Bit off topic but I need to vent.
So atm I’m more pissed off with my neighbour than with the Ingham’s and I didn’t think that was possible.
So 2/3 weeks back my neighbour who I’m quite friendly with said her son had a high temperature and a sore throat. I advised her to ring 111 for advice and they told her to self isolate for 14 days.
4 days in she texts me to say her son seemed better and thinks it’s just tonsillitis. She takes him down town for breakfast
I told her she should still be isolating and the fact he has asthma just made it more risky for him and others, however she knows better
Anyway haven’t seen her for a while but yesterday was hanging washing out in garden and she was talking to me from her garden.
She said she knows her son had coronavirus (I personally don’t think it was) From what I’m hearing from people who have had it, he surely would have been much more poorly especially with his asthma.
Then we get onto schoolwork. I say my girls have been doing 2/3 hours of schoolwork a day. She says the school sent through work but her son said he can’t be bothered to do it. He’s yr 9 atm so quite important IMO. Her response to him was “oh don’t worry about it then”
She tells me he’s been playing fortnight all
Day every day and he was still in bed at 2 in the afternoon.
He has a disability and had an operation last November on his leg and he has and I mean has had a lot of time of school already. (she also keeps him off with anything trivial like a sore throat) she thinks because of his disability that his future is bleak and he shouldn’t worry about education and his GCSEs
The thing that really pissed me off the most though is that she had a Tesco shop delivered last Thursday which she said she booked a while ago. But then to top it off she had an Asda shop delivered today and she told me she’s having another delivered Thursday. I’m like so that’s the reason why I couldn’t get a slot or some other elderly or vulnerable person couldn’t get one. Her excuse was she only
Likes To spend the bare minimum of £40 needed for a slot.
Her son’s dad has offered to pick up
Essentials but obviously she hasn’t taken up the offer it’s so selfish.
Sorry for the long rant I’m just so angry right now.
