'When Santa got stuck up the chimney he began to shout, you boys and girls wont get any toys if Corona wipes me out'.

I hope he’s wearing the right PPE and the elves in the workshop are following strict social distancing protocol.


Was I the only one waiting for “PS: Philip’s passed on”?

Just kidding, don’t wish to offend, but the rumours are everywhere atm. Seriously though, from what I could hear of it over my children’s fighting to the death, it was quite a heartfelt address to the nation. These are surreal times.

Someone on twitter reckons we should clap for the kids because theyre the bravest ones in this whole situation

Mine aren’t! They’re being little f****ers they’re spoilt (totally my fault!) and it’s hitting them hard we can’t just pop to the shop for unicorn ice cream although I saw glimmers of hope today my daughter spent two hours picking flowers and mashing them in water to make perfume (I didn’t tell me husband that bit ) it was nice she found something to amuse herself with

Collective round of applause for this thread......

keeping us all sane one (possible) psychiatric admission at a time

Will this be the year doesn't arrive

Depends what the travel restrictions are. Are the elves at the toy factory furloughed? Is Santa counting delivering all the presents his one form of exercise for the day? Should Santa be self isolating for longer-How old is he? All those mince pies...may have underlying conditions? Does he need to be social distancing? If he gets down all the chimneys then think of all the germs. Oh and can reindeer get Covid 19?

You can tell we discussed this at length in our house!

Just watching Antiques Road Show! It seems so weird watching big crowds of people all stood close together!

The queen seems like a lovely old lady, but she is a paid service that I can no longer afford. How do I cancel please?

 

[MrsGarcia]

I cried at the Queen's speech and I haven't even had a drink yet this evening. Lockdown, man, what have you done to me?

Santa is probably obese too so he’s in a higher risk category

It's rather strange how there's been no mention of the death rates in France on the UK news. 1031 people died on Friday in France, which is the biggest daily toll I've seen, yet not a peep in the British media. Given the UK is technically bordered to France via the Channel Tunnel, I'd have thought that many deaths in one day in a neighbouring country would get some attention.

The French figures are a mess at the moment, Thursday’s toll included 884 deaths in nursing homes that had taken place over the last few weeks. Friday’s figures also included 532 nursing home deaths that hadn’t been reported previously, meaning the daily figure without these deaths would have been 588. In reality France’s daily death toll is similar to the UK’s

The bigger question: would the elves be classed as essential workers?

these are the folk you want to talk to. they’re pretty busy at the moment what with the Disney movie and the “turning your back on your family“ malarkey.
it’s time consuming.

So little has been said about that recently. And of course nobody can travel for who knows how long. But I’d still like it to go ahead. The Mail must have stuff they’re holding back for this case. I want to know what it is. Yes me too, I think if H&M get a little clue to what the media (Because...

Taytos’s....what I wouldn’t give for those right now..

Is that your second Irish craps post today?!

 

[Londoncailín]

Is that your second Irish craps post today?!

Possibly my third. I did mention bono also

 

[stewpot]

Well you wouldn't, would you?

No I wouldn’t that’s why I said it... but the person I was replying to has had wedding invites for July, august and September so obviously some people are.

Started crying at the queens speech now the husbands scared I’m pregnant again as I’m usually not one for emotions can clarify I am not bless him

Tell him tomorrow and enjoy him being nicer for a bit.

I actually had a tear when I listened to the Queen. I feel like it’s quite something to have her address us in a time like this. It doesn’t happen often, and it really struck me that we really are at war with this virus.

I felt like it was so heartfelt, it got me in the feels quite frankly.

Me too especially moving the line about her and her sister doing a speech about the children and evacuees. Our children are missing everything that’s ‘normal’ to them. Friends, school, teachers, cousins grandparents.
I’m not ashamed to say I cried when I heard her speech.

This made me rage.
