Lockdown/Covid Check In
-
There are always going to be people that this affects more than others.
The situation is in place to "look after everyone" but not everyone can be looked after.
I'm just happy that we are not an Italy or Spain. I don't think NZ could cope with that type of death rate, long term.

Had been giving myself a rest from the board for a bit and clicked on this thread as I thought it was meant to be the 'personal stories' one.
Can we take the 'how well the govt is doing' stuff to NZ thread and away from here?
This one can be left as a bit of a sanctuary. -

This one can be left as a bit of a sanctuary.I must say I'm feeling a little covid thread fatigue this morning. All of us have our opinions about what is the best course of action and no one appears to be winning anyone else over. The cooking thread is probably today's favourite right now, the meme one has been too quiet to receive serious consideration

The pressure is on @MiketheSnow. He's turned himself into the Maximus Decimus Meridius of memes. Are we not entertained?

I'm not sure if this is helpful or not (or whether previously posted)?
Supermarket queues:https://www.howlongistheline.org/
Obviously needs people to use it to make it accurate, and I have only had 20 min waits for the 2 times that I have been, but not a bad idea if it is worse in some areas.

I had a two hour wait yesterday but I could wait at home as you receive a text and you have 5 mins to get there. I left the farm with about 10 mins and got the text half way to town.

@Snowy just had a look, there are at least 4 different Countdown Tikipunga lists...seems all down to spelling of the person that starts it.
My wife has found Pak'n'Save to be far and away the most efficient of the ones in Whangarei, in terms of waiting, product availability and just better organised.
I expect today to be worse with all the people panic buying today due to not being able to for a whole day tomorrow!

Highlight of the day: realising that Dominic Raab is a bit of alright.
Measure my day by that if you will.

Some may remember a post from a couple of years back, where I talked about the first porno I ever watched, and it's awesome soundtrack
Yesterday I found out this movie is on PornHub
Of course I watched it. It was made in 1980. It's all muff and moustache. It is an actual movie, with a plot and everything.
Vintage porn rules.

@mariner4life IMDB link or title?

The actors had much better names back then too

Week 2 of this lockdown had definitely been the hardest, fair to say people’s nerves are a bit frayed and fighting off cabin fever is getting harder every day.
Can imagine those living alone or in a new living arrangement might be finding it harder then others.
If you know someone in that situation please keep an eye on them say hi ( as we are doing with my oldest daughter who only just moved into a new flat 2 weeks before the lockdown and is finding it tough).
There’s an abundance of good feeling here and speaking for myself I appreciate how we are looking out for each other. Let’s keep it up -

@Virgil wow virg, are your kids grown up almost. I think I can remember when they were born on the fern. Am I imagining things? God knows we're getting fucking old!😄
I have a grown up daughter from a previous relationship and have 2 daughters who are 7 and 9 with my wife.

Got absolutely wankered last night. Hungover as shit today

I can't imagine my mental state if the racing wasn't on
