I live very rurally. Nearest neighbour over half mile away, nearest village about 5 miles. My husband has had to go away for a week, and he has taken my car as it needs some work doing on it whilst he is away. He drives a big white van. I could drive it, but narrow country lanes and limited visibility means I can’t unless an emergency really.
so I am basically housebound. I have plenty of food in, plus the dog and cat.
i need to get to town on Friday so prearranged with one friend for a lift. Other friends all know I am here, on my own. I sent them all invites to pop round for a cuppa any time. After 4 days now Not one has even sent a text asking if I am ok, do I need anything, etc. feeling very isolated- do I call them or should I expect them to get in touch with me?
