. I went into work this morning (delivery driver for Tesco) and let them know about her situation and they instantly sent me home for 14 days. We both feel like shit for not being able to do our part and help out now. The last few weeks, whilst hard has been insanely rewarding. I've delivered to many OAP's who are stuck in their homes now and it was great being able to bring them some relief, supplies and human interaction. The temptation to not mention the other half's situation was there but if she does have it and I was carrying it around and inadvertently passed it on to the most vulnerable, I don't know how I'd live with it. Hopefully 2 weeks time I can get back out there and do my part again and her cough is hopefully just a bad cold and she can get back to it too. 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brumerican Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Wow. Whole street out clapping whilst singing "null and void" over and over. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Loads of clapping in the streets around here, my missus wanted to go out for a look. It was quite nice to hear so many people give a standing ovation. I haven’t clapped in unison with strangers since the old days of football matches. my rendition of my old man said, didn’t get much appreciation though... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ever there is a time to be locked in your house i guess this is probably the best time of year to do it, Not too hot, not too cold so don't need central heating or fans to try and stay at a comfortable temp. Bit of sunshine & generally warm enough to sit in the garden if you have one. Would be far less fun doing this in the middle of summer/winter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekka Posted March 26, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted March 26, 2020 That made me a tad emotional. I live in a large apartment complex (surrounding communal gardens) and the sound was immense. I am proud at this moment - we will beat this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid4ever Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 To all those asking about supermarkets, my daughter is store manager for one of the big 4, and advises me that unless you want compost and ice pops then you should be ok. They were the most popular items sold in her store today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
