Friend keeps sending pictures on beach by second home

A friend has gone to their second home with their family and keeps sending pictures of various members on their own on the beach nearby and in the massive garden with captions like ‘terrible thing self-isolation.’

AIBU to find this a bit annoying and crass?

Massively tone deaf and thoughtless. I'd ignore all communication from them.

Anniegetyourgun · 25/03/2020 11:26

Block 'em. Job done.

Reply with ‘twat’ and then block.

Does your friend host a property show on TV?

Lumene · 25/03/2020 12:35

Not as far as I know! Why?

Spam every post with pictures and news articles about covid and ask if they’re posting to cheer up the sick and scared people?

Wonkydonkey44 · 25/03/2020 12:45

Block em! Shouldn’t have travelled to their 2 nd home . Ignorant and crass!

Lucky cow!!!

I have just realised that the WhatsApp group they are sending them to includes a mutual friend who is having to be shielded at home as well. Just thoughtless really.

Lucky gits! A friend lives on a farm and sent pictures of them in the fields, I sent a picture of the mess my son has made in my teeny tiny flat.

It would be very tempting to advertise that her house is empty

JamesNesbittsBrows · 25/03/2020 16:07

Very unfair on local services to dash to second homes.

TARSCOUT · 25/03/2020 16:34

Maybe give them the heads up that they aren't giving hope they are just pissing everyone off?

In my rural county our one general hospital.struggles to cope in winter without an influx of 2nd home owners. They need to do home and I would tell them that too
