Rare P&O SUE Posted August 21, 2021 #24426 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Morning all. I had a busy day yesterday. Went into the office yesterday for my first full shift since March 2020! I was so nervous and didn’t sleep much the night before but it was ok. My team sit in a different part of the office now and it’s nicer there, not as hot! Phew! I’m going in once a fortnight. Then I rushed off for a lovely lunch with my old Lloyds friends. A busy day! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping to walk better after injections next week, but meantime can you tell me, once up the slope is it suitable along there for a very small mobility scooter? Some parts could be tricky but if you stick to the main paths I think you should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was our wedding anniversary (27th) and we decided that we would go out to one of our favourite local hotels / restaurants for a meal. It was lovely and very quiet - which suited us. Lovely meal and we now feel like 2 beached whales ! Can't believe that it is 2 years since our last cruise - we went to celebrate our 25th. In some ways the time has flown by, but in other ways it feels like a life time ago. Hubby probably thinks that may be as a result of 2 more years of married life ! Happy anniversary and I’m glad you enjoyed your meal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapau27 Posted August 21, 2021 #24430 Share Posted August 21, 2021 It is a cold 14°C and damp this morning. I hope everyone has a nice day and please stay safe 😷. We were shopping yesterday in an indoor shopping centre and around 80% of people were NOT wearing masks even shop staff where their own in shop announcement was to wear masks to protect staff.

Graham. And meanwhile, infection rates and hospitalisations continue to rise inexorably, even ahead of the forthcoming return of schools and universities, and the onset of autumn and winter when people start to move inside again. This is still not being taken seriously, despite clear warnings from scientists and doctors. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham. I still wear a mask and will continue to for the foreseeable future. Covid has not disappeared there are still lots of people testing positive. We still need to protect each other Michelle 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalos Posted August 21, 2021 #24433 Share Posted August 21, 2021 We have a very dull morning 17.c and very damp with plenty more rain expected today. Yesterday was more a medical day for us ,down to the hozzie for me in the morning . Then the Drs for Mrs Kalos for some blood samples to be taken . On leaving the Drs the Mrs said the doctor was telling her about a shortage of sample bottles for the bloods. Not sure if this was our practice or a national thing but lets hope they get it sorted soon as our doctors and nurses could do without this worry and it must be if our doctor is mentioning it to us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut006 Posted August 21, 2021 #24437 Share Posted August 21, 2021 A dull day here too and seems like it is drizzling as well. Looks like a day for inside jobs today. We are going to IOW next Friday, was there someone on here that recommended some good restaurants on the island a while ago? Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle We like the Crab and Lobster at Bembridge for lunch, but there are lots of nice places. There are other posters on here with better knowledge than me who I'm sure will give you some guidance. Have a great time Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tell people you're approaching an age you choose - but don't tell them from which side! Glad you got out for a nice birthday dinner and felt safe. Have a lovely weekend.

Graham. Mask wearing is definitely fading out around us, Mrs YP and me were the only ones in Costa this morning wearing them. Probably 50/50 in Aldi on way home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
