jmurray01 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I don't like it being Friday night which usually means having a bottle of wine and watching a movie, but because I haven't worked since Monday every night since then has been like that!! So no idea what I'll do other than the same thing again probably Never mind I might have liver failure by the end of this lock down but at least I won't have COVID-19... 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turvey Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Try to enjoy your enforced time off, not easy I know. Get out in the fresh air, go for a walk..... responsibly of course. I've just contacted my work and have decided that due to health issues, MS, I won't be returning for the foreseeable future....12 weeks being the recommended time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtulip8 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Don’t like going to start the car, only to be greeted with a completely flat battery. Gonna charge it up, but might be time for a new one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that's a good idea given the circumstances. Well hopefully (I use that word loosely) I'll be working from home from Monday if they can get the system to work from my house, but I could still go for a walk round the village before or after and of course on weekends. Being a habitual driver I am struggling with not being behind the wheel every day!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna charge it up, but might be time for a new one. If it has gone flat for no apparent reason then yes it will likely be new battery time... I suspect at the end of this lock down there will be a lot of flat batteries as people just aren't driving as much so any battery slightly weak will go if left for long periods of time.

Turvey Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Just been for a 20 minute walk with Mrs Turvey, didn't realise I was so unfit!!! Can see this enforced home time might be a good time to start going out for a decent walk and getting the legs and lungs in decent order. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I have done a few jobs in the garden , but after 30 mins I loose interest and go in for cuppa tea and packet of biscuits. Never eaten so much food during the day. Then by early afternoon I hit the raspberry vodka, still on it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm worried about the Golf battery...I usually drive every 2 or 3 days, albeit mostly short journeys. It'll be stood for 6 days this time...and possibly more after that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my problem I'm eating far too much and of course drinking as well because there's nothing better to do. Once I get a can of petrol tomorrow I can sort the lawn and garden out that'll take an entire day for both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn’t really been used apart from one motorway journey when I got it, and a couple of short shopping journeys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm putting it on by the day and I'm only been on day 2 at home from work. Also my body clock is telling me to get up early , anything from 3am to 6 am. You would have thought most people would stay in bed as they didn't need to go to work . Alcohol isn't making me sleep any more hours. Lol I feel like I've got jet lag without the flight!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomsFocus Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 At least the sun should be an hour later tomorrow...had that blinding me through the paper thin curtains at about 6am every morning so far...

I live not far from our town bypass and a housing building site. Without that noise it's so quiet. But the ***** birds have made up for it. The dog keeps going out chasing them every 5 minutes in the garden. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say that, I've been waking up a little early around 9-10am when I normally would wake up from 10:30 to 11:30 on a normal holiday if I'm not going out to hospital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAIDER32 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I don't like my PC's 8TB Media Drive throwing a wobbly, I was just thinking of ordering parts to rebuild my old PC as a Home Server and boom!, my Media Drive freezes and disappears while I'm copying to it, Rebooting there's lots of clicking noises and is slow to boot up, reset BIOS and it seemed the drive was not showing up at all, Several reboots later and it listed in BIOS, luckily it's now booted into Windows fine and isn't making any more noise, I've lost all faith in this Drive now so making extra Backups while it still works, but backing up 8TB to external drives takes 2-3 days lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
