[xtras1]

and no Major as far as i am aware no one needy near me.

[Major]

So far U have only 3 neighbours.
The old Boy, the old girl and the retired bookie, I am not REALLY sure they are much older than myself if anything.
I would help the old girl if she would let me, I feel she will tell me to sod off if I push it.

The postman asked us all today if we were OK, needed anything

The community is advised by our government to do essenshul shopping and take a walk/exercise if one so desires, needs to.
I personally do NOT see many doing such here, some days there are more than other days but still very small.
Cue SB.
If you do not go out it is greatly reducing any help you can give to your community..

How doest thou SB help anyone during this tragedy??

How does going out help stop spreading the Virus in the Community ,,
Why do you need to go out ? you say you have a large Garden so why not exercise there ,
You have said you stock piled your larder and freezer so shopping is not needed .

As I said Before the virus scenario reminds me of Noel Cowards Song " Mad Dogs and English Men go out in the Noonday Sun "

[Major]

I go out for exercise and to stop going mad and become a boring old snowflake fart like you SB
We are told to go out for exercise if we want to do such, I am masked and gloved up, keep more than a social distance well away from anyone else I see approaching.

I have two friends in the village who have cancer. One is about 70 and the other is 50. The older one I ring every few days to see if she needs anything and we have a chat which she tells me she enjoys as she lives alone. The younger one is married but when she goes for chemo they drop their dog off and I have him for the day. She also like me messaging her for a chat.

I bumped into another friend today, and from a distance we chatted. She has run out of books to read so I will drop her a few off tomorrow as I cycle past.

That’s the sum amount of my good deeds at the moment.

Me thinks you may have got that wrong , The Government have said that no one over the age of seventy should go out in a public area .

But then with your MilitaryTraining you must be used to breaking orders issued by the Government . !

On the Government website it just says that those over 70 should be particularly stringent re social distancing. It doesn't say they shouldn't go out for exercise.

Good on ya Mal.

Don't let SB know you have a bike or he will report you for PEDALIN DRUGS, the TYRESUM twack. .

Did you hear about the Irish wolfhound who watched a courting couple ride down his street on a tandem and threw a bucket of cold water over them.

My brothers and I are taking turns going to visit my 88 year old mum, who hates being alone for even a day. We bring her food to make sure she eats, I bring her books to read. I spend the day with her and make her laugh and bring my speaker for my phone and play music and sing for her. She loves to hear me sing. We want to make sure she is alright or needs anything. She always hated being alone, but now with virus she is terrified and so stressed out. Other than that I am staying home alone so that when I do go to see her, I haven't picked anything up.

Thank you xtras, Yes she told me last night that if it wasn't for me and the others finally stepping up, she doesn't think she would make it through virus thing. She is not only lonely but scared.
