You have my utmost respect - police and hospital staff are certainly the most relied on workforce during this time but largely unappreciated, even now.

Yeah I forgot. Sadly heard my philipino aunt's dad sadly passed away from this virus. Her mum got it but survived it. 

I'm sorry to hear that, the death toll seems to keep rising I just hope that before it gets too high they find a vaccine and then in future it can be included in the yearly flu shots.  But this is worrying because even if you are protected against what we know exists it doesn't help when something new comes out of the blue.

What with me being out on 12 - 14 hour shifts and Wifey working on our local Covid-19 amber & red wards we ain't seeing much of each other.
Tbh I'm more likely to get it than Wifey is as at least she's wearing scrubs, gowns, disposable aprons, gloves and masks / visors whereas I'm just disposable gloves (if I have to touch anyone).

I like Greggs....a lot.
Went in for breakfast in uniform and they gave me a bacon & sausage bap (with extra bacon too ) and a coffee for £2.
Greatly appreciated.

Greggs are closing as well!   I thought takeaways would be considered essential tbh.

You'll have to take a Lunchable at this rate!

On the plus side, at least raids will be easier now everyone has to stay at home!  Burglaries should be down too!  

Closing?
Noooooooooooo!!! ####!

Yep, they're closing tonight.  McDonalds closed yesterday.  KFC, Costa, Starbucks, Nandos and Pizza Express are all closed or closing as well.

Takeaways are allowed to stay open as essential shops but so many are closing now.  I know you could make a sandwich and flask of coffee at home but I think a bit of convenience is helpful for key workers, drivers etc!

What a pain.
I don't have the luxury of a convenient fridge to keep sandwiches fresh all night so a cheeky drive through is the norm.
I guess I could blow the dust off an old cool bag with an ice pack in.
FML.

Like going to Waitrose with clear roads, and full shelves (except eggs)!

Maybe the panic buying is coming to an end...  Lets hope!

Or maybe the panic buyers just can't afford Waitrose...

True!!

I do like not having to shave if I'm not leaving the house...  Once the home working thing gets set up and I'm in the house for days on end I may end up looking like a hobo by the end of it!!!

I do like that after saying this morning they'd have to cancel and didn't know when/if they'd get to me, Autoglass turned up unannounced about 2 hrs after they were originally due.

They had a nurse to help out first but I was only round the corner so came and did me after.

Glad it's sorted, looks good as new, they've done a great job.

Yes!!

I do like getting to Tesco first thing this morning and actually managing to get almost everything on my list (even pasta, rice and toilet paper! ), plus filling up the tank with 111.9p per litre diesel...

I hate the feeling of stubble let alone beard...I'll still shave every other day whether I'm going out or not.  It's yet another bodily function I would prefer not to have, my mouth doesn't get cold, stop growing so much damn hair on it!!  

Every other day? I could file wood with my face by 5pm shaving every day. 😅

I try to half the wear on the foil by only doing it every other day!  Plus, I probably don't have huge amounts of testosterone!!

Lol I like to have a bit of a beard but recently now I don't like it getting a little long. I get this feeling that after I ate if there is any bits of food left on the chin hair or oil residue. I know there's nothing there but I just get this feeling like there is. 

Also went asda and it was quiet in the top floor

Shame about the C*rsa ruining the picture 😛

I do like how warm my house is despite the heating only coming on for less than 2 hours this morning.  Plus it is bright sunshine outside so I can sit here looking out of the window and imagine it is summer...
