Wearing gloves possibly but a mask would be pointless especially if your van is liveried as they'd know you're a postie.

As for the clapping,

most of my neighbours supported the NHS by clapping then went straight back to the house parties they were enjoying.

You live in Downing street, newbie - and I claim my fiver!! :Wiiiine!:


ETA hope you're settling in well! :laughing:


If I lived in Downing Street I would bequeath you with a Fifty pound note before swiftly setting it on fire in the Bullingdon tradition.



Thankyou :Wiiiine!:

The silence was good, I had other things happening and was slightly less of a headless chicken.

I fucking hated the clapping.

We ended up getting masks, gloves and hand gel (which is great to wash your hands with after an open air piddle) and we still have them available after I brought the matter up with the powers that be and it's helping to cut down on regular sickness, one good thing about the pandemic is that (most) people have learned that wearing a mask stops you spreading airborne viruses and wearing nitrile gloves is good when you've got a leaky box of god knows what.

I was living on a mad busy main road at the time and the clapping in the eerie silence usually filled by arctics, tractors and double-decker buses really freaked me out, especially after spending the day in some dystopian Stepford universe. Trippy as fuck :off head:

Arctics as in natives from the Arctic?


No, big lorries.

I think you mean artics mate.

Having to queue outside supermarkets/doctors/chemists was such fun :grrrrr:




What are those with health conditions doing now?
Covid isn't mentioned hardly at all now. It's carry on as normal even go to work if able :dunno:


It's good to see you back under another new name but back the same.
The reports of your demise were greatly exaggerated. Clever trick getting your wife involved in the con though :pmsl:


Who do you think I am, maybe ask a staff member on here if I'm a regen or a new member, when did I die and who is my wife? Maybe she can come around and do the cleaning and ironing.
As for those with health conditions, on a personal note one has died(not covid) and one is still alive.
