    Not as much as mothers day will on sunday... hope they defer it until later in the year so all the grannies can get hugs and kisses off the grandkids.

    I don’t think that will happen. I think when all this is over grannies will be getting plenty of hugs and kisses off the grandkids Mother’s Day or not.

    Patrick's Day crossed off. I have also removed the Eurovision and the Euros from the list. :/

    When I did this never I my wildest dreams did I think we'd be removing them.
    I honestly thought they'd be more chance of me winning the lottery.

    There’s a grandparents day on October 6th too. I think it coincides with world teachers day.

    So weird. :<

    Less events to cross off until Christmas, though?

    Eurovision being cancelled really hit the nail on the head for me. And they’ve cancelled the live episodes of the Voice UK.

    Some good news at least

    See Glastonbury has already been cancelled. Though I'd be amazed if any of the music festivals happen this year.

    Had a quick scan through the list and see about 4/5 things that could potentially be cancelled and that's just up till September!

    Yeah, Wimbledon, Tour de France, Leaving/Junior cert exams, All Ireland hurling & Football, all in reality in the firing line with a slim chance of actually going ahead... I just hope weather wise we get a decent summer otherwise theres a very real chance of people going crazy locked in their homes day after day after day for month on end.

    Anyway, I promised my wife I'd try to stay away from Covid19 wormholes today so must try harder to post about something else ;)

    I can't wait until we are crossing off Halloween, red coffee cups, Christmas ads etc.

    We will get there. Together. :)

    updated now and removed the Olympics. God knows what else will end up being cancelled, I say Wimbledon and the Tour De France will be called off too.

    With all the stress and uncertainty over them, might be worth knocking the state exams off the list too.
