Coronavirus and Washing


Have anyone else's gardening skills improved during lockdown?

I planted myself on the sofa in March and I've grown bigger ever since.

Masks

I went to the chemists to get myself a face mask but they had sold out.

They suggested that I try Boots.

I’ve been in A&E for 40 minutes now and I’m sure that it’s the nurses and doctors that I can hear laughing.

I got a cold call on the ‘phone today asking if I’d recently bought any gloves or masks.

They said that if I had they could check to see if I’d been mis-sold PPE.

Test Results

I just got my test results back. I'm COVID-19 free – whoo hoo!




So, let me get this straight. There's no cure for a virus that can be killed by hand sanitizer or soap?

Isolated



How long is this social distancing thing meant to last? My husband keeps trying to come back into the house.

Homeworking With Masks

It’s been a great blessing to be home with the wife for the last few months. We’ve caught up on everything that I’ve done wrong over the last 20 years.

Never Give Up




Does anyone know whether we can start taking showers again yet, or should we just keep washing our hands?

I'm Normally A Social Girl

I'm normally a social girl
I love to meet my mates
But lately with the virus here
We can't go out the gates.

You see, we are the 'oldies' now
We need to stay inside
If they haven't seen us for a while
They'll think we've upped and died.

They'll never know the things we did
Before we got this old
There wasn't any Facebook
So not everything was told.

We may seem sweet old ladies
Who would never be uncouth
But we grew up in the 60s –
If you only knew the truth!

There was sex and drugs and rock 'n roll
The pill and miniskirts
We smoked, we drank, we partied
And were quite outrageous flirts.

Then we settled down, got married
And turned into someone's mum,
Somebody's wife, then nana,
Who on earth did we become?

We didn't mind the change of pace
Because our lives were full
But to bury us before we're dead
Is like red rag to a bull!

So here you find me stuck inside
For 4 weeks, maybe more
I finally found myself again
Then I had to close the door!

It didn't really bother me
I'd while away the hour
I'd bake for all the family
But I've got no bloody flour!

Now Netflix is just wonderful
I like a gutsy thriller
I'm swooning over Idris
Or some random sexy killer.

At least I've got a stash of booze
For when I'm being idle
There's wine and whiskey, even gin
If I'm feeling suicidal!

So let's all drink to lockdown
To recovery and health
And hope this bloody virus
Doesn't decimate our wealth.

We'll all get through the crisis
And be back to join our mates
Just hoping I'm not far too wide
To fit through the flaming gates!

Time Off Excuse



We're going to have to stop using the expression, "avoid it like the plague" because it turns out that humans don't do that sort of thing.

2020 Shopping Problem


I can't wait for the non-essential shops to reopen. I've got loads of non-essential shopping that I really don't need to do.
