The other thread is filling up fast so setting up the foundation for our new evil lair. One where we follow real guidelines, not made up ones, make sock cocks ,ruin hair and bemoan the shortage of Spanish soldiers.

This is where we'll keep each other sane or descend into madness together... depends on the day.

Tbh I just let mine be.

If they are dumb enough to get into touching distance to DD or the cat, then they deserve their fate. Either eaten by the cat or stuck by DD in her pet cemetery , sorry bug safe keeping area.

I am worried about the lack of standards during the coronavirus pandemic. Where have all the pedants gone? Mrs Malaprop is running riot as people climb over themselves to be more observant of the ROOLZ than their co-posters.

Maybe the pendants are all now the posters yelling 'murderer's everytime someone coughs.

Or is a misplaced comma a symptom? I think we need a clap for dyslexics as they will have additional stress of not knowing if their inability to construct a sentence is a sign they are about to take up a precious hospital bed - we just have to avoid 6pm.

Gigabitten · 09/04/2020 07:47

why avoid 6pm? (Sorry I'm missing something)

Please can I join this thread? I NEED it.

My batshit crazy neighbour who I got shopping for last week told me I have to wipe my cat with anti-bacterial wipes when he comes in.

I wish I was joking.

Gigabitten · 09/04/2020 08:15

I swear all common sense has been disinfected and thrown out the bleached window.

So your cat should get poisoned cleaning itself from the anti-bacterial wipes residue?

let alone the fact it wouldn't work anyway as ITS A BLOODY VIRUS. TWO completely different species.

@Gigabitten I know, her lack of knowledge of basic scientific principles is staggering

Oh Jesus, is that clapping lark still going on?

Maxandezra · 09/04/2020 08:39

morning all,
well I feel I must have sinned because I actually had a lovely day yesterday and did not spend my first day on annual leave wailing! Managed to drag 5 out of 6 teenage dc out for a walk, with DH and our 3 dogs. As you can imagine that made for a big group of us and the looks we got from folk who clearly thought we MUST all be form different households! Anyway, we alked through our local woods and the dogs had a swim in the lake, it was all very lovely. then we came back and played badminton in the garden , had a BBQ and then toasted marshmallows round the fire pit. We drank wine, played music and had a generally fab time.
Now awaiting the police to come and question me on why I felt entitled to have FUN at a time like this....hey ho.
Today will mostly be spent doing very little....I might actually bake some hot cross buns which will avoid the risk of pissing people off by daring to BUY them with my next lot of shopping and also please the lockdown purists who seem to decree we should now be baking EVERYTHING daily ! (I do nomrally make hot cross buns every year !) Will see if I can be bothered later!
Hope all the spiders are happy and running free.

oh god, forgot it was clap night again.....

Better not take the bins out tonight then .

Morning murderers and reprobates.

How many made up rules can we break today?

For anyone with children with SEN the government has updated their guidelines to make extra allowances for them. Hopefully that makes things a bit easier for some of you.

I did yoga in the garden this morning, and am now sitting outside with a cup of tea. I haven’t listened to the news and I’m feeling relatively peaceful and content. There are multiple sins right there.

PaulHollywoodsSexGut · 09/04/2020 09:05

Maxandezra · 09/04/2020 09:28

smile Grin I know, what can I say! Police havent arrived yet though....Hmm

that new advice is quite senisble isn't it and will hopefully help a lot of people manage a bit better.

Bananabixfloof · 09/04/2020 09:29

wants to yell "it's not aloud ffs" whilst taking off multiple pairs of gloves 🤔

Morning peeps, another day in paradise, may need more wine later. Am bored as fuck. Have been on here, the farms, faceache, my emails, candy crush, running out of stuff to do and its half 9.
