Keep posting for our mental health please

I think there are going to be a load of 'I am spartacus C' posters soon!
I hope she is here!
She can confirm her identity by telling us the colour of her car, and B's.

SallyLovesCheese · 19/03/2020 09:54

It's better than The Masked Singer! Grin

Well, when I say tell 'us' we will be relying on @originalcatlady to verify car colour and maybe house number as well.
Come on C, you know you want to!

LargeGinOnTap · 19/03/2020 14:13

Haha love c

On gransnet, someone posted that their son’s neighbour is refusing to leave their house and having other people do their shopping for them, because they don’t want to lose their parking spot

Any of that @originalcatlady lol

@Bluetrews25
What a clever idea! Kind of like something 'Vera' the gardening detective would come up with🤣🚗🚘🚙🏎

@Weenurse
Thank you a zillion times for the sacrifices you are making to help all the people who are ill with this covid 19, and all the others you help on a daily basis. You are a rock star. I'll ask God to put a hedge of Protection round you so that you will remain healthy...🙏👍☝️👏🦸‍♀️🏥🎖🩺🩹.
Weenurse, I've heard there are blood shortages...do you know if it is because people just aren't donating now? Sorry, very off topic !

Sissymate2 · 19/03/2020 16:31

I don't know if this is allowed on MN, but whilst I wait for Alphabet Streets updates, I've been following the thread about " what food won't get eaten" Everyone is going in their cabinets and dragging out old tins with expiry dates from 10 years ago, etc.🤣 I don't know how to do a link but hope you can find it. Let me know if you need more info. One MNETTERS DH swears there's a frozen packet of breast milk at the bottom of the freezer and her DD is 6years old!
@originalcatlady
You'll have to get your DH to dig around in your cupboards and fridge as we wouldn't want you to neglect your duties of peeping and reporting.👀

Sissymate2 · 19/03/2020 16:33

Thread is " what food item won't get eaten" by clever thanyou in the AIBU section

What times is Mrs B due back?

elizabethdraper · 19/03/2020 23:14

@Sissymate2 my baby will be 6 at the end of April, I have 4 bags of breast milk in the freezer.

We are in Ireland, husband has been joking about using them during the lock down.

One day I will get some breast milk jewellery made. HmmShockGrinStarHaloConfusedBlush

Sissymate2 · 20/03/2020 01:51

Oh, elizabeth! You might just start a "new thing"! 🤣

Weenurse · 20/03/2020 07:06

@Sissymate2 I am in Australia so it has not hit us as hard yet. A lot of frightened, sick people and families who struggle to understand why we are limiting visitors and visiting hours.
DD1 is doing a thesis on homeless and charities and is finding the huge donations at the time of the fires is being reversed now with no one donating and charities struggling.

Weenurse · 20/03/2020 07:07

So who is where tonight? Is C still in 1/2?

OlaEliza · 20/03/2020 14:25

Does B do something she can do from home?

originalcatlady · 20/03/2020 14:49

She doesn't but it's also not essential work...

OP posts:
originalcatlady · 20/03/2020 14:50

Today no one is home, except C, currently in X Hmm

OP posts:
PenguinsOnParade · 20/03/2020 14:52

C needs to go shift into 1/2 then self isolate for the foreseeable future.

Saying that, what will we all do if all of Alphabet Street ends up locked down and no-one dares to move? Shock

originalcatlady · 20/03/2020 15:18

I'll be reporting on who has the reddest face watching at the window and who is still in their dressing gown 🤷‍♀️😂

purplecorkheart · 20/03/2020 15:43

Poor Mr B, it must be a terrifying prospect of being stuck with Mrs B 24 hours a day. At least he gets a break when she goes to work.

sunshinesupermum · 20/03/2020 15:46

Why is C in X? She needs to move pronto into 1/2

purplecorkheart · 20/03/2020 16:26

She is probably waiting till B rounds the corner and C will then move into the royal parking spot while giving the royal wave to b

OlaEliza · 20/03/2020 17:45
