What are the first things you'll want to do after the lockdown is lifted?

[Sweetener12]

I'll probably be hugging all my friends and throwing a party since it will be okay by then (I HOPE). And also going to the cinema, there are some really good movies I look forward to!

Drive to the woods for a run
Take the DC to the cinema
Go swimming
Get my hair cut

Have sex!

Get a haircut
See family
send my toddler back to nursery

See family and friends again. I miss them all so very much.

Go out for a date with DH.

Take dd to the zoo.

Go out for Sunday lunch.

Potter around the shops.

Go to the theatre.

So much! I just miss normal life.

Get a takeaway, go to the shops and take the dogs to the beach and get them back on three walks a day!

See the grandchildren, visit the hairdressers, and relax :)

See parents
Seaside day trip with ice cream
Go out for afternoon tea or just tea in a cafe
Have dinner out
Play dates with my friend's kids for DD

Sex

Yup. Sex.

Vaccinate the cat.

I know how to live it up, me.

Just wanted to add. Go to the library

Go to the beach and breathe the sea air

I'm with the PPs who are going to continue and see how things go. I think the lockdown will be lifted and we'll be back where we started and there'll be an upsurge in cases, so I'm going nowhere.

I think I've had it but until I'm sure via an antibody test ( whenever they're made available) I'm taking no chances!

See my mum.
Have an aimless mooch around the ships and meet friends for coffee.
Get dressed up and go out for a meal and cocktails.
Take the garden waste to the tip.

I'm so looking forward to

Taking our dog for a long walk on the beach
Going out to a restaurant with DP
Shopping for baby things - wheeling prams around and buying baby clothes

My guess is early June 🤞🏻

I'll be staying the fuck in until I can get a vaccine as I'm in the shielding group. Mentally preparing myself for this to be a long haul.

Continue staying in - CV is not just going to disappear overnight. I'm not risking seeing the elderly peopke I love & them getting it in a month or two anymore than I am now.

I will be waiting & seeing what happens for a while.

I'm not sure when it will feel safe to visit my 90yo Aubt & hug her, but that's what I'm looking forward to most of all.

Carrying on like this for another few weeks to see what happens when all these people come back into contact with each other.

^^. This

Lockdown won't be "lifted" the way the majority of people on here seem to think it will. I imagine there will be a programme of relaxing the current measures a bit. See what happens. And repeat. The government won't be telling people you're no longer in lockdown so you can all rush off to the beach, shopping centres etc.

go and see dp's kids

his exw has been a nightmare in lockdown - refused us access to them 'because there was a lockdown'

we sent the government advice that children were still allowed to see both parents but she point blank refused.

we love seeing his dcs and they have also been upset that we haven't seen them

Get a Tesco delivery.

Getting my roots done! I am already looking like a badger! However, I won't go until I am pretty sure it is safe to be in close proximity with another person. In the meantime I have ordered a straw fedora to wear when the sun shines to hide it!

Going to the pub on a Friday night.

Shopping! Haven't been to a shop for over 3 weeks now and I miss it!

Driving - not used car for over 3 weeks and I miss just taking off for a drive in the countryside.

Have my family over for a roast. Everyone is busy anyway so these things only happen on high days and holidays but it's always a great laugh when we do.
Watch and cry as my children hug their friends - my youngest in particular has really struggled with not playing with his buddies. He's so tactile. Thank goodness for siblings.
Pop out when I want for what I need...
Thoroughly enjoy a coffee in a cafe with friends.
Stop and chat to people in the street again without hurrying past (at 2 metres!)
Appreciate school so very much more!
Welcome seeing my clients in person rather than via a screen.

Oh and having fresh flowers in the house. I always have some on the go but not going to the shops means I haven't been able to buy any and I miss them!

Spend the night with my boyfriend (having lots of sex & cuddles)
Go fell running in mountains by myself
Cuddle my elderly parents and cook them a lovely family meal with lashings of wine & laughs.
Celebrate my 40th birthday
Belatedly celebrate all my best friends’ 40th birthdays
Throw belated celebrations for my DD’s and DS’s birthdays.
Belatedly celebrate my DBro’s birthday.
Have sex & cuddles with my boyfriend.
Oh, and have sex & cuddles with my boyfriend!

This is what concerns me - all the people wanting to go straight to see their parents and hugging them.

It’s the natural thing to want to do, but is anyone else thinking there is bound to be a rise in cases again if this happens?
