Coffee and cake in a coffee shop.

I’ll go over to my Scottish friends house sorb my wee DD and we’ll hug, the girls will play. We’ll have a drink and chat about what we’ve been through and what the future holds. And be very glad to see each other alive and well.

A trip to the Victorian spa at Crieff Hydro hotel, I've wanted to go for ages but not been able to justify the expense.

A meal in my favourite restaurant, I've been craving a good curry.

A walk along the pier to watch and smell the sea.

Any kind of face to face chat with anyone outside my household.

@Whome91 I love the idea of saving your shoes!

Rockbird · 24/03/2020 08:54

Definitely a cup of tea and a hug from my mum and dad. I have been seeing them, or rather, they've stood inside the open front door and I've stood at the bottom of the path and chatted but even that is out now. I miss sitting next to them on the sofa Sad even if they do drive me nuts!

A charter holiday. Never been able to afford one before now.

TheEmojiFormerlyKnownAsPrince · 24/03/2020 10:56

I’m going to treat myself to the holiday in Lake Como that l had booked for the summer

BubblesBuddy · 24/03/2020 12:23

We have a big holiday booked for the end of October. I’m hoping we can go. It was a special treat for our 40th wedding anniversary! I’m holding onto the idea of going!

Deathraystare · 24/03/2020 12:44

I said to my friend that when it is all over (I presume it will be) we will all be treating it like D-Day! There will be lots of parties I reckon. My friend's birthday is next week so I said later on (when all ok) we should have a celebratory meal!

Graffitiqueen · 24/03/2020 22:45

I'm just going to go out. Out for lunch, out for drinks, out to the gym, cinema, for a walk. With friends, colleagues, family. I'm going to have a massive party and just invite everyone.

Clawdy · 25/03/2020 20:12

A trip to a feel-good musical at a theatre, with a lively audience!

I am in three months isolation as I am over 70 with a medical condition which could kill me if I caught this virus.
The day the three months is up is my DS2's birthday so I really am going to enjoy it.

CorianderLord · 25/03/2020 20:33

A naw yoga mat. Mine has been commandeered by DP

MuchTooTired · 25/03/2020 20:33

I’m going to get (and keep!) a job. I’d just gone back to work after being a sahm for a couple of years and I’ve been let go. My kids will go to nursery which I know they’ll love, but I can’t afford it without being in work.
A holiday somewhere sunny.
A couple of takeaways.
Mainly I’m going to treat myself to going out of my house and do whatever I want and never take that freedom for granted ever again.

pippong · 25/03/2020 20:34

If I'm still alive- a nice new summer top

AGnu · 25/03/2020 20:41

A day out with my immunocompromised friend. I miss her already!

A family holiday.

A proper church service.

Some new clothes. I only go shopping when I really need clothes & was reaching that point before this happened. I can never tell what something's going to feel like from the online pictures so I'm reluctant to order all the clothes in the world in the hope that I might find one pair of jeans that feel ok for my sensory issues. On the positive side, I can wear PJs all day every day at the moment!

LargeGinOnTap · 25/03/2020 20:52
