Lockdown Lookalike - the awful realisation......

Lockdown can be tough. I am homeschooling and am finding it hard. But after my shower this morning I looked into the mirror and the realisation hit me. I looked like the Welsh King's brother in 'The Last Kingdom'! He is not a pretty man - straggly hair, a bit fat and quite wrinkly. I was really shocked to see him staring back at me!!! Who do you look like since lockdown? Grin

@RandomGirl

Happy to spread a bit of joy.

You will rock your work video call ma doll.

Then ye can take a fuckin day off to nurse yer sair heid and bones. And maybe retreat to your dream chariot again for an afternoon of mindless telly. Wink

I was well overweight before this pish started. I dread to think how much my lurks have multiplied. I’ve probably outlurked myself.

I need to take a fuckin YEAR off from eating Grin

Tried to take a selfie to post, but 'the mirror crack'd from side to side'.

I took my extensions out...I look like this, with worst roots, bad skin and much much larger. FML

I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror after a shower this morning, reminded me of someone and I've just realised who. 90s wrestling star the British bulldog Confused

My hair looked like this after our walk today and I had this many wrinkles. I am only 40.
