    Deskside at home in the home office/study/spare room, feeling much better today than yesterday evening when I was on a downer.

    A few bits and pieces of work-related stuff to tie up for the weekend and then planning to do a bit of art later on.

    Coffeeside looking out at the rain and the wet grass that needs to be cut. :rolleyes:

    Is anyone else getting anxious about the increase in numbers and the R rate, I don't want another lock down.

    I am not really feeling anxious about it but am enjoying the freedom that we have nowadays compared to back in April.

    I think in the medium terms a few people will ruin it for the rest of us. Some people you see out and about just dont give a fck. :mad:

    It's very concerning Leggy I agree . The amount of people who seem to think ooh lockdown is over so everything is fine again , is frightening tbh .

    Absolutely. I felt really relaxed about my covid test two weeks ago before surgery, because I knew I had been safe. Now I wear the mask all the time in company and being careful of where i go and who I agree to meet.

    Hope it goes back under 1 soon again.

    I think we will have to live with it, but I have no idea how they are going to re-open the schools.

    We need the schools open. The kids are seriously disadvantaged now after the chunk they missed but of course their safety and safety of staff is the most important.

    Got the lawns cut and nipped out to buy a few cans of Guinness (well ya have to reward yerself like), so I parked beside the shop which is next to a row of townhouses. As I was getting out of the van I saw 2 cats having a fight in the window of one of the houses, the one who lost the scrap went sliding down the net curtains and tore them the whole way down from top to bottom, split them in half the whole way down. Someone is going to come home later to a bit of a mess :D

    Having the aforementioned Guinness now and deciding if its Chinese or chippers with Netflix later. Could be worse. Then again...... It could be better, I could be going out for a pint later and chatting to people instead of sitting in the house and a cat assaulting a curtain being the highlight of my day. It's all about perspective :pac:

    I still only mix in the general public for groceries.

    I'm getting twitchy over the possibility of schools not returning.... The delays in leaving cert results does not fill me with confidence about the department of education's ability to get a job done.

    From the very beginning I wanted more information about the background of positive test results... Obviously not "Mary from 101 fake Street" detail but if there are 10 confirmed cases did 8 of them come from a house party? Was there a superspreader etc

    I could be wrong and it's a very long time ago but I'm fairly sure that the last girl I ever asked out on a date lived in that estate! Susie I think, 103 fake street. Google maps wasn't around back in those days so I never found her after. She didn't have a phone either she said! She musta been texting someone off her friends phone that night.

    I'd agree with ya about schools looking a little precarious at this stage, you'd ideally hope if things improve over the next month then they'll get the green light but it's probably back in the balance now.
    It would be a disaster for parents and kids alike and also the knock on effect to the economy as people cant go to work if they have nobody to mind their kids, plus the MASSIVE effect all this is doing on the mental health of the kids and parents alike.
    I think somehow they need to reopen and we learn to just live with this, if at all possible.

    Where did you learn these shenanigan tricks?

    Watching TV, wondering if I can make a cup of tea magically appear beside me.
