Week 5 down???

[Red5]

Evening boys and girls, how's everyone doing?? Just clocking in to ask folks and checking on you all...looks like this'll be going on a little while longer so hope we're all keeping our sanity and sense of humour's in tact.
Just remember that folks are around for you if you want to message, chat, reach out to the pit of southwestbikers for support or to rip the piss, which ever floats your boat

Stay safe and take care everybody

Got to say doing well under lock down my fear is more when they let us out as fully expecting a 2nd peak and more deaths.

Actually under lock down getting to have so much fun and loads of online activities that your able to do.

Well my furlow lasted a week Annette’s work circumstances changed & the boss said I could go back as we are still busy so back out causing chaos on the roads
Got to say there’s a lot more traffic on the roads now than a week ago

We're still furloughed here.
House and Garden looking pretty up together, just that damn bathroom ceiling to paint.

Had time to play in the garage though and also got some key worker activities in for good measure.

Stay Safe all and my Number is below if ya fancy a chat. No heavy breathers though (that's my other line).

Still doing jobs that I classas essential and leaving the less urgent ones. Cleaned my lockup out this week and found my track bike lurking under a tarp at the back. Will now get around to repraying bike that I was going to do three years ago.

Still working far too hard delivering all those essential items people need. Compost, top of the list, followed by grass seed, weedkiller and plants.

And no, I don't work for a garden centre. Just a national parcel company in the pocket of probably the largest garden supplies company in the UK, which, as nobody else is sending parcels out, can't keep up with demand and pretty much fill our warehouse with their crap!

But, I've requested lighter duties from next week, so looking forward to getting out on my electric mountain bike to do a bit of trail riding now the local lanes have dried up

Flippin' heck dude, wishing you well and that you're fully recovered. Great to hear you're in the clear to get back to work...

[Red5]

Looks like a varied approach to dealing with it all. Sorry for the rain this morning, washed the car yesterday and left cutting the grass until today

Good news that you're out of it J.

Were you tested ? Before ? After ?

Do you know where it came from etc. ?

China, obviously, ask that bloke that knows the cure, he said it's the Chinese virus ...

[julesh]

no testing I had to self isolate, then phone 111 and get an over the phone diagnosis, but when you cant taste anything at all, go to bed cold wake up with the bed sheets soaked in sweat, and have a continuous cough that makes all your stomach muscles go into spasm...its pretty obvious something isn't right
guessing it came from work, I work on the new Hinkley Point build 5000 people of all races from all over the world all enclosed in a small area sharing buses,canteens,toilets etc...was bound to happen

[MellowYellow]

Must have been scary.

Keep well, and a good story for the future.
