Strange times

Have to say some partners are hard work when it comes to family and missing people - but i have taken hard approach and i'm mean and nasty

Sounds like some family members are not convinced the virus can get them p'raps :unsure:

You stick to your guns, mfw!(y)

Christmas is only one day a year. Most people don't even bother with the original reason for celebrating it, it's mostly just a major consumer-fest now.

I know it's hard not to see family & friends on the day, but what about staying safe now to be able to be alive and well when we can all meet up down the line, not just legally but safely too?

Won't be able to meet up with anyone if we're dead (or maybe knackered by it!) before then...!(n):(
 
Strange times indeed.

For the first time in 31 years we were not ferrying folk on Christmas day to a dinner with other lonely people
before taking them home after.

This year we had a dozen parcels to deliver to them on Christmas eve.

Fortunately Christmas day was sunny and cold here and we were able to go for a loooong walk mid morning before
dinner which helped break up the day and prepare me for the alcohol and TV.

We had our son who lives in Preston city centre round on christmas eve ( 10 minutes ) to drop presents off etc. etc. him, me and wife were masked up and kept our distance.

Went to daughters on christmas morning ( 30 minutes ) mainly to see the grandson, same again we all masked up and kept our distance except the grandson.

He wanted me to teach his daddy how to fly his new drone because i`m a lot better at flying it than he is :ROFLMAO:

That`s it front gates now closed and padlocked, i`ll open them up again at Easter when we take him his Easter eggs, CV-19 permitting of course (y)
 
Apart from the masks dont work, I would stay well clear of folk for now & dont handle anything without gloves, letters parcels fueling the car/van & be very careful with touching goods in shops, cloves cloves cloves.
 
Gloves are only as good as the knowledge of the people wearing them. Disposing of them and removing correctly is paramount as easy to spread bugs to yourself. Best to thoroughly wash and gel anyway in addition. We use gloves just in petrol stations, remove carefully and dispose before getting back in the car and disinfect keys, handles and hands after.
And don't suck our thumbs either!!

Yesterday I jumped straight in shower after taking neighbour to A&E.
I hadn't planned to go up the hospital, but they sent a taxi after I escalated 999 call. Was busier there than shops.
 
Sanitizer, goods/food wiped down. Gloves petrol/cashpoint etc. Social distancing very little contact with others if possible. Work face covering, face shield and gloves.

At the beginning, before masks, i wore gloves to stop myself touching my face, though I havn't been out much.
 
Sitting here in the house with the mutt ,watching tv,wife working at hospital night shift ,me and some san miguel ,just thinking we should be away in the van ,I went out today started it up and ran up to working temp ,
I really hope we all observe the rules of lockdown etc then we can hopefully get back to some sort of normalli next year
so folks fingers crossed we can all get through this period and get that light at the tunnel end in the new year
stay safe and well friends

I reckon march 2021 all will feel much better.
