Six of the Best!!

Post by Northern Lass »

So we are now allowed 6 others to mingle and jingle with.

Only outside though!

So is that a different 6 each time?
And at different times of the day?
or
Just once a day...

so 6 at 9am
another 6 at 12noon
half a dozen at 6pm
and so on.

So by the end of the day I could have met a Whole football team and their opponents and their fans!!
So much temptation....but is it sensible?

Clear as mud!
and nothing like spreading the joy is there!

:shock:

Poor thing!

I went for a covid test yesterday and heard today that I tested negative for the virus - not surprising since I barely see anyone at all in my "normal" life, let alone now!

I was selected for some research thing, probably because I agreed to one about bone marrow cancer a while back, expect I am filed under "soft touch" now.

I had the nose and throat swab done (not as bad as I feared, though I had a sore throat afterwards) and some blood taken, so in a few days I will get to know if I have antibodies - which seems unlikely but I guess they need low-risk people in the study too. So that's me doing my bit for science :-)

Yes NL you can :?

6 at a time... :eh: Yes!

All a bit odd.
I am so looking forward to it though! I just need my hands tying behind my back to not cuddle our grandkids! That will be hard... :roll:

My husband had a test the other week, negative so back at work.

Just keep clean, wipe everything down.

I used to be, let them get dirty, get some germs in while young...but not so sure now? :roll:

It is utterly ridiculous...they should just not have any restrictions as to how many
you can see because the way they have allowed it will just open it up anyway!

If you can see 6 from different households
those 6 can see 6 from different households
and so on and so on

might as well throw your hands up in despair

I feel it is out there now ....we have to live with it so need to alter our lives
to social distancing and bear that in mind when seeing anyone be it 6 or 66 or what ever.....
.hmmm 666 why does that number seem familiar

:shock: :o :evil: :twisted: :twisted:
