Lurker and occasional contributed here.

Paid cash for an ice cream. In your face, Covid.

Still in a fish and chip torpor.

Best meal I've had all week.

Checking in, only a sporadic poster but keeping up with thread.

Peed off as suspect schools will delayed with the fuss the unions are kicking off. Not that ds was in a year that's earmarked to go back at first but was hoping he might get a few weeks which even if wrap around cafe isn't happening would help me with work and make him happy.

On the positive side, dd's nursery are making all the right noises and we live close enough to the sea so we can travel there without being accused of murdering too many people

but my seaside will have chips , doughnuts AND mr whippys this weekend!

Daffodil101 · 15/05/2020 21:02

Where’s that? I’m going to come and bring loads of people and piss in the street

Mascotte · 15/05/2020 21:02

@TitianaTitsling me too. But my boy is getting more and more despondent. He's home alone with me 24/7 with only every every second weekend alone with his old dad to break the tedium. This is inhumane. And what's the bloody risk... minuscule.

checking into the new thread.

I read that visiting tourist areas thread, then read the Liverpool thread. I wanted to scream.

I am now signing off to watch a film and eat a full tub of Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough Ice Cream (was it an essential purchase though?)

Someone just posted on our reception WhatsApp page with a link to an article saying that 2 people have tested positive for coronavirus in a primary school about 10 miles away, with loads of sad faces. Not that they’re seriously ill or anything, doesn’t even say if they’re adults or children. Just that 2 people have tested positive.
I mean... what’s their point? We know coronavirus actually excuses and that gasp people get it. So what new information do they think they’re conveying?
All the parents who’ve said they won’t send theirs back have replied with a load of sad face emojis.
DH just told me I need to leave the WhatsApp group for the sake of my blood pressure.

Scotland's closing all tourism for the year. Total fuckwittery up here.

norfolk!! where we have webbed toes and drive tractors a lot lol.

Daffodil101 · 15/05/2020 21:05

Did anyone see the mayor of Liverpool in sky news? They shed how many deaths in Liverpool in the last 24 hours. He replied ‘probably 40.’ Correct figure was 11, as the reporter pointed out.

Notwithstanding his absolute ignorance (and stupidity in being interviewed without knowing the facts), he doesn’t think it’s safe to open their schools. Not opening ‘ until it’s safe.’

beentothecoastalready · 15/05/2020 21:05

and occaisionly (like now) display common sense .

beentothecoastalready · 15/05/2020 21:07

@Daffodil101 we have toilets that are OPEN!!! :) and lovely sunsets.

Daffodil101 · 15/05/2020 21:09

I just fancied pissing in the streets tbh. Never tried it.

Nyancat · 15/05/2020 21:09

Absolutely stuffed from delicious Chinese takeaway that I paid cash for tonight, 😱

Waxonwaxoff0 · 15/05/2020 21:10

Still got my hopes up for DS's school opening. The head posted a video of herself on the school website saying she is looking forward to having the children back as soon as possible.

There is going to be a drive in cinema opening up in my city in July! I'm planning on going.

MagdaS · 15/05/2020 21:10

Checking in, despicables.

Springersrock · 15/05/2020 21:10

I had a Dominoes

It was lush, but I wish Pizza Hut would reopen

On the bright side, Burger King reopens on Monday

Waxonwaxoff0 · 15/05/2020 21:11

I've been paying cash for everything this whole time. I like to put the change into a savings tin at home.

Daffodil101 · 15/05/2020 21:12

Do you lock the coins? I do

Daffodil101 · 15/05/2020 21:12

Lick!

beentothecoastalready · 15/05/2020 21:12
