This staying at home is driving me mad. I'm usually out helping people and dealing with councils, bailiffs, housing offices and benefit agencies. I need normality but I want to stay alive. So I'm staying home.

Once this virus is under control i'm sure that a lot more people will require your assistance in the coming months/years ahead from the toll of this pandemic... stay safe for now .
I've not left the house in six or seven weeks but ive been fortunate to have my groceries , medical supplies etc delivered and i thank those people putting themselves at risk in doing so.
The least i can do is follow the advice given .
Being stuck at home it saddens me to see those around me , although loosely sticking the guidelines given , are knowingly putting themselves at risk and more importantly the health of others too.
Its fine to shop for 'essentials' , however twice, sometimes three times a day ... how many 'essentials' do you need in a day ?... As ive already stated , ive been fortunate to have deliveries but its quite obvious the guidance is being skewed to suit . im not talking about a little shopping , bags up on bags daily , then the wife/husband goes out in the car to get some more.... daily.
People in and out of other peoples houses , cleaning cars in the street when its safer to do that in the driveway when you have one ... the list goes on.
These same people then stand clapping and banging pots and pans on a thursday and place rainbows on their houses and cars as if that suddenly makes their actions acceptable...thats not helping them , its helping you.
These people are then going on to 'gossip' and socially attack others online whilst they are no better themselves.
Its not my place to name , shame and gossip on here or elsewhere ... but for those that do , think before you do.
I too , clapped for our NHS and also adhered to the one minute silence for those that passed helping us to survive , please dont let those sacrifices go in vain.
