When this self imposed "Lock Down" is all over?

Ultrflat

What are the 5 things you can not wait to do.


1. Drink as much Guinness and eat as many toasties as I can.
2. Get the ride
3. Catch up with my friends
4. Pay of my bank loan
5. Go see my parents, they don't live in Ireland any more.

So, what are yours?

1. Continue to stay anti-social

That's about it really.

Choosing to stay inside away from everyone.

This being forced to stay inside away from everyone is tough, it brings out my argumentative side.

1 Visit parents and children
2 Visit dear friends
3 Walk along the Blueway outside Kilsheelan
4 Go to work
5 Have brunch in my favorite coffee shop

Lets not be species-ist, Scoff a pangolin while you're at it!

See my son. 2 weeks so far so it'll be a minimum 4 weeks before I get to see him in person rather than a video call.

Get out for a few pints, see the misses and other friends. I volunteer for Alone so getting back to evening visits will be good. Dying to get back to the office too, I'm not a fan of remote working at all. Just to get out and about and do "normal" things.

Sneer at the dog as I go outside without her.

The problem with this is there won't be a specific date to say it's all over

September 23rd looks promising.

Go for a pint in my local but maybe not the first weekend they are back open. I'd say the first few pints out of the taps Will be fun to drink.

Swap that. Can’t play pool with a rope.

Head down to Kerry to play some of the links courses down there. And at least half a barrel of porter as well over the days.

Chalk McHugh

Have a good chat and laugh with another human, face to face, without a worry in the world. That would do me just fine.

You can get a take away now!

I'm looking forward to booking flights and getting tickets to the many gigs I want to go to. I can't wait for my first Guinness in Grogans.

Book a babysitter and go to dinner together in peace. Love my kids but two of us working from home together and minding both of them is exhausting

1) Hold a chicken in the air
2) Stick a deckchair up your nose
3) Buy a jumbo jet And then bury all your clothes
4) Paint your left knee green Then extract your wisdom teeth
5) Form a string quartet And pretend your name is Keith

adaptation is the only real hereditary trait of survival value. not strength, speed, intelligence or health.

I can but I wouldn’t chance one. Even a chicken fillet roll would do instead of a takeaway once we can again.

Things probably wont return to normal til they have a vaccine.
No summer, long winter,this year.

Rather than list all the things I will do straight away. Here are a list of long term changes I will try to make when this is over.

1. Stop shaking hands. This pandemic has brought to my attention how quickly germs can spread. I don't need to shake a person's hand and so will strategically bow before a person initiates a hand shake. That should sort that!

2. Get more exercise and visit gp more. I hear about all the high risk people and thinking I don't want to be in that category when the next pandemic hits.

3. Try to be more social with close friends. Keeping in touching online is great but now I realise face to face interaction is very important. So I will try to arrange more lads nights, bbqs, roadtrips etc.

4. Try to put myself in other people's shoes more often. As a thought experiment try to imagine what it is like to be on the front line of this pandemic. I shudder thinking of it. I imagine there will be many individuals suffering PTSD after this. Especially in countries with such high death tolls. Hopefully it won't be the case in Ireland.
