Corona Bingo...

Three friends now lost mothers to the virus. Can't see them before they died and only about 4 people at funerals

Far too many have died with this virus. If only we had accurate numbers of how many died solely of it, perhaps a lot of these knee-jerk measures - like restricted numbers at funerals - would have been avoided.

You're never going to get accurate numbers per se but the jump in the national death rate when driving has been drastically reduced suggests it's one hell of a lot

Sad but true ....

It is an utter shitfest... 

And there are still bedwetters that think it is brilliant.. 

I have been keeping a careful eye on the Facebook posts of my colleagues during this...far too many enjoying it. Utter mongs. Do hope that I'm involved in the selection process of who stays...

To be fair I've started treating this as a paid holiday purely so that I don't lose my remaining marbles (lost too many in this place as it is  ). I'm keeping my eye out for other jobs but the way things are unless I want to go into care work there isn't that much out there.

Four tough calls today. Nod going bonkers, Miss I, my sister and Suzi all having meltdowns. My ear hurts

Sis is positive but mild (UK), family all now in isolation. Staying put here despite general EUphoria about moving to next stage on Monday...
