Can we form a little huddle please?

In fact it would be lovely to speak to any mnetters on lockdown in Tenerife or other Canary Islands.
So many people have left our apartment block, Norwegians and Danes gone, Swedes following shortly.
I’m starting to feel like me and dh are the last brits left.

Support group needed 🙏
Staying strong.

In taxi
Feel so tired and emotional
Taxi driver tells me there’s a case of cv in the town
Schools are closing
Exams cancelled

I feel like the older generation has ruined the lives of the young ones
Heartbreaking
I do hope your relatives get on the next available plane
Taxi driver said one of his colleagues paid €1700 for a flight. Has his own apartment and booked one way ticket

A good nights sleep has done me the power of good.
Been in to town today to stock up on essentials for the lockdown.
It’s weird, like I’ve returned to a different country to the one I left.
How are the rellys?
Spoke to my friends still in Tenerife..they think they are coming back on April 23
Somehow I don’t think so
Hopefully I’m wrong

We managed to scare them into action @Dowser. They've been on the phone to Easyjet all day and are trying to get a Drs appt to see if they can get prescriptions for their medicines.

If they can get the meds they could probably work something out with their hosts to stay on for the forseeable. It's not a hotel so hopefully won't have to close.

Glad you're feeling a bit better! Crazy time, huh?

Certainly is
What happened with your relatives Autumn
Did they stay or did they go?
It’s been nice to have a bit more freedom here....at least go for a walk out while exercise is still allowed.
I imagine the whole airport is completely closed now.
