Two days ago I said "Only 200 are dying a day" then realised how bad that was. Written down it didn't seem as bad!!

Please stay back - to an old lady near the local shop who just wanted to chat but was coming far too close. 😢😢

‘Thank you very much’ to a neighbour who very kindly asked whether I needed anything when she went shopping. I did - something that would have cost less than £1.00 in Aldi. She returned with it, but had spontaneously decided to buy me 3 lots of pre-packed fruit and veg at £2.00 a pop. I felt obliged to give her the money, but tell me, do people really pay £2.00 for a few carrots in a plastic box?? £8.00 for 4 items that would have cost less than half the price in Aldi! I know I could have refused, but she was so pleased to have been able to help me, bless her.

‘Let’s do some therapeutic cleaning.’ Wtf.
